All this DVD features shows from the DIC era of the Care Bears. The animation wasn't that great while the stories were decent.
Episodes include:
The Last Laugh, The Show Must Go On, Mayor for a Day, Soap Box Derby, The Girl Who Cried Wolf, Forest of Misfortune and Concrete Rain.
Note: Loyal Heart Dog is featured more in these episodes than the later episodes. In fact he doesn't even speak in the later ones.
Please note that some of these WERE released on video in a limited released. I think it was the same company that released some of the Muppet Babies long lost videos from 1984-1987. When Nelvana took over the series and released videos, everyone forgot about these.
I'm going to wait on the Nelvana episodes to come before buying this DVD.

When I bought this video I had no idea how great it would be. It has the original cartoons and I practically remembered every episode. It is over an hour of authentic care bear. If you are a care bear lover you will fall in love with this movie

This DVD was one that my young granddaughters liked real well. It kept them interested for a long time.

I was 14 when the Care Bears came out. These episodes from the original TV series are exactly how I remember them - trite, sentimental and badly animated (think Thundercats). I bought this DVD for my son, who was 3 at the time, and he was absolutely glued to them. This DVD and the Bedtime stories DVD are definitely the better buy when compared to the newer 3-episode DVDs (Tenderheart Tales & Land of Enchantment, and overlap significantly (only one different episode on the 3-episode DVDs).

This movie doesn't really portray the care bears in a way I think it should. The graphics are really bad, but the plot and morals are good. I still would prefer the 30 min. episodes over these short stories.

Although this movie is cute, the animation is not up to par with my memories of the carebears. In fact, it reminds me of the Japanese animation that has become so popular. The actual Care Bears movie kicks this DVD's butt(animation wise), however, the stories featured are cool and close to the stories I remember from the original show. My two year old little boy has become a Care Bears junkie like his mama, and he doesn't seem to notice the difference, so your kids probably won't either. Overall: decent film for an original care bears fan or a new one.

This movie was a big let down to me.

As a giant fan of the Carebears, I had bought the original 2 Carebears movies, as well as some of the VHS tapes that come with the stuffed animals not too long ago.

Seeing this dvd in the store, I was thrilled to find another Carebear movie and of course bought it right away, along with the Bedtime Story dvd.

They were both a horrible disappointment to me though, and if I could I would have taken them back and gotten my money back! It didnt match up at all to the original Carebears movies and show, and several of the voices were quite awful! Nothing at all compared to the originals!

Original Carebears fans will not like this dvd at all.

My advice.... do not waste your money on any of the 3 dvd's in this set!

I love the fact that the cartoons on this tape are the exact ones shown on television from the 1980's. I grew up with the Care Bears and am very excited about their return. Now I can relive my childhood all over again by having my daughter grow up with them too. My daughter, who is 15 months old, will actually sit down and watch this tape with me. She doesn't ever sit still for anything!
If you grew up with the Care Bears and are a huge fan of them, then I highly recommend buying this tape. You will not be disappointed.

I love the Care Bears BUT... I hate Animae!!! (I call it Japanimae.) The Care Bears and other Characters are talking but their voice doesn't look right or sound right. It says it was made in the USA but it sure doesn't look like it. My kids watched it once and have never asked to watch it again. They love to watch The Care Bears Movie.

YEAH!! Hallaluiah!! The Care Bears are back!! I've been waiting 15 years for this! Keep 'em coming!! YEAH!!!!!
