You'll Need Band-Aids for This :)
When I first saw Tim Conway in his character role as 'Dorf' on the Carol Burnette Show I thought I'd die with laughter. I wonder if Randy Newman got the idea for 'Short People' from some of Conway's wild routines. His wacky, insane skits of Dorf is a memorable classic. In this video 'Dorf on Golf' Dorf shows us how to play golf. Oh, my! Really? Tahew! Tahew! Tahew! (thank you, Mr. Tuddball) He ...

Mark Twain - A Film Directed by Ken Burns [VHS]

Another gem from Ken Burns
No one I know can tell a story as powerfully and movingly as Ken Burns. This biography on Mark Twain was not only entertaining, it was a rare look at a man of genius who reached the pinnacle of success as an author who created unforgettable characters and a fearless social critic who used his humor and razor sharp wit to expose the hypocrisies of his day. He delighted millions the world over with ...

A story lost to history
I'm a woman in a male-dominated field, engineering. But I always cringed at the "feminist" viewpoints and attitudes of some of my friends. I did my work and didn't really think about being the only female in class. All that changed when I saw this documentary. For the first time, I understand what a woman's life was like back 150 years ago. I understand how much progress has been made, and ...

Hilarious Sports Movie, Great Cast
Let me start with my favorite part of the picture: imagine Tom Bosley and Tim Conway as partners in crime. This team-up is as good on celluiod as it is on paper. The funny thing is that basic unknowns Gary Grimes and Liberty Williams play the major characters. However, the supporting cast is full of stars, all of which are at their best. In addition to Bosley and Conway, other cast members ...

The Carol Burnett Show
As a little girl living in South Africa, Wednesday nights was very special. That's when The Carol Burnett Show came on. I thorougly enjoyed her shows. Today, 32 years on, I still enjoy her timeless pieces especially the Dentist sketch. I would like very much to obtain all her videos so that I can once again enjoy them again.

Jan-Michael Vincent Saves the Day
I recently watched it again and it holds up very well. It is quite funny and still works today. A lot of credit has to go to John Amos as Coach Sam Archer. He gave this silly but entertaining film a lot of character and its his vision to make jungle boy Jan-Michael Vincent the next sports super star to give new life to all his coaching efforts. Jan-Michael Vincent really looked good in this ...

Great movie for the entire family!
Loved this DVD! My twins are fanatics when it comes to animals, especially D-O-G-S! They joyously watched Air Bud: Golden Receiver with me and filled me in on all the little details. For instance, I didn't know that Air Bud was the buddies dad. Makes sense...just not sure where my head was...apparently (according to the twins) that is common knowledge. Buddy it the dream dog. Well mannered, ...

Don't Forget the Extras!
Since many other reviewers have discussed the plot, I won't bother describing it here. This is a typical family-friendly Disney movie from the 1970s, but the cast, production values, and direction make this one of the better ones. Bill Bixby is nicely cast as the charming gambler, with a big heart. Susan Clark is convincing as the tough on the outside, but soft on the inside, stagecoach driver. ...

A True Experience For The Whole Family...
This Lewis and Clark documentary is the very finest I have ever come across on the fascinating trek of these two explorers. Even for people like myself that have a deep interest in American history, particularly the old west, it is a perilous and well documented journey that so few people seem to know anything about, beyond the name of it. And yet it is in my opinion a journey inside American ...

Timeless Truth for Kids (and their Parents)
The introductory video in this delightful and growing children's series is destined to be a treasured favorite for years to come. Artful animation, likable characters and a clearly-told Christian message show kids how to put their faith into action (and challenge their parents too!) Even non-Christians with a respect for God and a spiritual hunger will enjoy the timeless truths in these ...

McHale's Navy, The Movie
As a fan of the television series, this movie follows through with the same style of fun and entertaining antics of the crew of the PT-73. My memories of viewing the movie many times on television broadcasting always center on the hilarious, unbridled talents of Tim Conway, who carried his comedic skill over to the Carrol Burnett Show, where he would ofttimes bring the skits to a brief halt when ...

Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again [VHS]

Tim Conway, Don Knotts

Walt Disney Video, 1998

Funny, Family Movie
This is a funny video in the traditional 'old Disney' Don Knotts style. It is not as funny and does not have near as good a plot as "The Apple Dumpling Game". If you can only buy one, buy the first movie. This is old fashioned entertainment that the whole family can watch.

Great funny classic
I watched this movie with my family as a child. I am so glad I found a copy to share with my children. Classic Don Knotts/Tim Conway comedy. It's filmed at the Biltmore house in North Carolina. It's one of my favorites.

The chemistry between Tim Conway and Harvey Korman is alive and well in this video. My whole family loved the chance to see them together again.

Dorf is THE MAN!
While many people may find this video "stupid" and a waste of money, a true fisherman (or woman) will appreciate the humor in this video. Tim Conway portrays the sport of fishing in a quirky and entertaining manner, that would put a smile on anyone's face. I enjoy it more and more every time I watch it, and I've watched it about a million times. IT'S HILLARIOUS!

Prize Fighter [VHS]

Tim Conway, Don Knotts

Media Home Video, 1983

Must Have for Conway & Knotts Fans!
Basically, this is the Conway and Knotts that we loved in the Apple Dumpling Gang, full-length. This is Conway's and Knotts' brand of slapstick comedy that perfectly matches the film's theme. Their performance in this film is a notch above that of the Private Eyes. If you watch the Prize Fighter as though you were seeing it on the big screen in 1979, you'll agree that this is the quintessential ...

Tim Conway, Shawn Hess

Parvenu Ent., 1996

Dorf is good in this but not great
First off, let me say that this was a hilarious video, just as all of the others in the Dorf Series. Having said that, I must say I was a little disappointed when I compare this to Dorf Goes Fishing. It just lacked some of the stupid comedy. However this is still a good video and it is worth buying.

touches all the bases
For me the measure of a good video or film isn't production value (though this can help)or good actors or actresses (ditto)or even the tightness of the script . It's all about entertainment (number one) & if you can sit through a feature & be sorry when it's over then you've stumbled on something special. The Musical score is very good, there are some pretty heavy names for a "B" movie Quarry, ...
