The Muppet Show. The Opening number

Advantages: interesting to see how the show developed, the pilot episode
Disadvantages: not the best series for a casual fan to buy, Muppet morsels can be annotying, no listing of episodes

...about my favourite TV show The Muppets again. Disney (unfortunately) have bought out my beloved fuzzy puppets and to make their money's worth they have started to release box sets of the Muppet seasons. My old video box set ;s quality was starting to deteriorate due to overuse so I thought I would treat myself to Season One of the Muppet Show on DVFD when I saw it in the Amazon sale or a fantastic £17.99. The box set contains four DVDs and a whopping ...
...the Muppet Show ran for 24 episodes and was first shown in 1976 and 1977. The Muppet Show was a take on the variety shows that used to be on TV such as Sunday Night at the Palladium.. It was made up of different songs and sketches performed by acts such as the Electric Mayhem Band, Miss Piggy and Fozzie Bear. These were held together by the capable flippers of Kermit the Frog. I am not usually one for going into detail about the packaging but there ...

Review of The Muppet Show - Series 1 (Box Set) (DVD)

Powerangers SPD Vol1-5 (Box Set ) DVD

Advantages: Better Value
Disadvantages: None

This is much better than previous ones. It offers a better value and my 4 year old enjoys it. It has very moderate action and is suitable for kids. My child enjoys it and would recommend this as a good buy. Different episodes totaly five. The special effects are outstanding and even a 36 year old like me was watching it with my son and was actually rivetted to the screen. I think at about £19.99 it is a good value 5 box set DVD, has excellent ...
...or smudge the discs. The characters are really funny and interesting and so is the plot of the story. What I do like about it is that there is hardly any swearing which is quite important considering it does have moderate violence. But that is expected from any in this genre and it is popular with kids! The Special effects are really excellent and would say it is worth a look. ...

Review of Mickey's House Of Villains (Animated) (DVD)

A trip back to another world

Advantages: Childhood memories, classic films
Disadvantages: Sequel not as good as the first

... Escape to Witch Mountain 'Escape to Witch Mountain' was made in 1975 (directed by John Hough) and is based upon a book (with the same name, written in 1968) by Alexander Key. Blond haired Tony (Ike Eisenmann) and Tia Malone (Kim Richards) are orphans, and tragically their foster parents have just died too (we don't really find out anything about that - think they were old). They end up at some sort of children's home, and go to a school where ...
...coming back. However, the escape to Witch Mountain is not easy with Bolt and Deranian hot on the children's heels. More of my thoughts… To say more would be to give away too much of the plot (and I fear some might criticise me already - but it was all relevant, I couldn't miss anything out!). This is however a typical Disney film from that era. There's drama and a bit of a car chase, there's naff special effects, and there's a happy ending ...

Review of Escape From Witch Mountain/Return To Witch Mountain (DVD)

It's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Advantages: Three special editions of 3 great family films
Disadvantages: Possible double film if you have bought one of the three before

...winning performance in the unforgetable Mary Poppins the magical nanny who comes into London on the wind and enriches the lives of two children, Julie Andrews'voice sparkles especially when she sings "feed the birds" Dick Van Dyke's accent may not be great but his superb singing and his endless energy during the brillant dance routines is infectious. Then to Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzan the little boy lost in the jungle and brought up by gorillas,is ...
...is a classic and the film manages to keep all ages interested.and entertained throughout. Finally Lilo & Stich one of the more recent Disney classics, the story of an alien & a little girl who find friendship and the bonds of family can survive anything even alien space authorities! Lilo is a great character who isn't the typical disney princess brand but has personality. The soundtrack features Elvis too so it's all good! There are loads of features ...
