The DVD is made by ESPN Home Entertainment. It was probably featured on ESPN. So those who are either indifferent or just plain not interested in sports, would likely pass on this movie, which would be a shame because this movie is much more than "just another movie with a sports related theme". While the movie has a sports related theme, namely Army football, the story is rooted in the keeping of the honor code, a code that must never be broken. Loyalty is also a code that must never be broken. The movie, which is based on a true story, is about a group of cadets at West Point who after operating a cheating ring so they could play football for the greatest team in the country and maintain their grade average, are forced to choose between honor (a cadet never cheats) and loyalty (a cadet never betrays the trust of his fellow cadets). A lot of research went into this movie and a lot of homework was done to make this movie as authentic as possible, successfully capturing West Point as it was in 1950, complete with haircuts, uniforms, etc. I had to give this movie an 8 only because Harkins' ribbons were worn out of order and his collar device was worn wrong. As a (Go Navy) retiree, I have seen ribbon infractions on high ranking officers. So maybe I shouldn't be too hard on the make up crew for allowing the uniform infractions on Harkins' uniform. This is an excellent movie that could be watched over and over again.
I remember watching Q.T.HUSH in 1961 when it was shown around dinner time. I thought it was so cool. But then again, I was only 7.
In 1971, Q.T.HUSH was aired on WUTV Channel 29 from Grand Island, NY. Being older and wiser, I understood the tongue-in-cheek humor in the plots involving criminals with names like "Al Cologne". The episodes were short 10-minute cliff hangers which were to be continued. This idea would later be used with BATMAN in 1966.
Q.T.HUSH had the same silliness as ROCKY & BULLWINKLE, though the humor of Q.T.HUSH got lost in the artwork, which unlike ROCKY & BULLWINKLE was not "so bad that it was good". The artwork of Q.T.HUSH was dark and eerie (even though the animation was simple). The background images were well drawn and detailed. For example, the blinds in the police station looked old and in need of replacement. The street lights cast an eerie glow on the seedy city streets. And the music was done in a style that was clearly a jazz/blues fusion that was just too cool for words.
While watching a few episodes, I recognized the voice talents of the late great Dal McKennon. The vocal style of Q.T.Hush would be used for "Mr, Weatherbee" on the ARCHIE cartoon and the vocal style of "Seamus" would be used for "Archie" himself.
In spite of the flaws in the series, one must remember that it was intended to be a filler between a local program that ended with time to spare and the local news. Still, it was an entertaining feature that would generate quite a bit of interest as a DVD set. And, like it or hate it, Q.T.HUSH is better than the garbage being made today. There's no comparison!

THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY was a big hit when it first aired in September 1970. Music from the TV show quickly got radio air play and sold millions. So the big question is "How is this 'another overlooked classic'?"
THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY was aimed at the pre-teen audience. So those of us who were a bit older thought we were too cool to count ourselves as fans. What a shame!
THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY was a really funny sitcom that did not resort to scraping the bottom of the barrel for ideas. At least not for the first three seasons. Yet, the writers did stick their necks out a bit, taking risks by tackling some of the issues of the time, such as women's rights, racial discrimination (with Richard Prior guest starring), even the ecology.
The chemistry was perfect. Dave Madden, comic veteran from CAMP RUNAMUCK and LAUGH- IN, playing the frustrated manager, Rueben Kincaid, who loved money as much as he disliked children, is forever matching wits with Danny, the 10-year old financial wizard. This alone is enough to make a great sit-com. Add Keith, whose interest in girls and Laurie, the feminist who wants to change the world to the cast along with 2 younger siblings and a nervous mother who is trying to make order out of chaos. And you have a hit show!
The music was great as well. But what do you expect when it is produced by Wes Farrel for Coral Rock Productions., which has also produced a lot of great '60s rock groups. With the best writers along with the best session musicians hired to provide the music, what else would you expect?. Give the music a listen and you will hear Beach Boys inspired harmonies and other musical influences from the great rock and roll acts. Throw in the musical talents of David Cassidy and Shirley Jones and the result is a wonderful sound that is uniquely their own.
