F Troop

"Another "must buy" box set along with numerous other American TV shows (a list too long to mention). I live in the UK and the TV stations here seem reluctant to show classic TV even with the advent of satellite/cable. I used to be very envious of American viewers who had access to TV Land, however I now see that they no longer show classic shows from the 60's preferring to now stick to shows from the 80's onwards.
I purchased Season 1 when it was released and laughed from start to finish, even my wife who never saw the original limited run of the show enjoys watching it and laughs just as much as myself.
I can't remember much about season 2 although I will when I watch the DVD, one thing I do remember is that it was very funny and would recommend anyone to purchase it."

"I am a huge fan of "F Troop" and loved the Complete First Season box set. My dad really loved it. Over the course of a week or two, we went through the entire season, laughing hysterically all the way. Just as we will with this one.
This show is an undisputed classic. As well as unappreciated and woefully undershown these days. TV Land has become a sad joke, showing nothing but lousy '80 junk like "Knight Rider", "The A-Team" and "MacGiver". As well as more lousy '70's cheese like "Happy Days", "Diff'rent Strokes" and "Soap". And they're trying to sneak in some '90's crap with "Wings". Hardly classics.
But anyway, I'm now all geared up for Season Two of "F Troop". I would say "Bring on all the rest of the seasons", but sadly, this is the final one. One of those two-season gems, along with "The Munsters", which, I guess were just too good for television. We'll never see their like again.
And that's sad."

"I can't wait for season 2 of F Troop! I am glad that there are enough of us out there who bought season 1 that the studio is putting out season 2. With the upcoming release of McHale's Navy season 1 and Wild, Wild West season 2, this is going to be a 60's retro spring for me.
The second season of F Troop includes some great guest stars, with the Vincent Price episode being my favorite. Sad that with over 60 cable channels at my disposal, I spend most of my TV watching time with these old series."

"We now come to the second and final season of F Troop. All the usual suspects are back and in this set we are treated to color and a new opening theme. Being in color gives the series a different feel; not better or worse, just different. Also the beautiful Wrangler Jane (Melody Patterson) is now of legal age and her romantic advances towards Capt. Parmenter are more evident.
Every character makes me laugh, especially when "Cowboy" Bob Steele as Duffy starts reliving events at the Alamo. Ken Berry provides physical comedy at Dick Van Dyke levels, Frank DeKova's wonderful send-up as Chief Wild Eagle, Forrest Tucker as Sgt. Morgan O'Rourke and best of all, Larry Storch as Cpl. Randolph Agarn. His antics in calling the troops to attention, prompting them to laugh for the Captain, his indignant statements such as "What about the Easter Bunny?" and his funniest line in season two, "Who says I'm dumb?"! And of course don't forget the lesser known troopers: Gilbert & Sullivan, Stanley & Livingston and Lewis & Clark! :):):)
As said before, "F Troop" was far ahead of its time. Both seasons provide clean, enjoyable humor for the entire family!
Mini update: In Episode 19, "The Sargeant and the Kid", the young boy is portrayed by Peter Robbins, which of course is the 'original' voice of Charlie Brown. Close your eyes and listen during the episode and you surely hear good old CB from the Christmas and Halloween presentations!"
