"It's what every 'Sgt. Bilko' fan has been waiting for! The Phil Silvers Show arrives on DVD with all 34 episodes from the classis first season, digitally remastered on 5 discs. This Emmy-winning sitcom was one of early television's first mega-hits, with snappy dialogues and brilliant visual gags performed by comic genius Phil Silvers (It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World), starring as Master Sergeant Ernest G. Bilko. As head of the motor pool at Fort Baxter in Roseville, Kansas, the fast-talking Bilko is a regular at every poker game in town. His other platoon members are a motley group of lovable goons who would follow their beloved leader anywhere, knowing deep down that Bilko's really a softly a softy with a heart of gold. Co-starring Harvey Lembeck, Allan Melvin, and Paul Ford as Colonel Hall, The Phil Silvers Show is one of TV's true comedy masterpieces, and the entire first season is now available on DVD!"--Container.
