5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of fun!, March 24, 2008

By	A. Waligora - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My 4 year old daughter loves this DVD! The stories are short and simple, the "monsters" are silly, and with 13 episodes, this gets us through a long car trip! I'd highly recommend this!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Scooby Doobie Puppy, March 24, 2008

By	Jerry McDaniel - See all my reviews

This version of Scooby and the gang is a series i watched on Saturday morning TV and i liked it. Shaggy would often serve as the narrator at the start of each episode, usually ending his monologue inserting the name of the series. For example: "...things aren't usually what they seem to me and a pup named Scooby-Doo..." and then that episode's story would begin. On hand for the show were Don Messick and Casey Kasem as the voices of Scooby and Shaggy respectively. I always got a kick out the running gag's on the show where Daphne would almost always call out for her butler in a time of crisis and sure enough, her butler would appear out of nowhere. Velma had few lines on the series...usually saying only her catchphrase of "jinkies". Her eye glasses were exaggerated. Fred was written more of a know it all who didn't really know it all...usually blaming high school bully Red Herring as the criminal in each mystery. The facial expressions were more along the lines of Tex Avery and Bob Clampette where one would see bulging eyes and tongues gyrating around and outrageous screams. The series ran on ABC-TV from 1988-1991 and re-ran on ABC mornings until around 1992/1993. It didn't have a long re-run life on the network. This DVD has a better packaging...when i opened the DVD i was happy to see the two DVD's on a what i call a flip-flapper. You don't have to pull a DVD out to get to another one, which is often the case in many DVD sets where DVD's over-lap one another. These DVD's are on these flappers much like in the THUNDERCATS collections. If you have those collections you'll know what i'm talking about. Anyway, each episode is crammed with visual gags and comedy...and it is also the last Scooby series to air on one of the big three networks. After this version left the airwaves in 1992/1993 there wouldn't be another new Scooby program in first-run production until 2002's WHAT's NEW, SCOOBY-DOO and that series was on the WB network, not one of the big three: ABC, CBS, NBC.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good but not great., May 29, 2008

By	Kevin R. Stacey - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I loved this series of Scooby-Doo when I was a kid and so now that my daughter has an obsession with Scooby-Doo I was happy to pick up the "Pup" series, season 1 for her. I'm a little disappointed however. There are some significant areas of the DVD transfer that left the animation sketchy. It should be much much clearer than it is. This isn't an issue with my TV or DVD player. Some parts of the show just seem to look like they've been ripped from an AVI. If it wasn't for the low quality DVD transfer I'd have given this a 5 star rating; as it stands now though, it's a 4 star.
