only getting to work and a film now that the show is in decline,
Disney has put out a KP flick while it's still the top show on
their channel. While made for TV and running little more than an
hour, "A Sitch in Time" may not be an epic, it is however a great
little treat for all the Kimmy cub fans out there.
The plot which involves time travel is surprisingly good. Alot of
backstory absent from even the earliest episodes of the show is
covered in the film, my favourite being Kim in braces trying out
for the cheer squad and then going on her first mission. There are
also some funny future scenes. The film kinda can be compared to
the old "Batman" movie, as it has taken the same path of teaming up
the shows major villains against Kim for the movie. It was also
good to see Shego finally take over as we always new she was always
the smartest aswell as toughest of all Kims foes.
The DVD is quite stunning. The film is presented in 1.78:1
anamorphic widescreen with Dolby Digital 5.1 sound! The picture is
amazingly crisp, with rich colors that no mere TV transmission
could ever compete with. Extras are a little slim, but I wasn't
expecting directors commentary or a behind the scenes featurette,
when I got the DVD. The shear excellence in Audio/Visual
presentation alone makes the disc worthwhile.
The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because I was a
little disappointed that there wasn't a great final showdown
between Kim and Shego as I've always considered their fight scenes
to be the highlight of the show and love Nicole Sullivan's voice
work (she is just as funny in all her live action work, very cute
too). Also the movies soundtrack is some rather plain pop songs,
rather than the catching musical score from the show.
Overall a great little purchase!
PS To the hater calling him/herself "dreldarion" who wrote the
review below, a small word of advice: if you're going to write a
sarcastic review, by logic it should contain at least a little
hummour and you're just not funny at all.

specials about jaguars, bears, lions, hyenas, and whales, along
with some bonus material on the programs. You are treated to some
of the great wildlife photography that you expect from National
Geographic. However, I wish that more of the wildlife specials that
were made over the years were included in the set. I would rather
have much more of the artful film photography than the video
included in the bonus footage. Still, it is a very entertaining and
educational set, not too expensive and well worth your viewing
time.

reviews)Aired from 1998-2000 and spanning four
seasons
Based on Lucy Maud Montgomery's Novel, Emily of New Moon is the
brilliant story of a free-spirited orphaned girl who's vivid
imagination, passion to write, and romantic nature clash with her
strict adoptive family.
I am an avid fan of period TV and movies so, when I stumbled on
this show on cable while in my teens it was almost a given that I
was going to enjoy it. But I had know idea then what a deep
impression it would leave on me. I had heard of L.M. Montgomery and
read Anne of Green Green Gables and Anne of Avonlea but had never
heard of the Emily books so the series was completely new to me.
and I was hooked, I watched as often as I could but the trouble was
that the show's time slot Kept changing with the result that I
often missed out, which was annoying because the show quickly
became my favorite. Everything about it was wonderful, the
casting/acting, the costumes and sets, the music especially the
music. in short for me it was TV bliss. It wasn't all bad really,
withdrawl symtoms from missing the show lead me to read the books
Emily of New Moon (Emily Novels) Emily Climbs (Emily Novels) and
Emily's Quest (Emily Novels) which to this day are at the top of my
list of The Best Books Ever. Eventually I lost track of the show
completely, and never got to see the last episodes, but I never
forgot about it. If you've seen and enjoyed the Anne of Green
Gables movies Anne of Green Gables: The Collection or perhaps the
long running Avonlea series Road to Avonlea Season 1 Road to
Avonlea Season 2 Road to Avonlea Season 3 - Spin-off from Anne of
Green Gables Road to Avonlea Season 4 Road to Avonlea Season 5 -
Spin-off from Anne of Green Gables Road to Avonlea Season 6 -
Spin-off from Anne of Green Gables Road to Avonlea: The Complete
Seventh Volume Emily is along the same lines but darker in tone
with a slightly gothic feel. Season one chronicles the first year
of Emily's life at New Moon Farm, after the death of her father. As
she battles and begins to win over spartan Aunt Elisabeth, brings
light and laughter into the sheltered life of fragile, sweet Aunt
Laura and finds a kindred spirit in cousin Jimmy who is anything
but simple minded. Emily also finds out where the gift of her
second sight comes from. We meet llse Burnley, Perry Miller, and
Teddy Kent. who will play important roles in the rest of Emily's
life, each in their own way.
Like all book to screen adeptations the series has it's detractors.
some think that to many liberties were taken and that as the show
went on it drifted further and further from the books. This is
true, there where a lot of changes and additions not in the
original meterial, but in my opinion these did not hurt the series
but improved it. If the books had been followed exactly, I don't
think the series would have survived long.
Over the years, I had lost hope that this wonderful but little
known show would be released on dvd, so I'm overjoyed that Echo
Bridge Entertainment has done so, and I can only hope that there
are plans to release the next three season's. I can't recommend
this series highly enough.

