Customer Reviews: Read 78 more reviews... Real Classics January 7, 2009 The Egg and I is a wonderful movie, but I had forgotten what great humor in the Old Ma and PA Kettle classics. Much Obliged! December 27, 2008 Maybe it's my Sony HD TV or my Sony HD dvd player...but the DVD was really crisp and sharp.I thought the visual quality was excellent! I have only watched one side so far. I remember the "Egg and I" as a child and was really happy to watch it again. Claudette Coulbert is just so "perfect"! Her smile is so adorable. Of course the Kettles are wonderful too! Whenever I have an itch, I feel like Ma Kettle just scratching away. I love her voice and I love Pa's voice too. Much Obliged! When the family sits down to dinner, Pa says a prayer to thank God...Much Obliged! Really wholesome humor. In "Ma and Pa Kettle Go to Town", Pa is confused with an underwear magnate, that whole scene gave me such a good laugh. Watching this as an adult, I am more impressed with the actors and their physical comedy. They just move funny. I am glad I got this DVD. Adventures of Ma and Pa Kettle, Vol. 1 December 2, 2008 I have thoroughly enjoyed watching the Adventures of Ma and Pa Kettle, Vol. 1 so far. Ma and Pa Kettle Collection December 1, 2008 I was very disappointed with this product. The disc would not play on "The Egg and I". I am going to return it. "Come'n git it!" November 7, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful This DVD contains the first four Ma and Pa Kettle movies from the 40s and 50s. Ma (Marjorie Main), the screeching but loving matriarch and Pa (Percy Kilbride), the lazy father of 15, are first introduced in The Egg and I which stars Fred MacMurray and Claudet Colbert as newlywed city folk who buy a run-down farm next door to the Kettles. If you liked "Green Acres," you'll love this movie. The Kettles next star in their own movie, The Further Adventures of Ma & Pa Kettle in which Pa wins a model home of the future and they leave their ramshackle farm for a while. The third entry is Ma & Pa Kettle Go to Town - the town being New York City. Pa enters another contest and wins the trip, where they get mixed up with gangsters. Last is Ma & Pa Kettle Back on the Farm in which the Kettles become grandparents. I saw these movies as a child and while they aren't quite the knee-slappers I remember, they're all good, clean fun for the whole family. The humor comes from down-home goodness rather than funny dialogue; slacker Pa and workhorse Ma cope with whatever comes their way with good 'ole horsesense. They sure don't make'em like this anymore. Now I'm ready to see the next four movies in Volume 2!
