Daniel Boone: The Complete Series

So happy I found this, the whole series. I am enjoying watching it and bringing back some fond memories. Still on the first season, but so far, no problems with discs. Forgot how much was in Black and white before they went to color. Thank You Amazon for having this.

It's a good wholesome viewing reminds me of the principles our country was built on. It also reminds me of when I was a lad growing up. Good luck.Update: I'll have to check my DVD player because one video stopped in the middle of the movie, could be the movie itself. We've noticed when ordering a complete set some will stop in the middle of the story for no reason an will not go past a certain area of the movie. I'll try an contact company question if they know of any reason. Again, good luck

This one of my favorite as a kid but I was always confused between Daniel Boone and Davey Crockett. Fess Parker created that confusion because he played both. This series expanded the super legend of Daniel Boone. Being my mom's family came to Kentucky I just soaked all this up. And then we moved to Kentucky in 1966, I was really involved. Since we did not get a color TV until 1970 we only saw it in black and white. So starting with season 2 I can watch them in color now. The program was very simple and gave a very simplistic view of this time in history. A good conversion to DVD. I always loved the singing segues in the show. I also wondered about Mingo as his situation seemed far fetched. Where were the horses as Daniel walked everywhere.

I had forgotten what a good series Daniel Boone was. We are very glad we purchased the entire series.

My mother watched the show on the Inspiration channel and loved it. So, I just bought her this box set. Lots of episodes on several discs Worth the money.

My 4 star rating is a composite rating -- several parts have different ratings but the over all rating -- based on the television series itself is 4 stars.I give the series itself a 5 star rating! I used to watch this as a child. I don't think I ever saw the pilot before so I may not have watched it all the time. I have always loved Fess Parker as Daniel Boone and little Darby Hinton as his son Israel but I think that Ed Ames as Mingo was always my favorite character when I was young. Re-watching now does not destroy those old time memories. I still like those three and still like Mingo best!The conversion to DVD is not perfect as has been noted in other reviews. I did note quite a bit of sparkles, streaks and gray splotches in the first season. I didn't notice them with the color seasons but maybe they were just not as noticeable. Each season had 6 disks and either 4 or 5 episodes per disk. It was a little odd in Season one for the 2 part episode to split across disks but that's what happens when you try to keep the original broadcast episode order.So far, I have not had time to completely view all episodes. 165 episodes on 36 disks cannot be done fast enough. However, I have at least "quick-checked" (watched at least a short bit of each "chapter" of each episode on each disk. I've had the set only a few days so I've only had time to fully watch one episode (the pilot) but quick check 159 other episodes. The last 5 episodes, I don't have (I'll explain that next).I give the condition of the disk a 3 star rating. There were minor problems with several disks and one disk is missing. I received 2 copies of Season 2 Disk 4 but no copy of Season 2 Disk 5!I read a review where one person had trouble with Season 3, Disk 4 twice so I watched that one extra carefully. That one gave me no problems but Season 3 Disk 1 did give me some problems. It kept freezing on me in the first episode. I found the disk to be dirty and scratched. After cleaning, it worked fine (for a quick-check) when played on the DVD player. The first test is with a small 7" portable DVD player (used just for quick-checks).Season 2, Disk 6 also had a few freezing but it was right around the credits so I didn't pursue it further at this time. One disk on Season 1, either 2 or 3 (I can't remember now) was freezing badly and when I looked, it was filthy! A quick cleaning with a micro-cloth and it worked fine, even in the little portable player.My main problem is the lack of 5 episodes of the series. The disks themselves seem to be perfectly usable at this stage.I give 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment 1 star for customer service! NEVER call them if you have any problems. All they will do is send you to the seller for a replacement or refund. They only support their sellers and don't care about the final customers at all! It even took a "bump" to supervisor to find out that even if they wanted to help me, they couldn't. This DVD set is "out of print". It is totally unavailable except in these 3rd party sellers. Since they don't have it themselves, they can't sell it to "approved sellers" such as Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy... so they don't care and won't help you at all!If anybody happens to have an "extra" copy of Season 2, Disk 5 and is missing Disk 4 (of 6 disks), I would love to work out a trade!Over all: 4 Star Rating5 star -> Series3 star -> DVDs themselves1 Star -> Fox Customer Service

Not only is it just a great show the quality of the picture is great.

I had almost the same experience watching this as an adult as when I was just a kid. It is kind of corny and you will wonder how the time frame bounces all over the place from before the Revolutionary War to during the Revolutionary War from week to week. You will be curious as to what happened to Daniel Boone's daughter as she is there one episode and gone forever the next. You will not be able to figure out how the Indians and Redcoats always get killed and the settlers do not. You might even start thinking why doesn't Daniel Boone take off the silly coonskin cap! I didn't recall the opening credit and song changing until I watched the series now. That said, the show is clean, interesting and fairly entertaining. Well worth the price. The DVDs are clear and the show is presented in perfect form. I will bring back memories of a different world.

Very satisfied with this purchase. Had not watched Daniel Boone in my youth, but I'm all into it now. Great family show from an era when television was done tastefully.

Both the image and sound quality are excellent, and the packaging well done as it should be for a classic series like this. You couldn't get any better. The episodes are reproduced in full (over 50 minutes each) and there are no extras. But all 165 episodes over 6 seasons are there to enjoy and I'm perfectly satisfied with this series release.

Strong and sturdy box set. Every season in it's own sturdy plastic casing. Enjoying the walk down memory lane.

enjoyed complete set.

J'ai regardé, tout est correct.