reviews)The No. 1 student of Ry'zanpaku is about to face
his greatest, most terrifying challenge -- moving into the
dojo!
And unsurprisingly the training and action are amped up
considerably in "Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple - Season One, Part
Two," which follows Kenichi's life as an official student who
lives, works and trains at his dojo. And while the sitcom antics
take center stage for several episodes (gratuitous beach episode
ahooooooyyyy!), Kenichi's fights start to shift from fighting
one-off thugs and into tackling Ragnarok's strongest fighters.
Kenichi is shocked and horrified when the masters suggest that he
move into the dojo... until Kensei points out that he'll be living
under the same roof as Miu. From then on, Kenichi's training
becomes even more hardcore -- and he also deals with island
vacations (and swimming lessons from Shigure), teacher visits,
romantic rivalries, hot springs, Honoka's infiltration of the dojo
(and discovery that the masters aren't actually that bad), and
challenges from another dojo (Crab-head!).
But the threat from the megagang Ragnarok hasn't vanished, and
Kisara has become one of their highest-ranked fighters, the Fists
of Ragnarok. She sets out to destroy Takeda for his defection,
leaving it up to Miu and Kenichi to rescue those who have left the
organization. And Kenichi is horrified when Miu is cast as Juliet
in the school play, opposite the school heartthrob Tanimoto -- but
he'd be even more horrified if he realized how close Ragnarok
is...
The first five episodes of "Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple -
Season One, Part Two" are rather fluffy and lightweight compared to
the ones that precede it, with classic sitcom antics like Shigure
and Sakaki pretending to be Miu's parents. And there's plenty of
fun comic relief, especially from Apachai ("When she turns you
down, please don't hurt yourself! Live is worth living!") and
Kenichi himself (stoically slapping Nijima while the latter rants
about world domination). The mass shark attack was kinda silly,
though.
But the rest of the season gets darker, bloodier and nastier --
there are savage street fights, Takeda and his buddy beating
up/being beaten by Ragnarok, Miu and Kisara's heated brawl, and the
formation of Nijima's own bizarre gang, the Shinpaku Alliance. It
climaxes on a slightly unsatisfactory note, since Kenichi's
nervewracking bus-top fight doesn't have much of an ending, but it
is fun to see Kenichi becoming strong enough to take out the bad
guys without much visible effort.
And Kenichi is getting a lot stronger, to the point where the
lesser Ragnarok thugs see him as a cat-eyed black demon figure --
but he's still the same kind, sympathetic guy who flies into a
teary fit at the idea of Miu dating someone else. Miu shows what
she's capable of when she's mad, reveals her longing for a "normal"
nuclear family, and her determined ambition to play Juliet in the
play; while Takeda shows the depth of his friendship with Kenichi
and Ukita.
The masters all get some fleshing out too, whether it's Shigure's
gentler tutelage, Akisame's friendship with Miu's dad, or Apachai's
basketball fun. And the voice actors all deserve a great shout-out
-- Josh Grelle and Carrie Savage are brilliant as the kind, flaky
Miu and Kenichi. Christopher Sabat, Sonny Strait, Trina Nishimura,
Vic Mignogna, and Kent Williams are awesome as the masters, while
Jason Liebrecht is both warm and creepy as Tanimoto, and J. Michael
Tatum is great as Takeda.
The second half of "Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple's" first season
has a slightly unsatisfying ending, but it leaves you eagerly
waiting for what comes next. A must-see.

