My Dad and three brothers and I watched the show when I was around the age of 9. I recall Mr. Ed saying "Wellll give the boy a Kewpie Doll". But I cannot find any proof online nor can I find anyone who watched the show that remembers that. Did I imagine it or maybe I heard it on another show? This has been a recurring trivia thing for me for years. My wife thinks I am nuts. Hopefully someone out there has watched the DVD's and can help me out. I think I will eventually get the DVD set for my grandkids who are in the 4-8 year range now. I am curious as to how the series ended, did it have a "Final Episode? That will be the next trivia question for me to have to answer.

I loved this programme back in the 1960s and would love to get it on DVD for a bit of nostalgic viewing, but it is not available in UK format.I have got some of my own dusty video recordings from when it was repeated on UK TV about ten years ago, and one of my favourite episodes was the keep fit one.I would like to get a DVD collection, and I am sure there are plenty of others in the UK who would buy the collection for nostalgia.Are there any plans to put Mister Ed on DVD in UK format, does anyone know?We loved it in the UK as well.

G'dayAs a young girl, I used to see Mister Ed on free to air TV. Then as an adult, I saw the repeats and realised it was a fabulous show for all ages with it's excellent humour. Actually the humour would be more appreciated by mature people than very young children. Very clever scripts with witty dialogue. I love horses but I'm sure Mister Ed wouldbe enjoyed by non-horsey people just as much as horse lovers. I would recommend the Mister Ed series to any age group. You grown ups out there, if you haven't watch any Mister Ed episodes, please do as it's definitely not just a show for children. Honestly! Three examples of the humour: (1) Kaye (with Roger behind her) runs in to tell Carol "Get your laundry, Roger is taking us to the cleaners". Carol says "That's nice of you Roger". Roger replies "That's the least I can do, she is always taking me to the cleaners".(2) Mr Ed is listening in on the extension phone and Wilbur catches him and hangs up the phone, saying "That's the last time I'm telling you not to ears-drop". Mr Ed replies "Good, because I'm sick of hearing it".(3) A new neighbour (who has been upset by Mr Ed but naturally he thinks it's Wilbur causing the problem) knocks on Wilbur's door. When Wilbour answers (Roger happens to be with him), the neighbour says with his fist ready to punch Wilbur "Do you want a punch". Roger says "The things they sell these days from door to door". You will not be disappointed if you buy the Mister Ed DVDs.(NOTE: I haven't made any spelling errors - we Australians spell some words different to how the USA spell them!
