Product Description
The humorous adventures of a thirty-ish, single woman trying to make her way in Minneapolis after breaking off her engagement to her long-time fiancÂe
Amazon.com
Unlike Mary Richards, who is depressed because she is in a rut in the episode "Mary Moves Out," The Mary Tyler Moore Show was never better in its penultimate season. Four words: "Chuckles Bites the Dust." This brilliantly written black comedy, ranked No. 3 by TV Guide on its 2009 list of TV's Top 100 Episodes of All Time, is an Emmy-winning episode to die for. In it, Mary is appalled that her newsroom colleagues callously make jokes about the bizarre death of Chuckles the Clown (he was killed by a rogue elephant while dressed as a peanut in a circus parade). But this season is no one-episode wonder. With Rhoda and Phyllis gone, the core ensemble of Mary Tyler Moore, Ted Knight, and Betty White--Emmy-winners all this season--plus Gavin McLeod and Emmy nominees Ed Asner and Georgia Engel, really step up. Asner is particularly fine throughout, whether bravely attending his ex-wife's wedding, trying to convince Ted Baxter to give up his lucrative new job as a "quizmaster" to stay at WJM, or giving a no-good old flame her much-needed comeuppance. This season offers two dandy Mary and Lou episodes. In "Once I Had a Secret Love," Mary reveals a devastating secret about Lou that seriously threatens their friendship, and in "The Seminar," Mary and Lou visit Washington, D.C., where Mary fears time has passed Lou by when none of his former D.C. cronies initially contact him. Betty Ford has an amusing cameo. McLeod, one of the series' unsung heroes, has one of his best episodes with "Murray in Love," in which he is compelled to tell Mary that he is in love with her. Between Mary's new boyfriend (Ted Bessell from the groundbreaking That Girl) and Ted and Georgette's wedding (Georgette loves Ted, she sweetly tells Mary--"Somebody has to"), the writers continue to further explore and evolve these beloved characters. "Sometimes you really surprise me," Mary admiringly tells Lou in "Mary's Aunt," and so does The Mary Tyler Moore Show --Donald Liebenson

 Disappointed in Packaging September 1, 2010
J. Holte (Minnesota)
I previously bought seasons, I, II, III, and IV. They came in a nice box, with individual holders for each disk, and a listing of all the episode titles. Even a brief description of each episode. This set came in a plastic case with no episode listing what-so-ever. I do not know if this is because of the seller I chose. Perhaps I should have bought direct from Amazon.com.
 great DVD; disappointed with Amazon September 1, 2010
Ruth
No complaints about this DVD or shipping, but very disappointed with Amazon's pricing. A day after it arrived, I saw the same DVD at Costco for $11.00 less!
MTM season 6 August 24, 2010
Zed
Of course, I miss Rhoda and Phyllis, but this season still gave me some hardy laughs.
 Poor Packaging & Quality August 22, 2010
Gloria G. Marshall
I love all the MTM's, however I'm so disappointed in the 5th & 6th year packaging. It's poor, cheap quality is a real let down and does not match with the first four seasons. After returning the the broken case for the 6th season, I have now dicovered that disc 3 is defective in several areas........no sound, and/or feezing up.
Mary Tyler Moore would NOT be happy!
