(More customer reviews)Here we have the Saturday Morning version of Bererstain Bears run in 1980s on CBS. I am sure many a 80s child can remember this show greeting us while eating our cereal back when Saturdays were must see tv to a child.
The other reviews have been harsh and that's only because they expected this to be the PBS version airing in this decade. The only thing I can agree with somewhat is this dvd and the other Sony Wonder versions should clearly list on the front as this being " The Berenstain Bears 1980s edition. " In that way it can be clear to everybody. The only way you can tell this is the 80s version is by looking on the back credits and it states 1986 copyright. Now I don't know if it's deliberate on Sony's part to entice new Bererstain Bears fans to buy these too but I think there are a great many Bererstain Bears fans for the 80s version who would buy this.
Well in my case I actually have been waiting for the 1986 version to make it on dvd, the voices are great unlike some other review said here, any 80s animation lover will recognize these voices being in other 80s cartoons as well. This version was animated by Southern Star Operations which might not be all too familiar to some but they were a subsidiary of Hanna Barbara based in Australia and they also animated The Teen Wolf cartoon and CBS Storybreak, two other greats from the 1980s.
Now onto the content, you get 7 segments totaling 84 minutes. There use to be two segments making up one whole show when it first aired so in this case you are getting like 3 whole shows and a half for a decent price. The shows have opening and end credits intact just like they use to air. I hadn't seen this show since it first aired and I wondered if it still would be fun to watch and I have to say it still holds up well and I can say children of today can appreciate it too, maybe if they're too hooked on the new version they may not like it as kids are fussy like that but if you're a kid who grew up in 1980s this might just be the version you'd rather your children watch today as it has all the lessons and fun intact to enjoy.
This can be a fun treat to watch at Halloween time and really it can viewed any time of year. The shows which are on this dvd are as follows:
1. The Bat cave
2. The Spookiest Pumpkin
3. The Trojan Pumpkin
4. The Missing Pumpkin
5. The Wicked Weasel Spell
6.Bust a Ghost
7.The Spooky Old Mansion
If you like this cartoon you might also consider buying the Raggedy Ann and Andy 1980s version dvds as well, that show holds up very well. Keep the 80s rocking, buy 80s!
