The Jeffersons: The Complete Series
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
I love the series. Yes, it’s from SHOUT FACTORY so it’s not HD quality and it’s not a remastered version. Appreciate these copies as they are. No other company has taken the leap to reproduce this great TV Classics! I for one am thankful SHOUT dose this. If it wasn’t for SHOUT FACTORY I wouldn’t have many of the TV classics in my Video library that I do have. This box set is ddifficultto find and cheapest from 3rd party sellers. Yes, they want a lot of bones for it but in my opinion all three bones I spent was worth the purchase. Get it if you want it and can afford it. Appreciate the fact someone put it on DVD for us to enjoy. In my opinion the quality isn’t bad for an original copy that hasn’t been messed with. The audio and video is good for something from the 70’s and 80’s and arrived as expected. My DVD’s worked with no issues on my blu ray. I’m very thankful to add this to my collection.-RichieRich
I loved George and Weesy Louise Jefferson. The rags to riches story parallels my own in many but not all ways. I went from a lower middle class life to enjoying my time in a deluxe apartment in the sky. The Jefferson’s gave me hope growing up that I as a black autistic man good build a life for myself better off materially than life in the ghetto.
The comedy was good and the social commentary was fine too. Some shows were extremely good and heart wrenching while still fun and funny. The stories have a very dated 1970’s feel to them which is not a bad thing. The Jeffersons share an America that could exist if racism in its current and past forms went away for good. Some would say George has a racist chip on his shoulder and any black man who has moved on up understands that George is just a clear eyed realist.
While George Jefferson is played somewhat over the top he still rings true where it counts. His wife Louise Weasy is the moral compass that keeps George from fully indulging his hyper vigilant excesses. The cast is rounded out by Mr. Bentley a lovable Brit across the hall and the multi racial Willis Family! It is stupid weird how I have the same arrangement in my life for real but that’s a story for another day! This is an awesome opportunity to own the Jeffersons on DVD without commercial breaks to be seen whenever you want which is why I buy DVD’s.

What needs to be said about this classic show? From the 70s to the 80s, this show ruled TV sets across America as Americans couldn’t get enough of George, Weezy, Florence and the memorable cast of the Jefferson’s. Too many memories and too many favorite episodes, but I always loved the exchange between Mother Jefferson with Louise and George with Florence. The series actually started off more serious and dealt with heavy topics, but as time passed on the show became lighter.- K. J. B
