Great set dispite omissions and repeats!
This set, along with the "Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts"(Red packaging) and "Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts: Fully Roasted"(Blue packaging), make up 53 of the 54 total roasts done by Dean! Sadly, the one missing roast is Frank Sinatra!!!! Leaving Frank out of these is unforgivable!! I would have given this 5 stars but for this oversight! They pretty much are forcing people to buy the entire full set at an ungodly amount just for this roast!! How sad!! This set actually has some of the shows that are on the other sets! But, in spite of these omissions and repeats, these three sets are pure gold! Just a word of advise though, don't watch these 53 shows one after another! They get a little repetitious! Better to watch a disc or two, then go a week or two then watch another couple!! RP

Still funny
A blast from the past. These Roasts are like a time machine. When I watch them they bring me back to a simpler place in time and I'm a kid again, back in my parents house sitting on the sofa staying up late and watching them with my dad. I love them and bought all 4 collections.

Good clean comedy
It was so nice to go back in time when there was real comedy, good clean comedy. Back in this time comedians could be funny without having sexual undertones and having to give derogatory comments of a particular political party. They would make some comments like it but it was not continuous like today’s so called comedians it is not pc so if you are easily offended you will not enjoy this classic comedy, but if you appreciate good comedy I recommend purchasing all the Dean Martin roasts as I did.
