What A BIG Surprise! Clifford Rules!, October 9, 2005
This review is from: Clifford - Clifford's Big Halloween [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I loved the "Clifford the Big Red Dog" books, and I was thrilled to see that PBS Kids made it into an animated series. It features the voices of the late John Ritter (Three's Company, Problem Child 1-3, 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter), Kel Thompson (All That, Keenan & Kel, Good Burger), & Cree Summer (Codename: Kids Next Door, Rugrats, Atlantis: The Lost Empire). This series has made me smile, and I was very sad that they had to stop the series after John Ritter died in 2004. Now they made the series "Clifford's Puppy Days" but it's just not the same series as "Clifford". But either way, you and your children will love this lovable dog.
This video has four epidsodes with BIG, important lessons we can all live by.
"Boo": It's Halloween night on Birdwell Island, and Emily Elizabeth, Clifford, and everybody else is getting ready for this "spooktacular" night. Everybody watches the spooky movie, which has them all on the edge of their seats, except Jetta & Mac (who says their not scared of anything). During the festival, a big, white, scary ghost comes running into town. Oh, no! Who could it be?
"Clifford's Carnival": It's the Fall Carnival at Emily Elizabeth's school, and everyone is helping getting ready for this fun-filled event. Well, everyone except Jetta. All she's doing is giving orders to others. During the carnival, Jetta is supposed to wait for the tractor to come to give the people a hayride. But instead, she goes off to the Ferris Wheel- 15 times!- and the tractor ends up not showing up. How will there be a hayride without the tractor?
"Leaf of Absence": One autumn day, Clifford, Cleo, & T-bone are playing in a pile of leaves in the woods, when T-bone has to leave to meet up with his owner, Sheriff Lewis, and makes Clifford & Cleo promise to keep all of his leaves together until he comes back. But suddenly, a big wind sweeps all of the leaves away, all over Birdwell Island! Uh-oh! Can Clifford & Cleo keep T-bone's promise and get all of his leaves back?
"Come Back, Mac": One day, as Clifford & Emily are taking a walk, they notice Jetta looking around for something. She seems to have misplaced her favorite sweater. When Emily offers that she and Clifford could help, Jetta calls for Mac. But strangely enough, he's gone too! Can Clifford & his friends find Mac & Jetta's favorite sweater?
This stories are funny, sweet, and so entertaining for both kids and adults. Even if you're not a fan of children's series, you'll definitely love John Ritter as the lovable big, red dog.
