1/5 horrible copy
  by Careful Consumer (California)
I had to give this product one star so I could give a review. The one star is for timely delivery and nothing else. Copy was horrible, I've seen better pirated copies of DVDs. Audio wasn't great either. Completely unwatchable. I returned it and too gun shy to buy another one. A side note, maybe someone will come out with the complete set of Mamma's family.

5/5 My favorite show!
  by J. Kinzie (VA)
This has to be my all-time favorite show! I don't even care if the episodes are so-called "butchered". Mama's Family's not on tv anymore so as far as I'm concerned, I'll take whatever I can get. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE release more Mama!! I'll be the first in line to pre-order!

5/5 Mama's Family is awesome!
  by M. Swayne
Mama's Family was always one of my favorite shows growing up and I was really happy to find it on DVD. Sure, the collection isn't perfect, but I'm just happy that I can watch it again. Another great show that fans of Mama's Family might enjoy is Designing Women: The Complete First Season. It was a really big show and seems to have been completely forgotten. It's also very good.

5/5 I dont care if its syndicated... it sux but at least we actually have the show!
  by Alan Mansfield
Ok, its true. This is just about a horrible release since the shows are actually edited and with out special features. However, the other review talkin bout the carol burnett movie and what not, well that wasn't mama's family that was carol burnett. She is awesome! We all know that, but that is one feature that im fine with not having. But bloopers or cast interviews would have been wonderful... tho I'm not going to complain. If we actually do what that other review asks us and write WB and say we refuse to buy... I'm betting they would NOT spend the money to create the remainder of the series... its been 2 years so who knows but PLEASE DO RELEASE THE REST! I DONT CARE IF IT IS EDITED AS LONG AS WE GET IT! But who knows, Roseanne's DVDs startd like that and once the fans expressed disapproval they did finally release the unedited versions. Express your disappointment towards edited episodes if you must and no special features...but not a refusal to buy or else we may never see the rest.

4/5 Episodes not shown uncut
  by Indy Fan (Indianapolis, IN)
I understand that people were upset with the fact that the episodes were the syndicated episodes instead of the original uncut ones. I understand why people wanted to boycott the dvd but at the same time I'm really disappointed because I believe because the sale of the dvd wasn't as profitable as they wanted that this is the only season that will ever be released. I'm sorry to all the people that are totally pro boycott season 1 but I would buy season 2 right now if it was released even if it was cut. The dvd I bought for season 1 is better quality than my vhs tapes and it doesn't have any commercials.

Mama's Family - The Complete First Season Summary A spun-off sketch from the Carol Burnett Show, Mama's Family mined humor from a squabbling family in the Midwestern blue collar suburb of Raytown. The noisy clan was headed by Mama, a buxom, gray-haired widow with sharp opinions and a sharper tongue who shared her small house with her high-strung sister Fran, a journalist for a local paper.

Do you remember Mama? How could you forget her? As indelibly portrayed by Vicki Lawrence, formidable Mama put the "diss" in dysfunctional. Like Tyler Perry's Madea a decade later (but without the penchant for firearms or corporeal punishment), Mama dispenses no-nonsense motherly advice, discipline, and verbal kicks in the backside. She makes Dr. Phil look like Stuart Smalley. Thelma Harper does not suffer fools. She makes them--well, everybody--suffer. These include her sister, Fran (Rue McLanahan, The Golden Girls), a journalist who lives with her; her feckless son, Vint (Ken Berry, F-Troop), who moves in with his two teenagers after he is evicted from his house; and "bleached-blonde bimbo" Naomi (Dorothy Lyman, the original Opal on All My Children), who marries Vint by episode 4. Mama's extended family includes her two daughters, highfalutin Ellen (Betty White) and high-strung Eunice (Carol Burnett), who, to say the least, has issues. No one will mistake Mama's family for the Cleavers or the Bradys. They communicate mostly by screaming, and with put-downs often more cruel than comical. As a bystander tells Mama and Eunice in one episode, "Hold it, you're giving me a headache." One of the most memorable episodes is the one in which the Harpers must stick together when they appear on Family Feud (featuring a game Richard Dawson). Lawrence and Burnett, who appears in four episodes, share a palpable chemistry, honed all those years on The Carol Burnett Show, where Mama originated. As with those classic sketches, the best of these episodes, such as "Cellmates," in which Mama and Eunice are jailed after a disastrous birthday celebration, can make you laugh one minute and move you the next. Mama's Family is a great place to visit. Thank god we don't have to live there. --Donald Liebenson
