 Low on storyline and unresolved story elements Nov 12, 2004
In it's attempt to imitate real life the Partridge Family was often weak on plot. Also, it's really raw looking (the early 70's and all). I hope we never go back to this way of life again (like we were in the real 70's). Being part of society is better than dropping out of it.

 VH1-The Partridge Family Garry, Liz, pearl, Morgan Cassiday Sep 06, 2004
I hope you all are getting happy with the VH1 special! I hope they pick up the show instead of just one pilot. I hope the Partridge family become big once again, and spread love and the message of peace all over the United States! I hope that these very few available tapes on the blessed Amazon, start the seeds and grow into a groovy wave in America of colorful creativity. All my love as Keith Partridge as Garry Hixon and Mirror Vision is the coolest! This is the best year of our lives, may our youth, and our fans, get continued warmth from the Partridges, may you all grow in itelligence and lasting wisdom, have a great day!-peace and love from the Partridge family!-Garry, Liz, Pearl, Cassiday, and Morgan!-Roandoak forever-love keith(Garry Hixon)

"The Partridge Family Is The Best TV Show Ever!" May 12, 2001
I liked "The Partridge Family Video Collection". The first three episodes are hilarious! In "What? And Get Out Of Show Business?",we see Shirley Partridge(Shirley Jones) as a mom to her five kids: 16-year-old Keith(David Cassidy),15-year-old Laurie(Susan Dey),10-year-old Danny(Danny Bonaduce),7-year-old Chris(Jeremy Gelbwaks) and 5-year-old Tracy(Suzanne Crough). They get a manager named Reuben Kincaid(David Madden) to help out.In "Old Srapmouth" Laurie is convinced that she has to wear braces for six months. Mark Hamill of "The Star Wars Trilogy" guest stars as Lauries friend,Jerry. And in "Anchors Aweigh",the last episode in the series,Shirley's boyfriend Chuck "Cuddles" Corwin(George Chakiris)drops by to meet Shirley,but Keith and Danny follow them on their date. Partridge fact: The two theme songs you hear are both written by Wes Farrell: "When We're Singin'" was put in the series first season and "Come On,Get Happy" was put in the 2nd-4th season. The song "Together"("Havin' A Ball") was put in the credits in the pilot episode.

"The Beginning Of The Partridge Family" Nov 04, 2000
In "What? And Get Out Of Showbusiness?",we see how this 4-year adventure starts. There's 16-year-old Keith (David Cassidy),15-year-old Laurie(Susan Dey),10-year-old Danny (Danny Bonaduce),7-year-old Chris (Jeremy Gelbwaks),and 5-year-old Tracy (Suzanne Crough).Their mom (Shirley Jones) joins the band,along with manager Reuben Kincaid (Dave Madden). In "Old Scrapmouth",Laurie gets braces,and doesn't want to talk or sing when the family goes on a TV show. Mark Hamill ("Star Wars") guest stars as Jerry. And in "Anchors Aweigh",Shirley meets up with "Captain Cuddles", but Keith and Danny get suspicious about their mom going out. This was the shows final episode,which aired August 31,1974. The pilot episode debuted September 25,1970. The theme songs are "When We're Singin'" and "Come On,Get Happy". In the pilot episode,the theme song is "Together"("Havin' A Ball"). These are great episodes for the whole family to enjoy!

"The Partridge Family Is GROOOOOOOOOOVY!" Oct 12, 2000
"The Partridge Family" debuted on ABC on September 25,1970. It featured Shirley Jones as Shirley Partridge,David Cassidy as Keith,Susan Dey as Lauren "Laurie" Partridge, Danny Bonaduce as Daniel "Danny" Partridge,Jeremy Gelbwaks & Brian Forster as Christopher "Chris" Partridge,Suzanne Crough as Tracy Partridge,and Dave Madden as Reuben Kincaid. I like both theme songs,but in the pilot episode "What? And Get Out Of Showbusiness?" the theme song was "tOGETHEr"("Havin' A Ball") I suggest you add this to your collection,so you can celebrate "The Partridge Family" over and over again!
