"Very good, however it is 100% identical to Victor Borge Act One and Two."
A Masterpiece from the Master Himself!!

"Victor Borge was possibly the funniest stand-up (with the occassional sit-down) comedian of all times...he combined superlative piano-playing, with even more superlative humour, with a sense of timing & panache that most comedians would give their sense of humour for.
This DVD has some classic episodes (with the Muppets, an old, but rib-tickling episode as Liszt, and of course, his classic Phonetic Punctuation, An Opera by Mozart & the pianoforte duet played with a Turkish Pianist).
All parents should vaccinate their children with a regular dose of Borge, to demonstrate how humour can be outstanding without the use of excessive vulgarity or tastelessness (which seems to be the rule today).
Bravo, Mr. Borge, may your humour never die !!!!

Not the best...

"Yes, Victor Borge was a master. But this was not the best DVD. The price was a bit much for 75 minutes and 1/3 of it was black and white. If you can get The Best of Victor Borge Act One and Two (1990). It is 90 minutes long and less expensive.

Not so great...

"There is another version out there, maybe the 2000 edition (not sure if this was the 1996 edition?) that was much much better. This DVD was dissapointing and the best part was at the end of the DVD where they just jumped into the middle of his performance and only showed about 2 minutes of it. I do not recommend this version."
Missing the best of all....

"OK, Victor is definitly on of the funniest performers ever.
Nevertheless, after seeing through this one, I really miss the most funny clip ever, namely the Singing-Punctuation part with Dean Martin on Deans show. No collections are complete without that one, but luckily you can check it out on YouTube."
