Best of Laredo: Season One

I wasn’t a real fan of Laredo when I was younger, but I thought I would give it a shot now that I’m older. In my opinion, I didn’t miss much. I just couldn’t get into it.

I love Laredo tv show. I have had sets of the series for years, but some of my favorite episodes were missing (Yahoo, Three’s company and We lost a train). This collection includesthose episodes, but does not have all of the episodes with Linda Little Tree andblue Dog.

Yahoo! The Texas Rangers are back.What made "Laredo" unique in the annals of tv westerns was its unique blend of humor and action. 'Reese Bennett' (Neville Brand), 'Chad Cooper(Peter Brown),and 'Joe Riley' (William Smith) were a likeable trio of Texas Rangers who may have been a little rough around the edges, but always managed to get the job done in the end."Laredo" was actually a spin-off of "The Virginian." The characters were featured with 'Trampas' in the episode "We've Lost a Train."The transfer quality of the episodes is very good to excellent. If you are an aficionado of classic tv westerns, this dvd set will be a great addition to your collection.I noticed an NBC/Universal logo on the dvd which seems to indicate this compilation was done with the company's backing. If that's the case, let's hope we'll see the release of other NBC classic westerns such as the aforementioned "The Virginian," and "The High Chaparral."

I loved this show as a kid and still do. I had a crush on Peter Brown. He sure was cute.

I remember this show when I was a kid but didn't really watch it much. In viewing it today, yeah, it's a little dated but still an enjoyable combination of western adventure and laughs. The comradre betwen Brand, Brown and Smith is pretty damned good. Let not forget Phillip (Granny Goose) Carey. That may lose something is you are under 45 or so. Yes, Neville Brand -- a Congressional Medal of Honor winner in WWII -- was a raging alcoholic. Brown and Carey would go on to soap opera roles and William Smith would be best remembered for his biker films and being one of the best over the top crazed pschos in the movies.

After checking and rechecking for years trying to find this tv show on tape - it's FINALLY here. My VHS copies of the show have pretty much faded completely out. This was one of my favorite shows when I was younger and it has not changed now that I am middle aged. I sat down and watched this the day it came in the mail and most of the following weekend. I enjoyed myself so much. It was a wonderful show which should have lasted longer than it did. Neville Brand, William Smith and Claude Akins were my favorites in this series. There just are not shows like this on tv anymore which can just give you a good feeling watching it and over and over again. I am so happy that this show was not lost.

fun to watch western seen them all good stuff

I wondered what this DVD contained when I saw it listed in several places but seemingly not available or "backordered". I finally found one actually for sale and ordered it. I suppose you could call it a Laredo Sampler, as it contains five episodes from Timeless Media's Best of Laredo, Season One, Part One set. It's exactly the same as one of the discs in the full set, and contains the episodes Rendezvous At Arillo, Anybody Here Seen Billy?, I See By Your Outfit, A Question of Discipline, and Limit-of-the-Law Larkin. If you already have the full three-disc set, you don't necessarily need this but it would make a nice item for someone who wanted to try the show without buying the whole thing.

Great DVD brought back many memories, would recommend this DVD to anyone that remembers the series.

very good

This arrived new in shrink wrap, but the spindles inside of the case that hold the sleeves with the DVDs on them were all broken. The DVDs themslves don't appear to overly scratched. The episodes on the DVDs are not in broadcast order, but pretty much random. Picture quality is very disappointing. It's very fuzzy. These are DVD5 discs instead of dual layer DVD9's, and they simply can't hold 5 forty-five minute episodes without noticable picture degradation. I've seen lots of old westerns on DVD with much better quality than this. All in all a waste of money.Update. I contacted the company that released this, and they assured me that all their releases are on dual layer DVDs. This is a pirate copy. It has been returned.

I used to love this show as a kid growing up and having a chance to watch a little of it again was lots of fun. The humour in the show and the interactions of the Rangers with each other is great. The disk includes 5 episodes: Rendezvous at Arillo, Anybody Here Seen Billy?, I See By Your Outfit, A Question of Discipline and Limit Of The Law Larkin. Sound and picture quality are both good. I was entirely satisfied with this purchase.

Same as I remembered
