Editorial Review:
MY THREE SONS is a delightful slice-of-life comedy about the American family. The series chronicles the life of the Douglas family; a seemingly simple premise that was a huge hit with audiences and a keystone of the TV family lineup in the ‘60s. Fred MacMurray delivers a standout portrayal as Steve Douglas, an aeronautical engineer and widower raising his three sons alone.
My Three Sons - Season One vols. 1 - 2 Reviews:
What A Shame... 
2009-12-11 - I won't buy it either - fans need to stand up to CBS. I love this show and would have bought the entire collection (all 12 seasons) in a minute if it was faithful to the music and contained episodes in their entirety. Isn't the opportunity to watch episodes in their entirety and commercial-free supposed to be one of the highlights of owning the dvd's (and justification for the expense)? Why do media executives think fans will by just anything?
OH GOODIE! NOW WE CAN BUY BOTH VOLUMES OF THIS GARBAGE TOGETHER! 
2009-12-02 - I would like to state for the record, that I love this show and have been waiting for it's release to DVD for a very long time. The news of it's release made me very happy until I watched a few of the episodes.
The first thing I want to point out is you can find both volumes cheaper than they are listed here together! This 1/2 season set practice (which is an insult to fans) has got to stop! I mean really the studio's should be tickled pink that there is a buying audience for these old classics to begin with. Breaking the seasons into two or more volumes is a slap in the face!
To make matters worse the music has been changed and the episodes are edited! The music used for this release is so bad, it's completely un-watchable for anyone who remembers the original! What's the point of trying to preserve these shows if your not going to do it right!? The fan base for these shows aren't getting any younger and if the studio heads who put this junk together expect fans to be happy, they are sadly mistaken.
I love the show, but I have to say do not buy this sub-par garbage and send a message to these greedy slackers that we will not accept anything less than well transferred shows presented un-edited and with all original content intact!
Too bad it's not the original..... 
2009-10-22 - I, too, have decided not to purchase this item. Why would I want it revised? The original shows were too perfect, and I can't imagine them with different music and stiff sound effects. No thanks.
Studio jerks 
2009-03-03 - After seeing the review for this product I have decided not to buy this. I only look for complete series TV shows. It is a shame that the studio jerks in hellewood don't have the common sense to give what the buying public wants. We don't need to be spoon feed only what they want to give us.
My Three Sons - Season One vols. 1 - 2 
2009-02-15 - This is and was a great show 50 years ago. And it should be priced at a more reasonable rate like other programe of this era. Putting it in a vol.1 and vol.2 isn't going to work for me. The companies that use this Idea to up their profits are only killing their product. Most of these shows I would buy if they only kept the price down. If a product is priced right it will sell and sell alot and profits will be what you want but when greed becomes the high point we all lose so for these companies your cutting your own throat. As well as keeping these gems from the public. To name just a few "Streets of San Fransco" "The Untouchables"and the very good show" The Fall Guy " all have this practice which has killed the production of others.This to name a few their are more. I would have them all if they were out as one unit at a fair price. My Three Sons - Season One vols. 1 - 2This is not the time to have unfair high prices our economy proves this out.
