The Mary Tyler Moore Show - The Complete Seasons 1-4 Reviews: Mary Tyler Moore Show seasons 1-4  2008-10-07 - Shows good for what you get. Thought it was all the seasons that had been aired. Not so, it aired for 7 seasons. Where are the rest?
Soon there will be MORE THAN 4!  2008-09-02 - My review of seasons 1 to 4: Buy this set! At $15 a season for what is arguably
the finest sitcom in history it is worth it. It grew from a good if conventional first
season to something truly special in seasons 3 and 4. It had no harsh edges but
was funny and engaging and lacked false sentimentality. While mostly avoiding the
issues of the day it did present the steady growth and maturity of Mary Richards
(the lead character played by Ms. Moore) that fit the maturing of the feminist
movement in the 1970s and did so in a realistic way. But the writing and humor
always took first place (I can think of only one true "message show" and it was one
of the worst episodes of the series). BELOW is the truly important news though and
Amazon helped bring this about.
The great news for MTM fans (and I apologize if this has been posted here already)
is that a Fox executive has just announced they will now release the last 3 seasons
on DVD. Thank you Fox, Oprah, and especially the persistent fan base here at Amazon.
I had frankly given up on this happening as I thought the release of seasons 3 & 4 at
lower prices but still disappointing sales represented Fox's giving it its last "old-college
try." But apparently despite "financial realities" Fox realizes how special it is to own
the rights to MTM and that with so much else of lesser quality being released they should
complete the series on DVD. Again, thanks to all! And if you've never seen MTM, you
won't regret purchasing it. The writing, acting, and especially character development
are top notch!
More Moore, please! Finish the collection!  2008-09-02 - The MTM Show brings back lots of memories from the past when "TV sitcoms were funny!" Reality programming didn't exist in the 70s and thus creative writers were truly appreciated by the viewing public. My TV isn't on much anymore in the evening. Shame.
The Last 3 Seasons are coming soon!  2008-09-01 - I just read this info in the NY Times 8/31/08 - a release date was not given, but the last 3 seasons are on their way...
The most fun I've had watching television in a long time!  2008-08-30 - Watching these old episodes of The Mary Tyler Moore Show has been really fun for me. It has brought me back to a simpler time which sometimes you need in this complicated world. It's fun to watch how the show progresses even techniqually with each season. Lets face it, they just don't write shows like these anymore! Especially good to watch during the summer months when there are only repeats on anyway. the only criticism I would have is the that the editing was sloppy in some of the shows, but you might not really notice it and it didn't take away from enjoying them. If you are an MTM fan than you'll love these DVD's.
