Customer Review: All About Dean & Jerry... And A Must See!!!
As I was born after this genious team had parted ways, I had only seen the Martin & Lewis movies. This show from the early 50's gives us not just a better idea of how funny they were, but also how much fun they had together. The ad libs constantly catch the other off gaurd, and are such fun. Various guest stars come thru, but are not much more than an opportunity for Dean & Jerry to catch there breath, though they can sing or dance very well. But you don't get these discs for the guests. It's all about Dean & Jerry. My only criticism is the quality of the picture & sound. I know that the film is 50+ years old, but complete remastering should be done. It would have been worth a higher price for the discs. Regardless, I highly recommend this item. It's also interesting to see tv before short attention spans set in. The skits can last 15-20 minutes, something unseen in this day & age.
