This 5 1/2 minute long commercial originally aired on Sunday, September 27, 1964 and was to promote the lineup of '65 Chevy cars. It was filmed in "Virginia City" where
Bonanza takes place...Robert Vaughn shows up at about :47 and has about a minute and then is seen briefly at the end. The casts of
Bonanza and
Bewitched were also part of this as Chevrolet also sponsored their shows. As
Bewitched will never be given the DVD treatment that it deserves (in terms of extras) like
Man from U.N.C.L.E. and
Get Smart were, I was thinking maybe a cleaned up version of the commercial was on this set.
If it is, it's not listed on the outer sleeve of *any* of the seasons or on the 2 "Bonus Disks".

Plus a very nice boolket for each season which has a run down of how things went for the season as well as an episode list with original air dates.
It also does not include the "Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In" appearance with Leo G. Carroll. Since "Laugh-In" took over from TMFU the week following the last episode and included the short skit with Carroll it would have been a very nice bonus.
for the complete season set at $82.99 . I have to decide today about this one. It's tempting for that price.
It really lost much of it "freshness" and hip feel due MTFU being hostage to mgm lot. Also the lot was really designed to look good for mostly b/w production and shot in detail enhanceing color and sometimes sets look pretty cheesy. Honestly in my book for the mgm back lot did not help MTFU that much. Thats my 2 cents.
. I think I paid something like $135. In regards to the packaging, I replace the digipaks with the thin double DVD box which luckily fits in the same space. My reason for doing it was I had great problems removing a DVD from the digipak and I didn't want break the DVD.
