  • Didn't really stand the test of time. Bits were good, but we forget how rudimentary TV was in those years.

    The episode featuring The Who as musical guest was . . . uncomfortable. It was a folk music show and the Brothers acted like Roger Daltry and his boys were aliens. AND, the band wore rediculous tuxedos. It was worth the price just to see this episode.

  • What the Smothers Brothers wrote and performed in the 1960's applied then, it applies now, and probably will apply years into the future.

    When the Smothers Brothers produced their show in 1967, 68 and 69 they were faced with many of the same challenges in government, politics, race relations, and gender equality then as we are now. These shows are timeless. If they were not dated you would think it was taking place in our present day. These shows were far ahead of their time. What can now be said on television goes far beyond what could be said then, and has minimal censor editing. In addition, the singing quality of the Smothers Brothers is excellent. Their vocal harmony, instrument skills, and background introduction of their songs is unparalleled by any artists of today. How they were able to perform at such a high level of singing quality as well as interweaving threads of political humor into the performance appeared to be so simple, but at the same time it was so well timed and well written from a very high-brow level that made it so entertaining.

  • Still Great!

    Very enjoyable watching memories of the past. The Smothers Brothers planted the seed for TV shows to criticize our country's political stands.

  • The show ended to soon.

    The Smothers Brothers simply were not politically correct for the time period. I enjoyed their shows. Pat Paulsen does get tiring after a while.
