I am so excited about them finally releasing this wonderful series on DVD. This Series shows Beautiful scenes of Horses and Race Tracks. It also stars two Wonderful actors. Richard Ian Cox (Inuyasha) and Mickey Rooney (The Black Stallion Movie). It will be nice to finally have the Series on a clear screen. I am counting down the days till the 5th!!!This is a must have for any one who LOVES Horses...^_^

5.0 out of 5 stars A Family Classic Finally Hits DVD, August 11, 2007

This review is from: The Adventures of The Black Stallion: The Complete First Season (DVD)

I was so glad to find out this series has finally been released on DVD (though disappointed the company refused to allowed TVShowsOnDVD to announce it or even list the released on their site). This is a great show I grew up watching on the Family Channel and I can still remember so many episodes from it. A great classic for all ages, which is a rarity in this age of nothing but toilet humor and stupid pranks.

Despite the lack of features, on the whole this is a great release. The audio and visual are great. It has closed captions, though not as a language track so you'll have to activate them with your TV instead. The embossed cover is really nice. My only disappointment is that the chapter stops are very meager. You can only jump from episode to episode rather than scene to scene. You can't even skip the opening sequence. While it is a nice song, after 26 episodes it can get tiring.

Still, I highly recommend this release as well as the season two set that is out. I hope they will release season 3 to finish out the series, and maybe follow up with Rin Tin Tin K-9 Cop (which aired together with this show and I believe was made by the same company)

I watched this as a little kid and was very excited to see it had come out on DVD. I'm a big time horse lover and watched all 4 DVD over a span of two days :). If you are a horse lover this is a must have. I can't wait for seasons 2 and 3 to come out!!!! Anyone have any ideas on when that will be????
