Customer Rating:      Summary: Partial Performances Comment: Why would you entitle a production "Unforgettable Performances" and then forget to include a single performance in its entirety?
Customer Rating:      Summary: Fresh! Comment: So interesting and so well done! This is a great DVD> Anyone over 45 will have a trip down memory lane! An excellent tranfer too!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great gift for Parents! Comment: My parents who grew up watching Ed Sullivan loved this as a Christmas gift!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Made for the MTV crowd Comment: I suspect the five-star reviews of this DVD were written by spammers working for the company that sells it.
These compendium DVDs are routinely made by stupid jackasses who figure our attention span is only 10 seconds (the MTVers) so there's no point in showing an entire performance. What we get here is Carol Burnett talking about Ed Sullivan and occasionally throwing out little snippets of the acts. We get only a few seconds of the comedians and novelty acts, though they sometimes provide a whole song, other times a fraction of the song. This format is so annoying I didn't much like the DVD.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The really really big sheww Comment: Watching Ed Sullivan on Sunday night was an American tradition. He came out with his squinchy little body and his upraised hands and told us all that it was going to be a 'really big really big sheww' . 'Let's hear it for Curtis Le May from SAC. He 's going to bomb the Commies into Smithereens' Down there in the front row say a big hello to one of the great champeens of all time. Let's hear it for Jack Dempsey'
Ed would begin that way introducing the celebrities and warming us for Toppo Gigio the Little Italian Mouse or for , a young man from Memphis , Tennessee ( Ed could hardly hide the distaste as he pronounced the words ) Elvis Presley. "
The video contains records of some of the highlight performances, and also an interview with Ed and his wife Sylvia.
Highlights are wonderful, but my sense is that putting together a package in which the complete shows as they came on at the time would give a dimension no excerpts can.
