The Flying Nun: Season 2

Season Two of THE FLYING NUN continues the adventures of Convent San Tanco's airborne novice Sister Bertrille (played by Sally Field). Following the enormous acclaim and popularity of Season One, the basic formula for the show remained unchanged, with Bertrille leading the charge on harebrained adventures that would almost certainly culminate in playboy Carlos Ramirez coming to the rescue.Sally Field buoys the series nicely and the supporting cast of Madeleine Sherwood (as Reverend Mother Plaseato), Marge Redmond (Sister Jacqueline), Shelley Morrison (Sister Sixto) and Alejandro Rey (Carlos) all deliver handsomely too.THE FLYING NUN would stay airborne for another season before coming to a natural end. Let's hope the third and final season is released soon.COMPLETE EPISODE LISTING:"Song of Bertrille" - Sister Bertrille is offered the chance to write a pop song for an old friend (guest star Paul Petersen), but the kind gesture backfires."The Crooked Convent" - The sisters get caught up in a world of crooked policemen and scam artists."The Rabbi and the Nun" - The sisters sing 'Hava Nagila' at a Jewish wedding held in the convent gardens."The Return of Father Lundigan" - Thanks to a hypnosis trick, Sister Bertrille and the Reverend Mother swap personalities whenever someone says the word 'red'.

I was very young when the Flying Nun was on tv, but i still remember that the whole family was watching it on the black and white tv. It's very nice to see it back and it bring back memories. Great that all the old serie's are coming out on dvd.The magic of the flying is not done very profesional if we compare it with the miracles in Bewitched, you can clearly see it's fake, but this is not bother, the stories are funny. If i watch a Bewitched or The Lucy Show i hardly can stop watching, so not with the Flying Nun. It's nice to see one or 2 episodes but i don't feel the need to watch more after another.

Although, season 2 of The Flying Nun was not as warm and a bit more slapstick-ish than season 1, it is still a treat to watch. The picture quality is excellent as well as the sound.I didn't become acquainted with this show until it went into syndication in 1970 because I was only in early grade school when it ended, then didn't hang around long after that. But I became reaquainted when USA aired the reruns in the mid 80's, then another cable channel did the same in the mid-90's. TVLand also aired it briefly and irregularly a couple years ago.But thankfully Sony had the inspiration to release The Flying Nun on DVD so a new generation can fall in love with the cute (albeit far-fetched)adventures of Sister Bertrille and the rest of the Convent San Tanco.

If anyone likes Sally Field in her work in TV series throughout her life,will also like how she sings and does a tremendously serious part of actually playing a Flying Nun.I'd say Sally Field should be greatly honored now in her life for playing this role.She's played many important roles all the rest of her life.I think she was a very brave actress to be harnessed in the formal Mary Martin Peter Pan flying harness. To be flying with wires and a Peter Pan harness I think is a challenging skill and she should have been respected for her performances in this TV show The Flying Nun.I say she should be commended for this formal work that she did when she was young.I recommend this TV series for customers who like family friendly TV.Sincerely: Tim Kemp

You would think that with "Brothers and Sisters" being such a popular show, Sony would come up with a clever cross marketing campaign and get off their duffs and release the final season of this great show. I mean come on we are talking about Sally Field here! It's only one more season Sony, would it hurt you to put out an entire 3 season series? Man you guys are slow. I mean I will probably have one foot in the grave before the entire Paty of Five series is released. Well, at least my I Dream of Jeannie series is complete, I wonder if I can say the same for Bewitched and The Partridge Family, just to name a few ...

Wow! It has been so many years since I've seen the Flying Nun! And, when I did watch it, it was reruns in the early 70's. I loved the show then, (as a kid) and I love it even more now! (as a Mom) It is lighthearted, fun, at times even inspirational. You truly do forget the "real" world for awhile, and just enjoy this sweet show made for families. My 9 year old daughter really likes it. So, enjoy your trip down memory lane--Captain Fomento is VERY funny, Sister Jacqueline is refreshing, Carlos is as handsome/charming as ever, and Sally Field is a gem. Treat yourself like I did, you won't be sorry!

During the second season of The Flying Nun, character development reached fuition and the series reached it's crest. Some of the storylines and gags began to repeat and it's not hard to see why the series lasted only another season after. Guess there's only so much to be done with the plot line of a nun that flies. Nevertheless, it's another wonderful jaunt down the Screen Gems lane. Incidently, it's amazing to see how much 60s television, especially for ABC, was made by Screen Gems. How many times can the same prop or set be used for a different show? That's one of the amazing things about Bewitched, Jeannie, The Monkees, The Flying Nun, etc.

Love his show and the kids watch it continuously

I know I've read articles where Sally Field says she didn't like doing the series but this show had interesting stories and comic mishaps that kept the audience engaged in the action. A gem of television history. It would probably do well in reruns on Nickelodeon, Dejavu or YTV.

Excellent produit reçu dans les délais et en bon état.

An old TV show which has not grown old nicely. Not that interesting after all those years.
