My Take on the DVDHey Mr. Wilson!!! I still remember watching the re-runs of this show as a kid, so this DVD set was a great one that completely took me back to my childhood. I can say that my kids had never heard of Dennis the Menace before (and I didn't want them to get ideas about how to treat our neighbors), but I relented to see what they would think. They loved it! After seeing how they reacted to this, I have half a mind to try and get them to see some of the other great shows that I remember like: Leave it to Beaver and Lassie (other shows I grew up with).
I cannot wait to share more episodes with my family, and I hope that my girls like them as much as I did growing up. This is definitely a set worth owning for any Dennis the Menace fans!
