Few shows represent the pinnacle of television’s inane possibilities better than Mister Ed. My Mother the Car, perhaps. And yet, considering the truly idiotic fare that takes up so much airtime these days, I can’t say that I don’t enjoy a bit of the silly fun that was all over the place not that long ago.
While there have been a couple of DVD releases along the “Best of” lines, the complete first season is now available for the first time. 26 episodes on 4 discs.
The first series ever to debut as a mid-season replacement, Mister Ed also became the first syndicated series ever to be picked up by a network when CBS adopted the show in 1961. Winning the Golden Globe Award for Best TV Show in 1963, the show proved that a crazy premise could be taken seriously and provide entertainment.
Go back to the beginning, and watch as mild-mannered Wilbur Post moves into his new house with this wife Carol, only to discover that the old owner left his horse. Hilarity ensues, and for the most part it actually does for those who can live with the show’s premise.
The DVD release includes interviews with stars Alan Young, and Connie Hines, audio commentary on the pilot with both Young and Hines, and an episode that was never broadcast.

I can't help it- I love Mister Ed! It would be so cool to win this.
Shout! sure has been the place to go for classic TV on DVD these days.
I want to win this.
I want to win this.
I think there needs to be more shows like Mr. ED today. The crap thats being shoved down our throat by the networks needs to come to an end. And they need to start hiring actors again. I am truly amazed that all the reality shows have any audience. Mr. ED shows wacky comedy that most of the watching public truly enjoy. If they started airing Mr.ED in primetime again I think it would win the hearts of millions all over again.
I would love to Win this dvd because it represents the golden age of tv which I grew up watching. Thank you very much for this chance on this great Mr. Ed collection
