Summary of "Season 1 - Awesome show": Let me start off by saying I'm not a huge fan of classic TV. Yes, I appreciate certain shows, but I rarely go out of my way to watch shows that are 40-50 years old; I prefer new TV. I'm sure that echoes the sentiments of most people out there, and it explains why classic TV doesn't sell that well.
Well, let me say that I absolutely loved Dennis the Menace. I laughed more times, and harder, than I do while watching many current sitcoms. The situations Dennis gets himself into are hilarious, and often end poorly for someone else, but he never does anything on purpose; he's just a kid trying to be helpful. It's also a show the entire family can enjoy together, which can't be said about a lot of the stuff on TV these days.
This is a wonderful show, and a set I'd strongly recommend. Priced below $20 at Amazon.com, it's well-worth the money (that's under $0.63/episode!). Please, trust me, and go buy it. (read entire review)
