*THE JUDY GARLAND SHOW VOL. 7 - MORE JUDY
Complete episodes of The Judy Garland Show - Volume 7 (due to a change
in numbering, there was no Volume 6). The combination of episodes not only
provides an overview of the show's brand of variety entertainment, but
demonstrates why it was such a good showcase for Garland in her post-Hollywood
career. Episode 14 (aired 12/29/63) features Bobby Darin's singing, some
comedy by Bob Newhart (including a self-deprecating sketch with him and
Garland), and a dance number, but also a number of songs by Garland. Episode
23 (3/8/64) is all Garland, as she performs a solid hour of songs from the
movies, and yes, that includes "The Boy Next Door," "The Atchison, Topeka &
the Santa Fe," and "The Man That Got Away" (but not "Over the Rainbow"). Making
the DVD even better are outtakes (not just funny bloopers, but a story and a
three-song sequence), extensive liner notes, and a very interesting commentary
track by series producer Gary Smith (he describes the joys and frustrations of
working with Garland and explains that the show tried a lot of different ideas
at the network's urging in hopes of improving the ratings).

*THE JUDY GARLAND SHOW VOL. 8 - FINAL CHAPTER
This release includes episodes 11, 20 and 26 of Judy Garland's 1963-64
television series.
The magnificent Judy Garland closes out her magnificent television series
with the last DVD volume, Final Chapter. Episode 11 is of the
usual variety format, mixing guests Steve Allen, Jayne Meadows, and Mel Torme
with dances and comedy. Episode 20 takes the concert format, highlights
of which are the program of Americana Garland conceived of shortly after JFK's
death and her songs to all her children (one for Lorna Luft had to be specially
created). Episode 26 was the last of the series, and what makes it
particularly notable is not just the show as it was broadcast, but the extra
disc of outtakes. Due to various problems, Garland was unable to record enough
material for a complete show so segments from previous episodes were used to
fill the gaps. The outtakes allow us to see what Garland had in mind for that
finale, including a dance of her own devising to "Where Is the Clown." It's
fascinating to watch the artist at work as she runs through multiple takes. But
because the number was never finished and never aired, also not aired was the
emotional "Here's to Us" finale because Garland was still in clown makeup as she
bid farewell to her audience, her family, and her fellow performers. It's the
finale Garland should have had, and its inclusion here is just one reason
why The Judy Garland Show, as impressive as it was in 1963-64 when it
presented the 20th century's greatest entertainer in a forum that best displayed
her talent, is even better as it's preserved on DVD.
