More Sky King please.
rating: 4
As a kid in the 60's with only three channels of rabbit ear television to watch,catching a rerun of Sky King on a Saturday was like heaven. The show seemed terribly exciting then and combined all the elements a child of that era could want. It was like a crime drama, a western, and an action adventure show all rolled into one.
This offering is four episodes over an undetermined run of the series. I suppose these are episodes that have been allowed to lapse into public domain. There is more than one version of the opening of the show one of which looks like an old rotary engined beechcraft. The quality was quite watchable for showes of this vintage. My only regret is these are only four episodes (which seem to be the only ones in circulation at this time) Buyer beware if you find another sky king DVD it will probably be the same ones. Hopefully more of this great old show will become available in the near future. A bonus in this DVD is an old Nabisco commercial before one the episodes.

Beware

I bought 2 Sky King Videos of old TV shows. Both had different covers but both contained the same four episodes. One DVD stated the shows were from "1951" and the other DVD said "1958". Be careful when ordering multiple dvds of the same actor to make sure they are not duplicated. One cost $7.98 and one cost $4.98

Sky King DVD
rating: 5
I bought this for my boyfriend for Valentine's Day. It went beyond a hit. He was so excited he could hardly finish dinner before turning on the DVD player and watching. He has watched these four episodes numerous times, and still loves it. The commercials were an added bonus!
I just wish we could get more episodes.

GREAT MEMORIES
rating: 5
I LOVED THIS SHOW AS A KID AND I STILL LOVE IT TODAY. IT MIGHT SEEM SIMPLE COMPARED TO TODAY'S SHOWS BUT IT IS STILL ENTERTAINING. I SAT DOWN AND WATCHED THIS DVD WITH MY 7 YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER AND SHE ALSO LIKED IT. I WISH THERE WERE MORE SHOWS ON TV LIKE SKY KING AND FURY, SO SIMPLE BUT OH, SO GOOD!
