Very Mixed Feelings on the Crusader Rabbit DVD, August 31, 2009
This review is from: CRUSADER RABBIT AND FRIENDS[ANIMATED] (DVD)
The Crusader Rabbit DVD is a cheap presentation of what it a very good and undeservedly obscure cartoon series. It has nearly all his first adventure. That's what I don't like about it. The cartoon was a serialized cartoon like Rocky & Bullwinkle and they left off the last chapter (I have an earlier copy of the show on a videotape from Rino, so I know what happens, but child and grownup alike will resent that cartoon missing the end).
Too bad, because despite the very primative animation, Crusader Rabbit vs the State of Texas (the adventure's full name) was funny, clever, and original. J.Ward (who later did the Bullwinkle cartoons)
worked on it, and it shows. If you like a mixture of cliffhangers, slapstick and satire, I reccomend the
Crusader Rabbit cartoons, and I hope more of them come out. Only next time, please don't forget to include the last chapter!-Charles Garofalo

Terribly Disappointing, June 20, 2009
This review is from: CRUSADER RABBIT AND FRIENDS[ANIMATED] (DVD)
Crusader Rabbit was the first cartoon produced specifically for TV. Its stories were serialized in short segments. This DVD has 14 segments of a story, but the story has at least 15 segments. In other words this disc has an incomplete story. I bought it for the sake of nostalgia but I expected, or at least hoped for, a complete Crusader Rabbit story.

Blast from the Past, January 27, 2011
This review is from: CRUSADER RABBIT AND FRIENDS[ANIMATED] (DVD)
From my earliest memories of TV, carved in the recesses of my young mind.
A clever saturday morning series that paved the way for many to follow (Rocky and Bullwinkle for example).
Disc contains a few episodes, but not the entire series. It's just enough to revive those memories.
