Yeah, no kidding!! Toon Zone's reviews (as well as TV Shows On DVD's at times) have to be taken with a *dose* of salt (not just a grain). TZ tends to have 'nasty' reviews on alot of the show/movie DVDs they review.

Yeah. There only NOW praising all of these older series (with obviously still a few exceptions) only because of the criticism they received for what they did'nt cover, their bias towards WB and anime, and for bashing arguably two of the most definitive Disney cartoons ever, shows that not even their favourate sex doll Kim Possible can duplicate.

Not that there all bad, as I've said before, there's a lot about them I like, but just as much I hate. Their coverage of the bootleg Spiral Zone DVD collection (a first for them, as they had only reviewed licensed DVDs) was a step in the right direction and the first time they've remembered there animation fans, not corporate sponsors.

We'll see where they go, but right now they still need to learn how to approach a DVD review negativly in a professional way, which they seemingly can manage with anything they actually like.

Right, they have some decent reviews. But, as you say, still have a ways to go with how they do reviewing in-general.

As for the Spiral Zone review, I just figured they did it as there was some legality to it (with a person that worked on the series helping out with the DVD). But whatever the case, would be nice to have the series -actually- put out on DVD (like all the other shows that have been getting released in recent times).

Personally, I'm just more upset with Entertainment rights not releasing more Fat Albert DVD sets, myself. Or even having the ones they do have released better. I'm still looking for both "Season" sets with the bonus music CDs.

But I will say, Mozel Tov to the fans of this particular series. I was tempted years back to get a discount Filmation Ghostbusters VHS, but I wouldn't spend anything trying to get this one.
