Editorial Review:
Product Description: Following his breakout success on the legendary sitcom Soap, star Robert Guillaume reprises his popular role as the beloved butler Benson DuBois in the fabulous first season of this hit spin-off. Though a lifetime fixture of Soap’s crazy Tate family, Benson is sent by his employer, Jessica, to help run the disorganized household of her widowed cousin, Governor Eugene Gatling (James Noble). Once there, the fast-thinking, quick-witted servant soon finds himself not only managing the Governor’s mansion staff, headed by housekeeper Gretchen Kraus (Inga Swenson) and helping to raise the Governor’s daughter, Katie (Missy Gold), but even advising the Governor himself.

Rating: - Good ol' Benson!
I love Benson. It's just like I remember when I was a little girl. The only things I don't like is the occasional swear words and the occasional sexual innuendos.
Rating: - Fantastic television series on DVD
Benson was a wonderful television series that brought back many memories of laugher. He was somewhat synical and his life with the "not-so-smart" governor and Mrs. Kraus was so much fun to watch. It is my favorite kind of humor.
Rating: - Wonderful DVD - Benson
I have been waiting soooo long for Benson to come out on DVD. I happened to check, by accident, when I saw the DVD listings for Soap. The episodes of Benson are such classics. And so funny. I didn't know that Susan Harris, who wrote for The Golden Girls, wrote for Benson as well. I can see a little in both. Funny story telling from the Governor. Somewhat similar to Rose's Saint Olaf stories on the Golden Girls.
The packaging is good. It's the first season. Nice set of three DVDs. I love it. I really hope that they put the next season out soon.
