And a cheap one at that... compared to th 100-200 dollar price tags most complete series have, it's only 60 bucks....

*VaughnMichael* · 09-29-2008, 04:25 PM

Damn I was gonna b1tch about buying the first season set and how they're pulling a Fraggle Rock on this set.
But at $60.00 whatever F%ck the first season set I'll just buy this now.
Now if only Cartoon Network would get off it's @ss and release the rest of Fosters.

If only Cartoon network would get off its ass and release Dexter and the rest... Seems that other than Ben 10, they aren't even trying with season sets anymore. There will be a Chowder volume based release... that's about all I know.

I really hope this is successful enough to release other shows like this. I mean, PPG DID pretty much put CN on the map, but they forgot Dexter and Johnny Bravo... their 2 other big first hits.

And I hope this also gets them to rerelease the PPG movie with a Widescreen format. In full frame, we lose a cameo by Master Shake... or so I'm told...

*Hannah* · 09-29-2008, 10:41 PM

I am so happy right now

*gobo* · 09-29-2008, 11:36 PM

In as much as Dexter's Lab is older than PPG, it'll be a few more years before it can use the anniversary excuse, right?

Dexter's, Johnny Bravo and PPG were my fave CN originals, so I really hope those other two get released in something other than freakin' compilations in the near future...

I remember when I saw this in theaters that I saw something black & orange, and immediately wondered if that was supposed to be the ATHF logo. Then, when I got home, I find everyone on the internet all a chatter about the ATHF cross-promotion on the PPG movie. So, as far as I know, that glimpse of the logo was the extent of it.

Wasn't "Cow and Chicken" one of CN orginals too? I really wish they would release that. My love for Cow and Chicken was like a dirty little secret I had back then. I watched it constantly but only when one else was around. I got way more amusment out of that than I think was proper.

*gobo* · 09-30-2008, 12:25 AM

The Ren & Stimpy knockoff? Yeah, that was a CN original. Maybe you should have kept that dirty little secret a secret still. *turns his nose up @ u*

**GK Punk** · 09-30-2008, 12:38 AM

I cant wait to get this set. I adore PPG.

Banned.

(I liked that show too... I loved most of the CN originals)

Didn't say it was a ripoff (though I guess "knockoff" has pretty much the same definition). But, 'Cow & Chicken' was clearly 'modeled' after 'Ren & Stimpy'. I somehow imagine the director would cite Ren & Stimpy as his biggest influence.

Harukuro · 09-30-2008, 06:47 AM

Wow it's been 10 years already.

That was one of my favorite shows when I was a kid, I can't WAIT to get this. Now if only they would release Johnny Bravo, my dad loved that show.

*BubblyShell22* · 09-30-2008, 08:40 AM

Whoo Hoo! I can't wait for this to come out. I'm so getting it as soon as I can. Hopefully when this does come out, I'll have a job and will be able to pay for it. Or, I can always ask my mom to get it for me for Christmas or my birthday. Any info on when it's gonna be released? I can't open up that link. I'm so telling my mom about this today.

Oh, and I also loved Cow and Chicken. I thought it was funny, and I do a pretty good imitation of Cow. Yep, I'm a dork.

Jon · 09-30-2008, 10:24 AM

The release date is Jan. 20th.

Artistically? Not even then. In fact, I heard that David Feiss is one of John K's friends or something. At least a profile of him is on the "Lost season" or Ren and Stimpy set. Cow and Chicken was a brilliantly stupid show, though I tend to prefer I M Weasel a little more. But any of those great old CN originals... and some of the recently canceled stuff really needs to get more of a nod.

(At least in the US... Australia has a lot of CN release by a company named "Madman entertainment" I know they have Courage and some others... I think they also have PPG).

But this is a great step, I think. I still want to see Dexter or Johnny at some point on DVD... collections or seasons...

Jon · 09-30-2008, 11:23 AM

Yeah, would also like those CN Original Series released.

Another that would be great is the World Premier Toons/What-A-Cartoon Show stuff.
With great shorts like Captain Buzz Cheaply, O'Ratz, and Yucky Duck to name a few.

That's a crusade for another decade. ^_^ If WHV is too stingy to put any Cartoon Cartoons on DVD in non-compilations... But, after they see how well The Complete PPG Series sells, we just might get so lucky.

*Sage Ninja* · 09-30-2008, 01:21 PM

I don't think Cow and Chicken was any where near the insanities Ren and Stimpy where. Looking back now, I realise all the double meaning and f-ed up content Ren and Stimpy had.

I liked I Am Weasal better than Cow and Chicken. I loved the Power Puff Girls. Quickly every one, who was your favorite Power Puff Girl?

*gobo* · 09-30-2008, 01:42 PM

Blossom!

Girls... what ever... the real stars of the show were the villains, I think. Mojo Jojo, the monkey who talks like he's in a perpetual 1950's English dub of a Japanese movie... Fuzzy Lumpkins and his meat fetish... The Gangreen Gang... the Amoeba boys... hillairous satirical stuff.

And of course, one of my favorite episodes... the one where Him wants the girls to solve a myriad of riddles, or the Professor will pay.... which ends with the best closing line ever:

"And so... the day is...uh...yeah..."
