Horrible video and sound quality making it unwatchable.

Movie Reviews

Ghastly audio! MUST TO AVOID.

"The video elements are just fine on this set but the audio is catastrophic. There is a disclaimer at the beginning of each disc babbling about "poorly preserved" elements. These kinescopes are very well preserved, it's the audio remastering that sucks, and this set should have been recalled. It is difficult to understand dialogue through the distortion. Abominable!"
Great variety-comedy television - more Berle-Buick please -

"try to get better sources

- I get the feeling Milton, Greg Garrison, various musicians and writers put a lot of work and heart into these shows. Milton's dancing alone was first rate, precise and more sweat than seen today and he seemed still to be very fresh in delivery. Ruth Gilbert was lovely as "Max" and Arnold Stang's "Francis" was dynamic and at times stole/steals the show. With guests such as Jack Webb, Steve Allen, Sid Cesar, Cyril Ritchard = got my measey $ worth. More Berle-Buick please along with his Texaco shows.

Regarding sound - on several shows there's a certain percentage which is "destroyed"/missing/distorted but theres enough good overall for the fan to make it worthwhile. (Is this all that's left?)

Video quality is good enough."
Texaco is lost forever

"I saw Berle as a guest on Tom Snyder TV interview show probably during 1970's. He complained that to save storage space, some custodian at NBC had thrown out all the kinescopes of his work. All gone."
