I don't understand why the stories are never detailed on the product description... here they are:

FOLLOW THE FEATHER: Join Tyrone and the Adventurer's Club on a feather-following expedition to find the one and only Flying Polka-Dotted Pony, all set to the sounds of Psychedelic Rock !

DRAGON EXPRESS: Sway to a Strauss waltz as the Dragon Express makes its mail deliveries in Norway. Will Dragon rider Austin learn to be a fancy flier like Pablo and his dragon Maverick ?

THE FUNNYMEN BOOGEYMAN: Boo-ya! Pablo and Uniqua are the Boo Crew, and they're on the hunt for spooky creatures. But Boogeyman Austin isn't spooky - he's hilarious!

FLOWER POWER: When Uniqua pokes her finger on a thorn, she becomes Garden City's newest superhero, Flower Girl, dedicated to keeping things rosy and defeating Gloom Meister (Austin)

Well, the me and my daughter only the Dragon Express is really a nice story on this new release. We prefer the Robot Repairman DVD, with only 3 stories but much more nicest than this one !

Cheers

My sons - 3.5 and 23 months - love this new DVD. My older one's new favorite episode is Flower Power and my younger boy's new favorite is Funnyman Boogeyman, which he repeats with glee. My spouse and I also love all four of these episodes as we do the many others in our DVD collection. Backyardigans has so much to offer with catchy songs in different genres each episode, dancing that keeps all of us moving, and clever stories. The only thing that doesn't work for this video is that Tyrone's voice in Follow the Feather is off. Either the actor who portrays him was ill in a way that significantly affected his voice, or the producers substituted another actor who tried unsuccessfully to duplicate Tyrone's voice. I hope the original actor has not left the series for some reason. His voice is wonderful and clearly too hard to duplicate.

Flower Power is pretty impressive as regards a 30 minute story: characters introduced, super powers obtained, quick training session, powers used for good, enter supervillian, villian thwarted, superhero captured, escape, showdown, and obligatory end-of-story conversion to good (with costume change) by supervillian. Also, I must say, Austin's greek dance moves as the Gloommeister are something to behold.

She watched this dvd until she fell asleep . . . 8 hours later.

What a joy.

The shows are fine, what isn't OK is the media errors on the disks. The copy protection makes it unable to be played on a PC and causes errors in playback on my DVD player. Its a pitty since the episodes seem cute.

We always look forward to a new Backyardigans video and this one didn't disappoint. The story lines are good, the songs are catchy and each episode is just the right length. My son especially enjoyed this DVD and loves to go around imitating Austin's evil laugh.

Typical Backyardigan DVD, contains 4 shows. Makes a great addition to the collection my daughter has started. The short run time of each show is perfect for short sessions or running the entire DVD to keep her entertained during travel.

This is a great and wonderful New backyardigans DVD. The Stories are very wonderful and the music was indeed great as well! Very entertaining and lots of great and wonderful Fun!

Like most of the Backyardigans dvds, this one does not disappoint. It has some very funny episodes that keep the kids entertained during long car rides.
