FINALLY THE VIEWERS GET THE OPTION TO SEE EPISODE #53 "HERMAN'S PEACE OFFENSIVE" WHICH IS BANNED ON "TV LAND" & "NICK AT NIGHT"
Episode #53 "Herman's Peace Offensive" as a child in the 1960's was always my favorite, and needless to say it aired over and over. The problem is the public relations people at "TV Land" & "Nick at Night" told me that "we will never air it" In my opinion the scene (which I think is the one that "TV Land" & "Nick At Night" has a problem with happens at Herman's work locker) is really not all that bad. I'm not going to spoil it and tell what happens due to the fact that Munster fans old and new may never have seen this episode and with only 70 total episodes ever made it's a great treat to find out that an episode that they may never have seen will be included in this DVD set. This episode is one of the best that is filled with pranks galore, but more importantly a great lesson is learned which Herman teaches to Eddie. The viewers who have not yet seen this episode can decide if this episode should be banned. Beside this episode, some of the best were made so the entire
second
season should
be greatly welcomed!!Wayne Lalevee

This Second (& Last) Season Completes The Series!
It's difficult to believe that "The
Munsters
" only had two
season
s, isn't it? I guess it's the fact that those seasons consisted of 38 and 32 episodes respectively for a total of 70 that made it seem like it was on longer than that. Anyone like me who grew up with this show on syndicated reruns and enjoyed it then will want to pick up this set. Here we will get to see all 32 episodes in their original uncut broadcast entirety, unlike the reruns. I hear this set will come packaged in a "Herman" head, or at least the initial print run of it anyway. If it follows past trends however, this special package will likely be replaced by some sort of standard box for later printings. So, if you're a collector of this sort of thing you will definitely want to take no chances and buy this from the start to make sure you don't miss it.
Another reviewer had expressed concern about Universal possibly removing the "Filmed at Universal Studios" tag from the end of the episodes, but since it was present on Season One I have faith that those tags will be left intact on this set too. It would be sad if they WERE trimmed, but it seems unlikely.
Anyone who enjoys classic TV will undoubtedly enjoy this set. Who couldn't help but love 'Ol "Hermie"? :)

And to add to the previous review . . .
...Hopefully Universal Home Video won't chop off the "Filmed at Universal CIty" logo at the end of the episodes, as they have been doing on other "Classic Television" box sets from the company.
At Long Last: Herman Munster vs. Clyde!
I bought the first
season
DVD set, but this is the one I've really been waiting for. It has my two favorite episodes: the one with "Fair Deal Dan" starring Frank Gorshin as a crooked used car dealer, and the other featuring the battle between Herman and a new employee at the parlor--Clyde, the practical joker.
When TV Land aired the
Munsters
, they refused to show this episode. I always wondered why; now I read on here that they considered it "too violent".
How absurd. When TV Land started, it sounded like a great idea--a cable network dedicated to presenting old, classic TV series, maybe the way TCM presents old movies. This turned out to be a false promise. TV Land, typically, turned out to be a pure rubbish, run, now we learn, by a bunch of PC fascists who not only cut up episodes in order to fit in more commercials, but also censor which episodes we get to see depending on which offend their "enlightened" new age fascist sensibilities. Now the network is
completely worthless
, airing nought but awful 1970's & 80's sit-coms wall to wall. And to think the original reason I switched to satellite from cable was that I wanted TV Land and my cable company refused to carry it! Now it is just another of the 200 or so cable/satellite networks I get but never watch.
Thank god for DVD, and re-issues of old time TV series, uncut, unedited and in sequence. We need no longer be subject to the whims and censorships of the weepy, sensitive PC types that run networks like TV Land.
I'm looking forward to the release of this set. Hopefully soon Leave It To Beaver, Get Smart and other still unavailable series will get DVD'd, and we can spit on the network heads (and think of what "head" means on a ship and you have an idea what I think of TV Land and its program censors) and be our own program planners, without the supervision of the paternalistic and condescending experts who would decide what is fit for us to watch.
