I have great respect for Ms Stewart as a business woman and a teacher, but I was very pleased to see this DVD compilation available. Her interaction with her Mom was one of the times, on her daily show, we see her kind and warm side shine through.

I got mine yesterday and it's fantastic! The pictures are crystal clear. Easily worth the $10. However - I have a complaint. The DVD has a "tomato jam" segment without Martha's mom AND it leaves out the segment where Martha and her mom made tomato preserves. What's up with that?

While it does not have EVERY "Big Martha" appearance - it has many. I can't wait until there is a boxed set of all the old Martha shows! (BTW - love your blog!)

I received mine yesterday. I am very disappointed because mine has a horrible buzz. I contacted the seller and am waiting to hear back.

This is such a great way to honor Big Martha. I hope that there will be more DVDs offered of past shows(the older, the better) and certainly more of Big Martha!

I see that the listing has now ended. There is a disclaimer at the top of the page saying the item is no longer available. Glad I got mine just in time!

Does anyone know if there will be a series of DVDs? The introduction hinted at that.

I wondered the same thing but then I realized the DVD was made in 2008. Nothing since then.
