Now on DVD: The Great American Dream Machine

Posted on November 18, 2015 at 8:00 am

Between the anarchic comedy of “Rowen and Martin’s Laugh-In” and sketch comedy powerhouse “Saturday Night Live” was the outrageously funny PBS series The Great American Dream Machine from 1971-73. It was hosted by humorist and commentator Marshall Efron and featured Chevy Chase, Albert Brooks, and Andy Rooney, and it featured sketches, short films, and political commentary.

This classic show is now available on DVD and I am delighted to have one to give away. Send me an email at moviemom@moviemom.com with American in the subject line and tell me your favorite PBS series. Don’t forget your address! (US addresses only) I’ll pick a winner at random on November 30, 2015.
