I loved these cartoons as a child and I still like them. However, this compilation is an abomination. The intro to each cartoon has been removed. The DVD just goes from one cartoon to the next without any intro or title card. Originally there was the theme song opening, followed by a short title board for each cartoon. Well, all we have here is the theme song played once at the beginning of the DVD, and closing credits at the very end. Everything else, including all the title cards, has been stripped away. It's bad enough we can't get these episodes as part of a complete Underdog package, but now we can't even get the complete Go-Go Gophers on their own DVD. The cartoons themselves look and sound good, but 75% of the charm of these has been edited out. Save your money and don't buy this garbage. Hopefully the Tennessee Tuxedo package is better, but I doubt it.

It's true that The Best of Go-go Gophers is not the
complete series. I don't know why. I"ll be in the Army pretty soon, and Regulation 35706 expressly states "Every cartoon coming on DVD should be complete."

A collection of really funny and socially engaging cartoons. The choice of heroes in this series is a win for me! ;) All in all, some adults might not have as much fun as others, but kids will like this (and big kids, too!). yes, it has stereotypes, but it pokes fun at both sides, mostly the bad guys taking it the hardest. Love the Kit Carson/ Teddy Roosevelt/ John Wayne parodies. A funny take on something that wasn't so funny for a lot people--being forced onto a reservation. Here's one for the Under Dog!

Grab a bowl of cereal and remember a time when things were a lot simpler, and Saturdays lasted forever. Would have loved them to release this as it originally aired, but I guess we'll have to settle for this release, as I don't think we'll see another. Can't understand why the people who put together these DVDs feel they have to change or omit parts of the program.

This DVD collection is of some of my favorite cartoons from my childhood. I really never thought I would find such a collection, since when I used to watch them they were just fill-in shorts on the UNDERDOG show.

These cartoons are just the way I remember them... perfect. Upon seeing these again I was laughing just as I did as a kid growning up. These are a must have for anyone collecting the older cartoons.

The Best of Go-Go Gophers
This is a cartoon classic favorite from the old
underdog cartoons. Very enjoyable and very funny.

What a great way to remember your childhood Saturday mornings and be able to share with your children.

The cartoon is just like I remembered. Funny and so politically incorrect.

"Go Go Gophers" is a classic series. I've only seen one episode ("Moon Zoom").

I'll get this for Mom, because she likes it.

And also look out for an upcoming "Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales" DVD.
