Road to Avonlea - Season 06

My wife and I got hooked on "Avonlea" during its initial run on The Disney Channel in the early 1990's. As I recall we were both very pleased to find a show devoid of all of the double entendre and sexual innuendo that was becoming so prevalant on prime time television in those days. Well here we are nearly two decades later and network and cable TV continues to sink to new lows. My wife and I simply don't watch it anymore. As an alternative we have built our own library of classic motion pictures and quality television shows. About a year or so ago we purchased all seven seasons of Kevin Sullivan's phenomenal Canadian TV series "Road To Avonlea". These are not cheap but I must tell you they are worth every penny. To our way of thinking "Road to Avonlea" is the finest television series ever created. We have just concluded viewing the sixth season of the series for the second time. Much to our delight we found "Avonlea: The Complete Sixth Season" to be every bit as entertaining as the first five. This is no small feat!As always the photography is nothing short of spectacular and the writing superb. We see less of series regulars Felicity King and Olivia Dale and more of White Sands Hotel owner Simon Tremayne and general store owner Muriel Stacy. Over the course of the season Muriel ties the knot with Clive Pettibone and Rachel Lynde suffers a debilitating stroke. It constantly amazes me how much I have come to care about so many of these characters. As far as I am concerned "Road to Avonlea: Season 6" is family entertainment at its absolute best. Highly recommended!

My husband introduced me to Anne of Green Gables after we were married...his sisters made him watch it over and over growing up. I loved it! I then remembered my Grandma watching a show called Avonlea when I was a kid, I never sat down and watched it with her...but after seeing the Anne movies I had to give them a try. When I saw how much they were I decided to rent some first. We rented season 1 and 2 and my kids (2, 4, and 6 at the time) and I loved them! I love all the RTA seasons even more than Little House. We own all but one of the seasons now...but we will get it next month! I watch these over and over with my kids, my five year old son even loves them. He thinks Felix and Gus are so cool! I would say from a conservative Christian perspective that there were a few episodes (out of all the seasons combined not out of each one) that I wont show my young children until they are older. I just put a sticky note on the outside of the case to remind myself which one I don't want them to watch. Some episodes in this series the children are quite naughty, but it makes for good discussions with my children afterwards. Sometimes Amazon's price is good...sometimes not. Season 1,4, and 6 I bought from Amazon but Season 3 and 5 I found a better deal on ebay.. I bought the HD ones and mine are great quality...I hate the case though, I put mine into clear DVD cases of my own because I felt like I was going to scratch them taking them in and out of what they came in. These are the cases I use http://www.amazon.com/Memorex-Slim-Video-Storage-Cases/dp/B0001MKU48/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=WMJ1V2M7LYW&coliid=I2ZC05DAKRKRW4

This TV series is one of my all time favorites and I am so happy to have them on DVD. The remastering is absolutely brilliant and I feel I am right there with the characters as they go about their lives. I have almost completed the collection, and as soon as I'm able, I will be ordering the last season and the remaining special. If you are looking for wonderful family entertainment, with endearing characters and beautiful scenery, the Road to Avonlea series fills the bill.

Road to Avonlea is my absolute favorite series. The stories at times can be a bit far fetched but the simple lives that the characters live makes me yearn for a more simple life! This is one show I don't have to worry about my daughter being in the room when I'm watching, there is now swearing, no vulagrity; it's truely a wholesome show the entire family can enjoy. The only thing I dislike is that it ended!

No scratches when watch each episode but I didn’t receive the third disk.

This set continues the story of the King children and their cousin, Sarah Stanley, as they grow and mature on lovely Prince Edwards' Island. This is a wholesome, family show with plenty to hold the viewer's interest. The quality of the DVD's is excellent. I recommend this series for anyone who is looking for family entertainment.

I love "Road to Avonlea"!! It is a great family series that teaches good values. I own all six and plan to get the seventh season as well. It is every bit as fun and romantic as Anne of Green Gables with a flair of it's own. The series will cause you to laugh, cry, and dream with the characters. There are not many classy, uplifting shows like this any more. The whole series is definitely my all time favorite of any series or movie available.

This is Canada's "little house on the Prairie" our children have watched these (the whole series) over and over. It is set in an exciting time period in history (early 20th century) when new ideas and technologies reared their heads, for better or worse. Great characters in these stories.
