- I Smurf the Smurfs!: memories of the original Smurfs era and the lasting impact they've made
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
As plans to produce a big-screen version of artist Peyo's Smurfs continue to develop in Hollywood, there's no time like the present to revisit the little blue folks' TV adventures in America, which aired from 1981 to 1990. Twenty episodes from their debut season are featured on this two-disc set, which includes such stories as "Sideshow Smurfs" (a carnival owner kidnaps Smurfette and Clumsy for his attractions), "The Fountain of Smurf" (a fountain of youth turns Papa Smurf into an infant) and "Paradise Smurfed" (Lazy dreams of a work-free Smurf Village). Of course, most episodes hinge around evil wizard Gargamel (voiced by the legendary Paul Winchell), whose attempts to capture the Smurfs for his nefarious purposes are met with constant failure. Simple lessons, mostly concerned with sharing and collaboration, are also part of the framework, though they rare take a preachy tone. Modern young viewers may find the animation (which features lots of re-used footage) too bland for their tastes, though the Smurfs' inherently offbeat charm will undoubtedly win over their share of new audiences. The extras in Season One, Volume 2 include an interview with veteran voice artist Lucille Bliss, who provided Smurfette's memorable tones, as well as a hit-and-miss featurette called "I Smurf the Smurfs." The elements that cover the Smurfs' history are the most intriguing, but comments by marginal celebrities like Debbie Allen and Candace Cameron Bure are grating and time-consuming. -- Paul Gaita

The diminutive blue beings known as the Smurfs are finally back on a brand new 2-disc set with 20 classic cartoons of the second half of the first season restored and rejuvenated for fans of all ages.
With the likes of Papa, Brainy, Hefty, Grouchy, Lazy, Handy, Greedy, Dreamy, and Smurfette, there's never a dull moment in their tiny Smurf village hidden deep within the forest. Of course, there are many horrific dangers and vile creatures beyond the forest. Especially that wicked warlock Gargamel and his conniving cat Azrael who desperately try to catch those Smurfs at any and every way possible. Still, no matter what the danger, the Smurfs come out on top if they all put their minds together as one.
Along with these new-to-DVD adventures, there's a super-cool special feature called "I Smurf the Smurfs" where celebrities and people who worked on the show, like writers and voices from the show, discuss the origin of the hit series and how it became a smurfy sensation for years to come.
You can bet that these little creatures still have their magic touch as they have touched the hearts of millions worldwide. Hopefully, the rest of the hit series will be smurfing to DVD real smurf - er, I mean, soon ! (I really gotta stop talking like that.)

Opposite of Smurfy Blue?
This is that episode where a purple fly bites one smurf and turns him angry and makes him repeat "Guhnap!" After awhile, the whole village is infected instead of Papa Smurf. Read more
