The Phil Silvers Show - The Complete Series Coming in November

Head into Fort Baxter with all 142-episodes of The Phil Silvers Show! Shout Factory has just announced a November 4th street date for Sgt. Bilko - The Phil Silvers Show (The Complete Series).

This is the first time the series has been put into one box set. Paramount put out a 50th-anniversary, 3-disc set in 2006, while season one was put out in 2010. Bonus content for this new series is included below.

Currently, this is a buy-only product since Shout hasn't announced plans for the release of individual seasons. However, if it's like their previous release of Leave It to Beaver, individual seasons will be forthcoming shortly after the complete series hits the streets.

The Phil Silvers Show originally ran from 1955-1959.
