2.0 out of 5 stars
More expensive than the individual seasons, August 12, 2004
This review is from: Rocky & Bullwinkle & Friends: Seasons 1-2 (Amazon.com Exclusive) (DVD)
What's the point of this collection? Buying the two
seasons individually is cheaper, and there appears to
be nothing added.

Only for the Mathematically challenged, November 21, 2004
This review is from: Rocky & Bullwinkle & Friends: Seasons 1-2 (Amazon.com Exclusive) (DVD)
Someone at Amazon apparently has a sense of humor.....or is smoking crack. I can either buy series 1 & series 2 for 29.99 each, or I can buy them together for $67.97?.......or better yet, I can buy them together & get a second copy of series 2 for $97.96 with the better together option?

All the Pun You Can Handle, March 23, 2005
This review is from: Rocky & Bullwinkle & Friends: Seasons 1-2 (Amazon.com Exclusive) (DVD)
Lovers of puns, rejoice. In these two sets we have what is probably the best TV example of a great punny program in Rocky and Bullwinkle.
So far, the first two seasons have been released in complete sets. Season one was only 26 episodes long and is collected on four single sided discs. There are only two storylines, "Jet Fuel Formula" and "Box Top Robbery." Extras include rare commercials and promotions, including for the saving stamp club, a collage of Boris's disguises, and footage from a proposed segment of the show featuring a Bullwinkle puppet that didn't actually air.
Season two had 52 episodes. To keep costs down, the set is again four discs, this time double sided. This time, there are seven storylines for our heroes, including "Upsidasium," "Metal Munching Mice," "Rue Brittania," and "Wailing Whale." Extras include an interview with June Foray, who provided many of the voices, "Moosecalls," and some classic Cheerios commercials featuring our favorite moose.
Of course, along with Rocky and Bullwinkle's adventures, you get the other segments from the show. How can you forget Aesop and Son, Fractured Fairy Tales, Bullwinkle's Corner, Mr. Know-It-All, Dudley Do-Right, and Peabody's Improbably History?
Picture on these discs is sharp. Sound is mono but it doesn't need to be any better. Each set comes with a book that lists exactly what is in each episode, with one exception. They don't list the Bullwinkle's Corner or Mr. Know-It-All segments. Since those are some of my favorites, I find it annoying.
Looks like the price on this combo can fluctuate, so double check the single sets before you buy. Either way, if you have ever been a fan of Moose and Squirrel and friends (and enemies), be sure to get these sets.
