This item is set to release 10/18/2005. But also scheduled to release in October/November, 2005 are Volumes 2, 3, and 4. What isn't clear so far, is that the Holiday Spectacular IS Volumes 2, 3, and 4 in one package, according to the distributor's website: Starlight Home Entertainment. So save your money and just buy this one 3 disk set. You get 18 15-minute episodes, plus three 30-minute Holiday-themed episodes (Halloween, Christmas, New Years) for a total of 6 hours of viewing.

Amazon has posted the contents of the 3 individual DVDs that comprise this set, but they haven't duplicated that information here so I will. This set will contain the following episodes:
"The Zillion Dollar Combo", "Good Neighbor", "The Wild Goat", "Big Apple", "Ready or Not", "Kum Ba Ya", "Officer Bob", "The Runaway", "Lemonade Stand", "Bully Up A Tree", "Doghouse Dreamhouse", "Jeep In The Deep", "A Diller A Dollar", "Boy In Trouble", "Who, Me?", "Who's George?", "Rags and Buttons" and "The Dog Show", as well as the 3 aforementioned holiday specials: "Halloween Who-Dun-It", "Christmas Lost and Found", and "New Year Promise".

Quite a lot of episodes for the money, definitely a good deal.

i remember getting up t 6 a.m. on a sunday morning and watching at least two fifteen minute episodes of this classic childrens show. great dvd package.

I never missed this as a child. When I found it on DVD I was so excited. Got it for my God children. Very good morals that never get outdated. The anamation is still cool today. They are digitally remastered and much beter than I remember on TV Great for children to learn right from wrong and it doesn't preach any certain religion even though the Lutheran Church produced them. Lessons on being kind to one another, telling the truth, Minding your parents, Not stealing. What American children need before so much super heros and violent cartoons.

Considering that you can get volumes 1 - 6 for about the same price then I'd say that this is most definitely NOT the collection to get. This set only includes volumes 2,3 and 4 which significantly include NO HOLIDAY episodes! Save your money and get the volume 1 - 6 pack for about two dollars more.

I have several Davey & Goliath VHS tapes but I was thrilled to find that Amazon carried the DVD's. I have been looking for this beloved series for many years. I am a 62 year old grandma who watched Davey & Goliath as a child. I still love it, and now can share it with my own sweet grandchildren. Thanks Amazon!

Very fast delivery. I order this for my grandson. When he gets older he'll have something good to watch + learn alot from this dvd.

Although wonderful, don't buy it on Amazon! I found all FOUR volumes at the Dollar Tree for..., well $1 each! $4! For the exact same product. I bought two sets, one for my family and one for my brother, whom I used to watch D&G with on Sunday mornings in the 60's. He loves them as well, great childhood memories!!
