Is this a CBS video release?

Yes, it's an official CBS release exclusive to WalMart and Sam's Club

I stand corrected. It is indeed the official 4th season release solely for Wal-Mart sales. Nice....

McGillicuddy · 09-13-2013, 05:09 PM

I don't like the package art. Why isn't it uniform with seasons 2 & 3? TVSODVD claims they can't report on this, because its an exclusive Walmart item. They're the ones that usually research these things. I DID go to Walmart.com, and its says "The Official Fourth Season".

I don't understand why they're handling it this way. Petticoat Junction Season 3 is being released the same way.

Well, I guess I should be glad they're getting released!

lucy&vivfan · 09-13-2013, 05:11 PM

I wondered the same thing, why TVSODVD did not report on it. I would think Wal-Mart would want to publicize this some way so people know to buy them so more seasons can be released. I just hope and pray they are decent quality.

Like you, I can't wait to see the color episodes. It's been FOREVER since I've seen any of them. I hope they're all uncut.

The funniest one I remember watching is something blowing up and Jed asking a question and she put her hand to her ear and says AAyy. I came unglued at her reaction.

Got it in the mail today! Can't wait to watch! I did check the first few episodes for runtime and here's the results:

Admiral Jed Clampett: 25:23
That Old Black Magic: 25:25
The Sheik: 25:23

So, it seems these are unedited and the picture quality is way better than I expected!

lucy&vivfan · 10-02-2013, 07:32 PM

I got my copy today, too! I've watched the first two episodes and I am very happy with the quality. I always thought the syndication prints of the color episodes were not good, but on the DVDs, it is very crisp and clear video and audio.

Let's hope the remaining five seasons come soon!

Seems like we were all worried about this release. I don't suppose we'll get any more "extras" with TBH and PJ releases, since MPI and CBS" Seasons 2 and 3 put out a wealth of them.

Sure am glad it looks like the episodes are un-cut and the picture quality is good!

Sorry, Granny put her hand to her ear. It's been 30 years since I graduated from High School.

I did notice some editing in the episode "Hoedown a Go-Go". When Miss Jane and Jethro go to the Whiskey a Go-Go, as I recall, Miss Jane was dancing on the table to "Oh Pretty Woman". I saw the episode on TV a few months ago. It appears the song was edited out in this DVD release, likely because of copyright issues.
