Movie Reviews of Groucho Marx - You Bet Your Life
Movie Review: The Secret Word Is "Classic"
Summary: 5 Stars
"You Bet Your Life" was one of the first television game shows to have been filmed in advance, allowing it to become the first game show to have it's reruns syndicated to local stations after it's network run ended in 1961.
Perhaps the best part of this DVD is that only two of the thirteen episodes included were from the syndication package (which was known as "The Best Of Groucho"), and that most of the other episodes were not only in their original NBC broadcast format, but also included vintage commercials for the show's longtime sponsor DeSoto, a long-gone automobile make that was manufactured by Chrysler Corporation.
For the most part, the shows in this collection are presented the way millions of viewers saw them in the 1950's.
Fans of Groucho, the Marx Brothers, classic television and/or TV game shows in general will want to pick-up this DVD. It is an inexpensively-priced introduction to one of the most hilarious programs from the "Golden Age Of Television". If you like this DVD, you can then come back to Amazon and order "'You Bet Your Life': The Best Episodes" and "'You Bet Your Life': The Lost Episodes".
