Introducing the fourth and final season of this delightful and thrilling series featuring Richard Greene as Robin Hood in a portrayal that endeared him to millions of families and fans on both sides of the Atlantic.
"I pre-ordered this item about 3 months ago and very excitedly received it just a week ago, only to find that the first disc, supposedly containing 13 episodes, only contains 10. It is missing "The Loaf", "Tuck's Love Day", and "Six Strings to His Bow". Not only that, but the rest of the remaining episodes are out of order as written on the disc and the guide on the back, making it a bit confusing (they don't jive chronologically). I loved the first three seasons that Mill Creek put out, they did a wonderful job, but I wish I hadn't pre-ordered this one because of the quality of the others... apparently, since I have had it "ordered" for more than the 30 days return policy, I can't return it. I will work on this through Amazon, they are usually accommodating, but if you are considering ordering this Fourth Season, you might want to wait until they have worked the bugs out of their new release."
Excellent blast from a better past

"This wonderful series from the mid-1950's has a heart, a mind and a social conscience. The acting is top notch and the production values very good."

"Thanks to the warning from Ms. Grant, I checked with Mill Creek before ordering the fourth season from Amazon. The project manager assured me that the problems had been addressed, and I am happy to say he was quite right. The episodes Ms. Grant noted as missing have been restored, so buyers can order with confidence that they will be receiving a set of just as high a quality as its predecessors."
Good, old-fashioned adventure

"I've purchased every season of this classic series and have not been disappointed by any of them. Each episode is a self-contained adventure featuring the well-known characters from the Robin Hood story legend. The stories hold up surprisingly well for their age, though the action is very "PG". The violence is not graphic, and, of course, it's not as realistic as modern drama. The main selling point of this show over other 50's shows is that it's not cheesy.
If you like something gentle and light to entertain you on a weekend afternoon, these stories are perfect. They're also good for families with children.
Note that the series is quite old and the quality is not pristine (though certainly not bad at all). If you're looking for something which will blow you away with quality and effects, this is not your show."
As good a TV shows as was ever made

"I forgot how good this show was.
Well written little stories.
Better now that I understand English history better.
Other than Robin and the sheriff, the history is
close to being correct except I don't believe there
