Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman: The Complete Series



I just watched the entire series and Shout Factory has done a superb job!!!!
I got my set in November and it's great! It comes in a nice sturdy case that is only 4 inches wide and also includes a wonderful booklet with a complete episode guide. The picture quality is superb. One thing that shocked me about the series was how much music Shout Factory had to clear to get this series on DVD. Characters on the show (especially Dody Goodman) were always singing a few lines from a classic song to themselves at the start of scenes. Loretta and her alter ego Lulu also covered a lot of songs and then there was music being played on records and the jukebox. Shout Factory has managed to clear the rights to about 99.99% of these songs. They have also corrected the problems from the first season that started with episode 22 that were screwed up in reruns on Lifetime, TV land and the last DVD release. I thought season one seemed perfect. but did notice a few cuts on season 2. Episode 174 is missing a few minutes because they couldn't clear the rights to two Johnny...

One of the best shows EVER!
I preordered and have been waiting for this show to get on dvd since Sony stopped after volume one.
Mary Hartman was way ahead of its time and so well written.
I was too young to watch it when it first aired but I do remember watching several episodes on TV Land 10 yrs ago and I loved it and so glad ShoutFactory is putting out these classic shows!

Mary Hartman Mary Hartman for Christmas!
I literally jumped for joy when I got the e-mail notice from TVShowsonDVD.com that Shout! Factory is releasing all episdoes of Mary Hartman Mary Hartman on DVD! I immediately pre-ordered the set from Amazon and can't wait till it is released. I just got done reading all the reviews that have already been posted even before the set is released, and it warms my heart to see that so many people feel the same way that I do about the show and the wonderful characters. This show is about real life, with a little craziness mixed in for effect. I too hope that Shout releases Forever Fernwood in the future. But for now, I'm gonna braid my hair and wax my floor while I eagerly await the release of Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman!!
