Product Description
Like Big Wheels, superballs and bell bottoms, "Davey and Goliath," the stop-motion, three-dimensional animated television program about a boy and his dog, was a much-cherished part of life for many children growing up in the '60s and '70s. Millions of parents and children embraced the lovable duo, their family and friends in warm and entertaining adventures every week from 1962 to 1977. Conceived by "Gumby" creator Art Clokey, "Davey and Goliath" provided a welcome alternative to violent children's programs. Produced by the Lutheran Church in America, the series featured moral themes, earning high praise from TV professionals, religious leaders and viewers alike. Includes four 14-minute episodes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Timeless Classic: Davey & Goliath!, August 6, 2000

By	DJC (Wilton, CT) - See all my reviews

I watched Davey & Goliath every Sunday morning as a boy. Now that I have kids of my own, I'm glad to see these timeless videos are still available -- I'm working on building up the entire collection.

My son loves Telebubbies, FisherPrice Little People, and Thomas the Tank Engine -- we are glad to add Davey & Goliath to this list. Nothing is blowing up, no character is yelling at another character, and there is a lesson to be learned in each episode. A rare find in today's video choices. Five stars for Davey & Goliath's "The Waterfall"!
