Bilko - 50th Anniversary Edition (The Phil Silvers Show) | | | | | | | Product Promotions: | | | | | Description: | | Phil Silvers plays Ernie Bilko, a motor pool sgt in the US army. He is based at Fort Baxter, a small camp hidden away near a town called Roseville, in the wilds of Kansas. The camp is supposedly run by Colonel Hall, but it's Bilko that calls the shots. Whether it's poker games, betting on the horses, or when ever he was short of money, which was just about all the time, getting his platoon to cough up. Along with the other Sgt's from the Mess Hall, Signals, and Supply, Bilko is continually at war with Colonel Hall, who is desperately trying to put a stop to the gambling once and for all. | | | Product Details: | | | Actors:

 If it's not Complete, I keep my moneyDec 02, 2009

This is a great way to package Bilko rather than simply issuing all of the episodes.
Someone Else Wrote
This should have been the first season of Sgt. Bilko (not the Steve Martin movie) show starring Phil Silvers. But the folks at Paramount got cold feet about releasing Bilko with season sets. So what we're left with as an introduction is a sampler of 21 episodes from the four seasons (there were 142 episodes made).
From me to all of these DVD Companies
I DON'T do Best Ofs, Volumes, TV Shows MUST be COMPLETE and UNCUT, Just because it says COMPLETE doesn't mean it's UNCUT. See ALL 4 Seasons of ALF, Father of the Pride, Season 1 of Rosanne, ALL 5 Seasons of Two and a Half Men-One of the season 1 episodes was only 18:30.
It's either a Complete UnCut Season or i keep my money
Extras for me are Optional and NO big deal
The Show is pure Brilliance, The 2 Stars are for this Crummy 21 episode set.
Season 1 had 34 episodes
At least other companies know how to do it.
 a light reviewNov 13, 2009
I enjoyed this show as a kid. It was a favorite for the family back in the 50's. I had never seen re-runs and what a pleasant surprise to see it again in very good quality. It is fun to escape all of the things that go along with todays society and the Phil Silvers show has all that it takes to go back to the days of innocence. Fast moving kind of silly but most enjoyable.

Biklko - the whole series on DVDOct 13, 2009
Just to add information for anyone who's interested, as I've already reviewed this item, just last week on Ebay, I purchased the whole series on DVD for a very reasonable price. Can't wait for it to arrive - top stuff!

SGT. BILKO - Funny StuffJan 12, 2009
Compared to the shows on all the available TV channels any given afternoon or evening -- we'd rather watch funny old stuff - movies and TV shows made before all the sex and violence and low morals and values. Maybe some of the stuff is politically incorrect these days -- but funny is funny - even in black and white.
