4.0 out of 5 stars Good set overall, but I do have a few complaints, June 7, 2009

This review is from: The Adventures of David the Gnome (3 Disc Box Set)-Nick Jr (DVD)

There are 2 complaints I have with this set. One, the episode titles are not the same titles as what were originally aired on Nickelodeon, however they are the same episodes, just different titles for some reason. The other complaint I have is that the episodes only come in the movie format. Basically this means that the episodes play back to back without the show's introduction. When you hit play movie, it does show an into on the first episode of each disc with the original song, however the intro is NOT the same as it was on Nickelodeon, which bothers me a bit. You can watch the episodes individually as well, but when you select that option, no intro is shown at all.

However, the set does contain all the episodes I love and remember. The set does have good picture and sound, and my few complaints I have with the set are not enough to suggest not buying it.

Reminds me of eating spagettios in front of the tv when I wasn't a crusty ol' 25 year old - I bought this for my future kids, but I'll admit I enjoy it too.

Actually, this series contains researched information about nature, and provides a look at a simpler life most children don't get to see very often. If you're a little fed up with 7 year olds carrying cell phones and ipods, get them to watch this.

The dvd set is well packaged and sturdy.

This was a very well packaged and produced DVD set that includes all the episodes we may remember watching on Nickelodeon way back in the day. I did not play with the language features, but the menus are easy, the sound and picture are crisp, and the packaging remarkably tough. Recommend it for anybody who is looking to buy a copy of David the Gnome.
