As a kid? I like it now, still. It's still on TV here every Sunday still. Though cool to know it'll be on DVD, too.

I'm sure I'll still enjoy it I havent seen it since i was like 8 shesh lol

All I can say is, screw the Littles! When are we gonna see Dennis the Menace? Heh... actually I did love it as a Kid, but I can't really watch it now. I watched the reruns they had in syndication here (they still run them every Tuesday and Wednsday morning) and I have to say, I would NOT buy this box set. Accept it as a gift, maybe.

How can a show with such ugly animation be on DVD before Mighty Max??

As the news report tells, that's just preliminary cover-art (not a final one) -- to give people a basic look at how the box would be. The show has better animation than that.

two words.... COPYWRITE ISSUES.... Years of complainging, I realized DVD releases are all a matter of ownership. It depends on what the copywrite holders of any given show want to release. Sometimes, there are copywrite disputes. It's 2007, and we STILL don't have 1960's Batman on DVD yet.

Case in point,... the very SAME company was to release another DIC cartoon, the Get Along Gang... but American Greetings or whoever that owns the characters wasn't interrested and the whole thing fell through...

And of course the animation's ugly. it was DIC's first attempt at an anitmaed series.

...I want The Get Along Gang on DVD!!

Nay, I demand it!

The Get Along Gang, Get Along Gang.
Each one's so special in their own way
Montgomery's the leader and he's such a good sport
The Get Along Gang, Get Along Gang!

*Scandia* · 07-02-2007, 06:45 PM

Wow.

And the Littles are rather obscure.

I want to see the fourth season of Punky Brewster on DVD PRONTO!

And Defenders of the Earth as well.

This is so true on the copyright issues. I've been waiting for years now for my favorite show, Third Watch, to make it to dvd, and well, I'm still waiting. They claim it'san issue on the music it used in the series!

I've read about that happening with series (some of which end up released with other music in place of what was there).

Why must they constantly keep ruining my life!! First they Basterdise the muppets and now they are being downgraded to kiddy fodder. Ugh.
And now you tell me they own my beloved Eek! ugh and double ugh!

Blame that one on Rupert Murdoch.... I dunno what happened, but he was forced to sell FOX family for some reason, and all the Fox kids and Saban shows rights went to Disney.

One good thing, at least they released the Tick... even though they keep "Misplacing" episodes...
