If you're a fan of the popular Big Valley television series, you've got to get this collection. I purchased season two after watching my season one discs two or three times over. I became a Big Valley fan in the late 1970's after the show had ended and one could only catch it in syndicated reruns on late night tv and Saturday mornings. In the past 10 or so years, I hadn't even been able to find the reruns. So I was very excited and pleasantly surprised when I took a chance and entered it on eBay to see if it was on DVD. I have discovered that I have only seen a few of the episodes in seasons one and two. Apparently, the syndicated reruns were mostly from later seasons. It's almost like discovering the show for the first time. If you're a Big Valley fan, there's a lot of great episodes to enjoy. Admittedly, I wasn't happy with the distribution of season two in two volumes; they should have put the whole season in one set as they did with season one, but it did't keep me from purchasing season two, volume 1, and I eagerly await volume 2. The packaging is great with large colorful pictures of the main characters and a brief synopsis of each episode. I don't have cable tv (extortious monthly charges)so I'm accumulating my favorite television shows on DVD instead and Big Valley is one series no fan of westerns should be without.Read full review
There's nothing wrong with the DVD. However, I wish I had known there wasn't a Season 2 Volume 2 to follow up the series. All I have been able to find is either this OR the entire Season 2. Otherwise, good buy.

I greatly enjoy the Big Valley and I can't wait til volumn 2 comes out. The Barkleys are a wonderful family because they stay together through all trials and their love and commitment toward each other is something that lacks in our society. Like Heath, I was also a half brother who came to live in a family but I wasnever accepted by my syblings and I grew up feeling a lot of bitterness and rejection. The Barkleys are a prime example of the way family members should stick together and build each other up. This series is a prime example of the way America used to be when families meant something and parents were responsible for teaching their children right from wrong instead of the State. Americans were stronger in the 1800's because they had a reason to live and their priorities were more than sexual pleasure and self dstruction like people's are today. America was a land of oportunity and the mother land of invention. People worked did an honest day's work for a living and they cared more about reaching a goal than keeping up with the Joneses. True, America had its share of problems but teenagers didn't go around committing mass murder in schools, terroristrs didn't commit mass attacks upon our soil, and people had more of a reason to live than they do today. If we honestly want to save our nation from oblivion, we should forsake our leftit anti-family liberal propoganda and return to the Christian beliefs we once knew. I honestly believe that family programs like the Big Valley demonastrated these priceless values even though the actors who sterred in the series might never have lived them.Read full review
I purchased the dvd's of season 2 of Big Valley b/c I love the show. I have loved it since it aired. I tried to find it in stores in my area and it wasn't available but I knew EBay would have it!!! It proved to be exactly what I wanted. The dvd's were excellent quality. The color, sound, and picture were just like it looked originally on tv. When purchasing dvd's released of older tv programs you never know what the quality will be but these were perfect.
Love it!!!
