The title of the product gives the impression that the contents will be the complete series of Underdog. Afterall, is that not what the collector would want? However, all in all, it is about 11 episodes, which is sadly disappointing.

There is no continuity between the episodes, no obvious reason for the grouping, nothing but a quick assembly and package job in hopes of suckering an old fan into buying just a piece of what he really wants.

As has been stated here, there are none of the "cliffhanger" episodes, which is both a plus and a minus. The little cartoons were most enjoyable, and the handful we are given is a sad sampling and a sorry excuse. However, on the other hand, it is nice to be able to watch an entire episode of Underdog without being interrupted.

But again, beware of this product, as it is nothing more than a tease. I suggest not buying it now, but rather waiting until the whole series is released on DVD, to save having to pay for the same thing twice.

Underdog was one of my favorites when I was five years old, and watching the DVD reissues brought back wonderful memories. I ordered these for my son who is five years old as a means of obtaining quality programming in the English language. We are living in Germany where Underdog is relatively unknown. My son was fascinated by the episodes, watching them with wonderful childlike awe, not bored at all. And I enjoyed the occasional references to the adult world (Lucitanic, Hopeless Diamond, etc.). I'm glad I ordered this set.
Before ordering I checked the Amazon customer ratings of the individual DVDs. I, too, think it's a shame that the cliffhanger episodes were spliced together. This takes away some of the series' charm, for those familiar with the original format. But there's so much charm going around in this that it almost doesn't matter. Therefore I chose to give five stars. If another packaged set comes out next year I'll probably order it, as well.

I think the people that re-released the Underdog cartoons should be commended for restoring the cartoons to their original brilliance... Best of all it is all UNDERDOG! I was never into the in between stuff when these were run on TV. I think that the sound and picture were better then the prints used for TV.. This gives our floppy ear hero the respect that he deserved.. I hope that Joe harris decides to release all the cartoons on DVD format. I bought the 3 VHS tapes, and a just ordered the DVD... GREAT WORK on the final prints... I liked the new openings. Can't wait to see the interview with Joe Harris!

WOW!
Underdog is one of those shows that doesn't get nearly the attention it deserves. It's been decades since I've seen or heard anything about the show. As such, I was surprised at all the little gems hidden in these classic shows. I loved seeing things like Simon Barsinister "The meanest man in the world", creating machines to help him "rule the world". Do you remember some of them? Like his machine designed to shrink everyone in the world to 6 inches tall? "With my new shinking gun, I'll be the tallest man in the world!"
It was great re-living those great memories again.

I grew up watching Underdog and I was very happy to find a set which had all of the episodes. I have shared these with my boys and they love 'em.
