The content of these discs is almost the same as the Catcom Home Video discs seen on Reviews Page 2. The same graphic of a television screen is used on both except "Catcom" has been replaced with "Raintree".

Picture quality is a bit dark and grainy. Some episodes have a few large scratches on the film. Sound quality is good. Every episode is complete and uncut, however the original theme music has been replaced with a different tune. Even with these flaws, the nice thing about this DVD set is the vintage commercials. The Post Cereals commercials are the best as they actually feature characters from The Andy Griffith Show. There is one with just Andy, one with Andy and Barney, and (my favorite) one with Andy and the two little old ladies from the episode, "Alcohol and Old Lace."
