"It's Gonna Be a Doozy!",
By
This review is from: Hazel - Season 2 (DVD)
"Hazel's" second season originally aired for 32 episodes during the 1962-63 TV season on NBC and the Peacock Network had the distinction of running the first prime-time sitcom In Living Color!While Season One was great in its own right (and placing #4 in the Nielsen's, its highest ranking of the five-year run), "Hazel" absolutely sparkled in color and this is how most fans remember it. It's fun to see the wonderful sets with their early '60s/Kennedy era decor, be it that cozy breakfast nook or the tasteful living room or the masculine decor of Mr B's den. "Hazel" is a time capsule of when ladies wore hats and gloves to go shopping, sales clerks were called just that, and everyone was polite and said "Yes, Ma'am", "No, Sir" and "Please" and "Thank-you". These episodes only underscore how crass, selfish and automated society has become in 45 years. Shirley Booth is absolutely loveable in the role. Every line reading and reaction is perfect, whether she's chuckling while telling an exasperated Mr. B her latest joke, or trying to mask her disappointment and hurt when she's insensitively left out of a dear cousin's wedding. Not even Bobby Buntrock's over-enthusiastic line readings can spoil the show. Fans have waited over half a decade for this show to continue on DVD. Shout Factory has done a wonderful job once again. **NOTE** See the screen grabs I posted in the Images section of this product. I don't get Antenna TV (which has been running the show lately) but the episodes look much brighter and colorful than I remember seeing them on Family Channel and WWOR back in the 1990s, although they are not remastered and there are blemishes and lines here and there on the prints. There are no abrupt endings on the opening and closing credits like there was in syndication and the original Screen Gems logo is present. The insert lists the episode titles, descriptions and original airdates. Let's all support this release so Seasons 3-5 come out as quickly as "Dennis the Menace" did (all four seasons in under a year). **UPDATE** Season 3 will be released May 15, 2012. A BIG thank-you to Shout! for finally making it happen. "It's gonna be a doozy!". Four Stars because the prints are not restored like they could have been.

Gettin' Our Monies Worth,
This review is from: Hazel - Season 2 (DVD)
I must agree with the other "critic", that it may have taken years and years for Season Two to arrive, it will be worth the wait.Hazel might of been a "domestic servant",but she certainly had most class, consideration and manners than any youngster in school today. All you have to do is ride any transit bus running anywhere today. I am sure Hazel would of put them in their place. Hazel was part of the family, and she would of done anything to please her "boss" or his wife and the sparkle of her eye... "Sport" their son (nickname). It will be such a treat to watch Season Two, especially in colour and its hard to believe it was only in the "sixties". Enjoy Hazel for it does justify the saying "Oh, for the good old days" Don McParlan Boomer

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hazel - Season 2 (DVD)
I remember watching this series when I was a child. I am not disappointed as an adult. The actors are great and the stories are beautiful and amusing. PERSOHNNALY, I WOULD HAVE LOTS OF DIFFICULTY WITH A MAID THAT POKES HER NOSE IN MY AFFAIRS LIKE THAT...but that is another story altogether :)I highly recommend this series. I already have seasons 1 and 2 and I have every intention of purchasing other seasons. AMAZON was still at its best, I had no problems whatsoever with any of the episodes.
