Hazel: The Complete Fourth Season



Three Sets in One Calendar Year--Go Shout!
While Season 4 of "Hazel" isn't necessarily the series' best, the wonderful Shirley Booth and the cast always elevate the material and Shout Factory are to be commended for continuing the Sony-abandonded series thus far. They've gifted us with THREE sets this calendar year (and I hope the final one is released sometime early in 2013), and I've enjoyed each one immensely. Like the old saying goes "They don't make 'em like this anymore". Bear in mind, these are not new digitally-remastered transfers taken from the original film elements. Shout had to make due with video masters likely made in the 1980s, so the picture quality is not of Hi-Def Bluray quality here. Still, I'd rather have these than nothing at all. This set consists of 26 episodes that aired originally on NBC during the 1964-65 season:

17/Sep/64 Never Trouble Trouble
24/Sep/64 Luncheon with the Governor
01/Oct/64 Ain't That a Knee Slapper?
08/Oct/64 Marriage Trap (a.k.a.) George's Law Partner...

Hazel
I love Hazel and can't thank Shout enough for providing this series for us. I watched Hazel when it first came out in 1961 and still love her.

When will season five come out?

Great family show!
I have purchased four seasons of Hazel on DVD and must say this is a great family show. This is the last season for the original Baxter's--George and Dorothy. They are my favorite!

You'll enjoy this show.
