Best of Danny Kaye, The: The Television Years (VHS, 1999)

I have been a Danny Kaye fan ever since I saw Court Jester several years ago, even though most people of my generation don't even know who he is. I don't know why this tape cost so little, but it was phenomenal!

A compilation of various clips from the Danny Kaye television series and a two from Court Jester, I love popping in this tape to make me smile whenever the day gets me down. My husband heard about Danny Kaye through me, and I've even seen him watch some of it when he thinks I'm not looking. ^.~

While there is no plot and nothing really ties the clips together, Danny Kaye's phenomenal voice is a pleasure to listen to any time. I love it!

This program is a collection of some of Danny Kaye's television program with a couple of clips from his movie "The Court Jester". I have seen better footage. I think that instead of just jumping from selection to selection, that if the producer would have added some comments from Danny Kaye or guest stars of the show. It would have made it more complete and more like a documentoray.

The Danny Kaye video certainly brought back some memories for me. Especially the TV episodes. I only wish one of them had been shown in its entirety though. I'm referring to the one where he attended a class for expectant fathers.
