For those not fortunate enough to have grown up with these shows, Richard Greene is probably the second-best Robin Hood ever (Errol Flynn being number one) . The rest of the cast all seem factual for their roles, too. Stretching the Robin Hood sage out over more than 120 episodes may seem to be a daunting proposition, but each one of these episodes is at the very least a excellent arrangement to use half an hour, and the stories are always accurate to the spirit of the narrative.

So what do you glean in this station? All 39 episodes of the first season on 3 single-sided discs (not 4 as Amazon currently states), so the eagle-eyed among us will eye some artifacts resulting from that great compression. Mill Creek has pulled from a variety of sources: some very old-fashioned films, and apparently some previous video releases (even, I suspect, some European releases) . You come by to eye a couple of modern sponsor messages (Wild Rood Cream Oil and BandAids) and you are occasionally informed that “this film was flown from Europe to the US via Pan Am”, with a CBS logo or two. There are also a couple of syndication prints in which the title of the prove was changed to “Richard Greene plays Robin Hood in Adventures in Sherwood Forest”.

Because of the device this situation was effect together, the physical quality of the shows varies greatly. Some are very sad, others are too contrasty or blown out, and several have a heavy green tint to them. The ones that appear to be sourced from European videos have the best recount quality, but often have a distracting twinkling line on the left edge of the report (which you may not peruse, depending on your DVD player and TV situation) . This location cannot possess a candle to the quality of the DVDs released in the UK, but you’d pay mighty more for the UK sets.
