Mixed blessing...,
By A Customer
This review is from: "Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin, Vol. 1: The Journey Begins" (DVD)
While I am overjoyed at finding this series released at last on DVD and am generally happy with it, I have to say that the digital treatment it received was not all that it could have been.The video and audio quality is spotty... only one or two episodes are consistently clean (though not flawless... the footage skips and shows signs of damage to the master tape occasionally). Most of the episodes have weak background music tracks, though the voice track was obviously enhanced. The colours are unsatisfyingly dingy, dull and grainy for the most part; it's like they took original VHS tapes rather than true masters and converted them to digital (you can even see some shifting of the display onscreen at times, as happens with older tape recordings). You would think that, given the chance to release such a classic series on DVD, that they would have given a little more attention to the quality. Overall it's pretty good... still more watchable than many degraded home recordings. For children, it's a perfectly good opportunity to see this wonderfully imagined and realised world. For the collector (or those trying to reclaim their childhood) the quality issues will likely come as a bit of a disappointment. However, the fact that the series is seemingly being released intact and unedited, and in the original episode order is a great plus! That's more than I can say for some classic rereleases with "best of" compilations with episodes all out of order. So if you're a real enthusiast or would love to introduce a child to this wonderful story, do yourselves a favour and give at least the first DVD a try! Can't go wrong with the price that's for sure.

A Great 80's cartoon rereleased!,
By J. Dayton - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: "Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin, Vol. 1: The Journey Begins" (DVD)
This DVD has the first 5 episodes of Teddy Ruxpin, a popular cartoon series from the 80's! I loved this when I was a kid, and have some episodes recorded that I've watched again and again. It's great to see they're releasing the full series on DVD.
This cartoon was unique in that all 65 episodes followed a developing plot, rather than each episode having a seperate story. This was very uncommon for cartoons in the 80's, and allowed for a much more interesting storyline and character development. Kids will love it, and it's well written enough for even adults to be entertained by it. Teddy is also a very moral hero, and a great example for your kids to follow. And of course, any one who had a toy Teddy or watched this show when they were young will be filled with nostalgia to see it again. The storyline is just amazing, the characters are fun and memorable, the songs are cute, and the DVDs are at a great price! Each disc has 5 episodes, and they're releasing discs 2 at a time. Discs 3 and 4 are planned to come out later this year. You'll never regret buying this once you watch it! 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:

Teddy Ruxpin - Come dream with me tonight!,
By WannaBeABetty - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: "Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin, Vol. 1: The Journey Begins" (DVD)
There can't be a better storyteller than Teddy Ruxpin. As I child I was enthralled with this animated story and would impatiently play with my toy Teddy Ruxpin as I waited for Saturday morning to come again so I could see another episode of the TV series. This show has a clear progression of plot development that starts right from episode one. So many cartoons are just one-shots, an individual small plot for each episode. Teddy Ruxpin was an epic adventure that caught you up and carried you along for a fantastic adventure! Along the way, kids learn important morals, values, and a lot about their own world. This is a fantastic cartoon to share with children of any age. And what a great price! Well worth it!!

Childhood Favorite!,
By C. Thomas "Courts" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: "Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin, Vol. 1: The Journey Begins" (DVD)
Teddy Ruxpin was one of my favorite shows as a child. I had all of the episodes taped on VHS casettes which have just about given out. I am so glad that they're being released on DVD so that I can share them with my own children.
