 Care Bears!!!! September 17, 2006

Care Bears was on the television when I was a little girl. *sigh* Such fond memories! Just to let you know this is made by DIC. They are know to have bad production shows and movies. The color and quality of the DVD isn't that good. The voices are just weird! It doesn't sound "cartoony" if you ask me. Still good none the less.
 Great Value for Care Bears Watchers October 29, 2005
These original episodes from the TV series are pretty much the same as I remembered them (I was a teen when they came out): juvenile, predictable, and badly animated (think Thundercats - The Old Man and the Lighthouse on this disc is actually even more poorly animated than the others). I bought this disc and The Last Laugh for my son when he was about 3 and he loved it. He would watch them over and over glued to the television, so they were a perfect baby sitter when necessary. His favorite episode on this disc was the Cloud Worm. Compared with the 3-episode discs that his grandma bought him (Tenderheart Tales & Land of Enchantment), the 7-episode discs are definitely a better value and overlap significantly (only one episode was different on the 3-episode DVDs). Compared with the original Care Bears movie, the animation is a little choppy. However, these original TV episodes were much better and got watched a lot more (the movie is pretty scary).
 Old animation, terrible voice cast, but still cute October 23, 2005

I was quite disappointed with this video. I didn't like the way it was produced. The "kids" in all episodes had weird grown-up voices, and a few of the Care Bears sounded very strange and annoying (like Bedtime Bear, Grumpy Bear, even Champ Bear. And oh, let's not forget Gentle Heart Lamb's shee-ee-ee-py voice!). Also, most scenes could have been improved with more and better background music.
We bought this video along with the 3 others from the Animation Station series, which are: "The Last Laugh," "Care Bears To The Rescue," and "Daydreams." Between the 4 of them, there is a total of 22 episodes. These episodes are also featured in the 3-episode DVDs produced by Sterling:
(In random order)
1. Forever Friends
2. Celebration
3. Dreamland
4. Land of Enchantment
5. Fun in the Sun
6. Starry Skies
7. Tenderheart Tales
DIC also came up with a DVD 3-pack which covers 20 of these episodes.
Instead of spending extra money on all 7 DVDs or the 3-pack set, we decided to get the VHS version...it was a lot cheaper (got all 4 videos brand new on ebay for only $12 plus shipping), and we still get to watch all 22 episodes produced by DIC/Sterling/UAV. The video quality seems okay...it's certainly sufficient for occasional viewings by a 4-year-old. My daughter doesn't seem to mind the awful voices (although she'd sometimes comment on how "weird" someone sounds).
As one would expect, yes, there are moral lessons on caring, sharing, being nice, etc... and the bad guys are tolerable enough... Overall, this is still a cute 80's cartoon series for all ages.
The voices are strange March 8, 2005

I was a fan of the care bears "way back when" so it was interesting for me to watch this video with my 7 year old. He didn't seem very interested and I can understand why. The voices of the characters don't sound like I remember and in the case of a couple of the bears, slightly scary. I think this would be more for the pre-school set than school age children.
entertaining and nostalgic May 4, 2004

Watching this really takes me back! The origional theme song! There is no beastly, noheart, or shrieky here, but the the bears are there.
Drab city is one of my favorites.
