Next to Andy Hardy this was MGM's 2nd biggest series. The first 16 movies were great stories about Dr. Kildare and dealt with mystery, drama, romance and comedy. The first starred Joel McCrea and Barbara Stanwyck and proved so popular they continued the series with Lew Ayers and Lionel Barrymore. When World War II arrived, Lew Ayers was forced to leave his role because of political reasons and the series continued with Lionel Barrymore continuing the role of Dr. Gillespie and a series of other stars including Van Johnson and Red Skelton. This is truly a very rare set and the quality is very good. You can buy just the Kildare movies, Gillespie movies or the entire set. These movies generally run close to an hour and half each.
