Movie Reviews of Love American Style - Season 1, Vol. 1
Movie Review: Love American Style, it's me and you.
Summary: 5 Stars
Love American Style (1969-74) was a comedy featuring well-known guests stars of movies and television. Each one-hour color episode (later 30 minutes) contained 2 or 3 and sometimes 4 different stories of love and romance. In between the stories would be short, funny skits with a regular cast of Stuart Margolin, Barbara Minkus, Phyllis Davis, James Hampton, Tracy Reed, Lynne Marta and many others.
Everyone remembers the song "Love American Style". In the first season, it was sung by The Cowsills, who returned 30 years later to sing it again at the 2nd TV Land Awards in 2004.
The way we mostly remember "Love American Style" being sung will be heard in Season 2.
You also remember the red, white and blue heart and fireworks.
You might also recall some episodes with Paul Lynde or the one with Phyllis Diller about women's liberation and burning your bra (not in this DVD set).
However, did you know the tv series, Happy Days - The Complete First Season (1974-84), got its start from a story on "Love American Style"? The Season 3 episode, "Love and Happy Days" starred Marion Ross, Ron Howard, Anson Williams.
This DVD contains the first 12 episodes, but you will get 37 different stories with recognizable guest stars:
Michael Callan, Penny Fuller, Yvonne Craig, David Ketchum, Don Diamond, Eddie "Rochester" Anderson, Flip Wilson, Gail Fisher, Robert Cummings, Jane Wyatt, David Ladd, Arte Johnson, Marilyn Mason, Estelle Winwood, Richard X. Slattery, Reni Santoni, Robert Clary, Margaret O'Brien, Yoshio Yoda, Henry Corden, Pedro Gonzalez Gonzalez, E.J.

The first episode and first story starring Michael Callan and Penny Fuller was so cute, they continue the couples story in episode 11.
Michael Callan & Penny Fuller also appeared in the same "Barnaby Jones" tv series episode, "poisoned pigeon" in March 1975.
Love, American Style was shown on ABC on Friday nights on rotation with Room 222: Season One (1969-74), The Odd Couple - The First Season (1970-75) and The Partridge Family - The Complete First Season (1970-74).
You probably remember them on syndication during the afternoon. There was no more Dark Shadows, so it was Love American Style or the KABC 3:30 Afternoon movie.
These season one episodes were one hour long. They changed to 30 minutes in 1970-71 and back to 60 minutes in 1971-74.
A revival, The New Love American Style (1985-86).
Released by CBS DVD, this 3-disc set list each episode inside the container
The print of each episode is perfectly crisp and clear and the color is rich, much better than what we saw in syndication when we were...well let's not date ourselves.
Let's go back to our youth and enjoy love in the afternoon.
The next 12 episodes are available in Love American Style - Season 1, Vol. 2.
