5.0 out of 5 stars Best Strawberry Shortcake DVD to date, July 15, 2004

This review is from: Strawberry Shortcake - Best Pets Yet (DVD)

I was "berry" lucky to be able to see an advance screening of this DVD at the second Strawberry Shortcake Convention in Cleveland. It was an unfinished copy, missing a lot of the sound effects that will be present in the final copy. However, it gave us a look at the new title sequence, as well as a taste of the new format for these DVDs. They are now going to be divided into two 22-minute episodes, instead of one longer one.

This is, in my opinion, the best of all the Strawberry Shortcake DVDs to date. The stories are cute and entertaining, and the shorter episode format keeps the attention span a little better. The first episode, while not entierly consistent with the first four DVDs, explains how Strawberry gets Pupcake. The second is a story very obviously inspired by the 1980s Pets On Parade Strawberry Shortcake cartoon. (In fact, the same person from American Greetings worked on both stories, another tidbit learned at the Convention.) This one is great not only because it features the cartoon debuts of all the pets belonging to Strawberry's friends (including Apple Ducklin' and Shoofly Frog, who have yet to appear in toy form) but it introduces a brand new character, Peppermint Fizz, and her pet lizard Cola Chameleon.

In the context in which I saw this cartoon, I was able to get the reactions of both intended audiences - children and collectors. The children loved it; they sang along with the theme song and their eyes stayed firmly fixed on the screen. As for the collectors, it's quite fun to hear gasps of joy from grown people when their favourite pet appears onscreen for the first time. ;-)

If Strawberry Shortcake appeals to you or your children, this DVD will definitely NOT disappoint.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good DVD, September 18, 2005

Kiersten's Grandma (Sheboygan, WI United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Strawberry Shortcake - Best Pets Yet (DVD)

This is the second SS DVD our granddaughter has.She has been picking this one to watch when she is at our house.She seems to find Pupcake's howling hilarious and always laughs at that part of the show.As with the other SS DVD she has,the dialogue is somewhat sugary sweet and can be annoying to an adult at times,but is bearable.We'll probably get her a few more SS DVD's for Christmas,since she does enjoy watching them.

4.0 out of 5 stars BERRY SPECIAL PETS!!!, April 6, 2005

This review is from: Strawberry Shortcake - Best Pets Yet (DVD)

I found this DVD to be so cute, just like the other ones. It was great meeting all the different pets in strawberryland! My only "pet peeve" is that Blueberry Muffin and her pet mouse Cheesecake were not in the episode at all!They are one of my favorite character duos. That was the only real let down, other than that I would have given it 5 stars. All the pets rule!

P.S- Custards whiny, selfish, spoiled attitude kind of got on my nerves in the first episode.
