SlugTerra: Slugs Unleashed

Adorable Slugs!
Ever since we first heard of Slugterra my whole family has been hooked. Yes I admit I watch it with them. First I want to say this is not like the Japanese-animation shows, which I don't usually like. The show is colorful, fun and the only weapons really used is their Slug Blaster which shoots slugs. My boys (5 and 6) think it is so silly to see the slugs flying through the air and are excited to see which power will be unleashed. This DVD contains five episodes with almost two hours of Slugterra fun and while these are episodes that have been on television before, my boys didn't mind watching them again. It is nice to have the DVD to watch them anytime. I recommend this for any child looking for a new show to watch! If your worried too if they'll like it, check your local listings on television for when Slugterra is on!

I received this DVD to review in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.

Absolutely perfect for 6 year old boys.
Short and sweet. My 6 year old son LOVES this. It is pretty much a rip-off from another popular kids show, but my son could care less- and it's done very well. The slugs are pretty funny, he loves them. He actually wants to catch real slugs to make characters out of them- I am really hoping that does not happen. He has watched this over and over and over again- it's cute, harmless, and funny. Your child will be happy I can assure you!

great series 4 1/2 stars
This is a great series that kept the whole family entertained, I only wish that the discs were longer and contained more shows. But this is still a great show and one of my 9 and 6 year old sons favorites.

Fat Albert And The Cosby Kids: The Complete Series

THANKS A LOT SHOUT FACTORY FOR THE COMPLETE SERIES
At last we can own the complete series, which includes the best original 36 1972-75 Episodes, all 24 1979-81 episodes and all 50 1984 episodes.

IGNORE THE OTHER REVIEW WHO ADMITS AT COMPARING MY REVIEW: He Is Jelous & Goes By Repeated Synication Dates, Not Just Original Premiere Dates, Because they for a fact didn't premiere new episodes of Fat Albert Every Year Between 1972-1989, Only A Few years out of them all featured New Episodes, Including 1972/1973/1975/1979/1980/1981/1984.

Unfortunately in past DVD Releases, only episode 1-24 In Two Volumes have been released seperately in the original fan favourite series, which are still easy to buy now at cheap overstock prices from third party sellers, MEANING I Want The whole series anyway - But for anyone who only wants the original 36 episodes, there is a catch out of you having to buy the whole series, specially for the last 12 episodes of the original series which never quite made it to Region 1 DVD Separately,...

Great Show Extremely Poor DVD Set
Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids is perhaps one of the very best Saturday Morning Cartoons to ever grace the TV screen. The shows never failed to deliver comedy and an important lesson with every episode. The show has a well earned spot in the hearts and minds of the kids, like myself, who were fortunate enough to see these shows when they first aired. How many of us in the 70s were constantly using the 'no class' lines from this show?

I eagerly purchased this set after waiting for over a year since the first announcement that this was coming to DVD. I was so looking forward to reliving these great shows at long last. I haven't seen most of these episodes since they went off the air over 30 years ago. My excitement turned to disgust as I watched the first 8 discs in this set.

First, the 1972-76 episodes have six episodes that use the 1984 The Adventures of Fat Albert opening titles and ending credits. However, these six episodes do appear to be unedited and complete...

Who'd a Thunk? A Positive Overweight and African-American Role Model!
Dr. Bill Cosby is many things - an incisive comedian, a successful sitcom star, a civil rights advocate, and occasionally, in my opinion, a sanctimonious egotist. Nevertheless, we should be thankful for Dr. Cosby for his unconventional, trailblazing '70s-'80s cartoon series "Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids", hereafter "Fat Albert". Not only did "Fat Albert" manage to be as entertaining and interesting as the usual animation stew being served up at the time, but it transcended those popcorn cartoons by covering, illustrating, and commenting upon important, relevant, even controversial topics (including racism, sexism, sibling rivalry, being different, drug use, worshipping false human idols, schoolwork, vandalism, and softcore pornography). Produced by Filmation, known for its penchant for moralistic if somewhat static cartoons, "Fat Albert" still towers over most, if not all, TV cartoon series.

In each episode, we follow the antics and adventures of several...
