The Bob Newhart Show - The Complete Third Season

I'm not sure why I added an exclamation point. But, those episodes are super fun!

I just ordered (and received) Season 4 of The Bob Newhart Show. After watching seasons 1, 2 and 3, I'm now remembering what a great comedy series this is! Every character in this series is such a funny person within themselves, and everyone together just makes the series so very enjoyable. I used to watch this series years ago when it ran originally but so many years have passed that it now feels like I'm watching a new series all over again! And my daughter is watching it with me (obviously first time for her) and enjoys it, too, so you can see it's not just a generational type of show but can be enjoyed by all. Bob Newhart has that dry, almost serious comedy funniness about him - you've got to love him as well as this show. I highly recommend it to those who may have seen this show when it originally ran, who want to relive the fun of this comedy series again like I am, and those younger who've never seen or heard of it. You will truly laugh out loud having fun watching this show!

For the past thirty or so years I've remembered the classic ice cream restaurant spoof where Bob tries not to attract the attention of the obnoxious waiters and ends up being celebrated as a "single scooper party pooper". This was likely a spoof of the Farrell's chain of ice cream restaurants that hit their peak of popularity just about the time of this season of Bob Newhart.That was the single funniest sit-com moment of my pre-teen years and I wondered if I would ever see it again. I did research to find out what season this episode is in, and it turned out to be this season so I bought it.I had a great time watching that episode, but the others are good too. I like a sit com with great chemistry and subtle humor (not many of those around these days) and this one delivers. Now that I'm a grown-up, it's even funnier.

For me, the show's originality was of course fading but the creativity was also suffering. Bob's character was still strong and so were most of the patients (especially Carlin). But overall, the ideas were just not strong enough for believable compelling episodes any more. Really hit and miss with Season 3, with about only 1 in 3 having the old charm and strength of the previous 2 seasons. Howard, who used to be lovable in a kindly endearing was had transformed into a bumbling rather annoying idiot. Bob's sister's presence didn't really add much to the show in way of humor or, well......anything else either. Still enjoyable. Susan Plechette's presence is reason enough to watch, as she's not only gorgeous but extremely talented as well. A visibly strong presence. A woman of strength and character. If I had to do it again, I probably wouldn't have ordered this season. Or waited until I could have found it a bit cheaper.

Bob Newhart show and cast is great, enjoyable entrainment especially these days.

Any show with Bob Newhart is sure to be a winner, and this, his first series, is no exception. It is timeless and although I have seen this show many times, I still laugh as if it is the first time viewing.One of the best comedies ever, with a wonderful cast!I would recommend highly!

It was a lot of fun to revisit Bob and his patients Mr Carlin and Mr Herd Actually Bob at work is much more fun Its a very good cast but Howard He really is a bit too stupid for me but to each his ownI love the show and when Amazon has a TV DVD sale you can get this at a great price but even off sale to get 25 or more shows for about a dollar a show its a great dealI Now have the first three seasons and will buy them all eventuallyHope you enjoy

I have just received (yesterday) THE BOB NEWHART SHOW. I should note that I live in Venezuela, and the receipt of the goods takes a little longer, but yesterday I saw one episode of the third season,and I laughed a lot. It had excellent picture quality and sound. It was in Spanish as well as English, and subtitles in both languages. Great. I can improve my English reading the subtitles in English. Everything is excellent.. You're outstanding. Thank you very much.

What a great and wholesome show. I recommend to anyone who likes the comedy style of Bob Newhart! They have also finally released seasons 5-6 which they had previously decided that they were not going to do.

Classic goodness. The show is one you can just put on and let play and you can watch or just listen. No high pressure.

We really enjoy viewing the 'older video shows' from our 'youth'

Bob rocks...Funny .....Chicago based show..

OK