Kenichi: The Mightiest
Disciple - Season One, Part Two
When we last saw Kenichi, he was making the transition from wimp to
warrior – okay, maybe no warrior, but he was definitely taking
steps to man up.
Well, the world is starting to notice, which is good and bad. On
the plus side, he’s making friends and getting more respect. In the
minus column, his rep is growing faster than his skills, which is
tricky now that every thug in town wants to test his new
techniques. That means between street brawls and trying to score
with Miu, Kenichi still has to hang tough with the six Martial Arts
masters. Lucky for him, the training is getting more tense –
because before Kenichi can finally stand tall, he’ll have to beat
his fiercest opponent yet!

there. His stories were ravaged by the BBC many years ago, and only
a handful have been recovered. The first story is missing,
important episodes like "The Highlanders" and "The Enemy of the
World" are gone. Even episodes with popular villains such as the
Daleks and Cybermen are missing.
Thankfully one of the few stories still intact is the last story.
The ten part masterpiece, "The War Games", is the swansong for the
Second Doctor, Jamie and Zoe. It also introduces the Time Lords as
a group, shows us a rival Time Lord to the Doctor in the form of
the War Chief, and has a nice, epic feel to it that hasn't really
been captured in too many other stories. It was also the last of
the black and white stories.
There are certain problems with the story. For one, it's quite
well-padded and redundant in parts. Truth be told, it could've been
done as a four-part story and worked every bit as well, but that's
a minor gripe.
Special features on this three-disc collection include such things
as commentaries, features on the Target novels and the comic strip,
and much more!
Overall this is a heck of a story and a great collection. Worth
every penny!

reviews)The newest entry in the Veggie Tales series
teaches us to trust God with two stories about His
faithfulness.
First up is the story of George Mueller (Archibald Asparagus). This
real man trusted God to provide everything for the orphanages he
ran. This is the short segment of the DVD, and the focus is on the
famous story of the morning the orphanage ran out of food. Mr.
Mueller still had the kids sit down for breakfast, thanked God for
the food, and then there was a knock at the door....
The main segment is the Biblical story of Gideon (Larry the
Cucumber). He's more comfortable marching in a band then leading
anything. Still, God calls him to defeat the invading army of
pickles with no weapons and the smallest army you ever saw. Is
Gideon crazy? Or will God do what He says He will do?
I don't know how the guys at Big Idea do it, but this is yet
another DVD that kids and parents alike will love. The message is
clear and the stories are entertaining. The first segment could
have been a little funnier, but the main feature more then makes up
for it. I laughed multiple times at the jokes inserted into the
familiar story of Gideon.
Adding to the fun, the Pirates have become bored from doing
nothing, so they try to host the show. That leaves Bob free to do a
silly song written by the French Peas. All is going well with
"Ukulele Karaoke" until the words get shredded by a fan. Then the
fun really starts.
This is yet another strong entry in the fun franchise. Whether this
is your first or not, you'll be sure to be entertained and
challenged by the stories here.

Irwin Allen Shows. You know the shows of this volume are filled
with Monsters and Ghosts of World War 2 U-boat commanders.
It is still great storytelling, With all the crap out on TV that is
running now,this simple throwback to the monster of week was nice
change from CSIs, Law and Orders, Reality shows, News magazines and
game shows. The cast of the Seaview battling the bug eyed monsters
and weird creatures may seem farfetched escapest entertainment by
today's standards, but the quality is there.

gave this show a try. I really enjoyed watching each show with her.
The only downside to this would be the mystical aspect. Emily has
visions of the dead and can communicate with them. It is rather
strange and sometimes eerie. Other than that, she has a lot of
spunk like Anne did, but she is definitely not a people pleaser. I
did have my husband and son watch for one show and they didn't seem
to enjoy it. This is definitely not a timeless masterpiece like
Anne of Green Gables is; however it is highly enjoyable. We are
looking forward to the release of Season 2.

reviews)This DVD is called "Godzilla: The Original
Animated Series Volume 1."
I was born in 1971. So when Hanna Barbera's "Godzilla" cartoon came
out in the late 1970s, I was the perfect age for its intended
audience.
This show featured the Calico, a research ship that traveled all
over the world. The Calico carried all sorts of scientific research
equipment with it, as well as a minicopter, a minisub, a
bathosphere, a hovercraft, and a lifeboat. The Calico's crew
consisted of Captain Carl Majors, Dr. Quinn Darian (a research
scientist), Brock (Dr. Darian's assistant), Pete (Dr. Darian's
nephew), and Godzooky. Godzooky was apparently a younger relative
of Godzilla. He was also Pete's pet.
Although no episode of the show ever mentioned how the crew of the
Calico became friends with Godzooky and Godzilla, it was mentioned
in a press release when the show first aired: Godzooky was trapped
in a coral reef, and he was rescued by the Calico's crew.
As the crew of the Calico traveled all over the world, they would
encounter various monsters, creatures, bad guys, villains, enemies,
etc. When they got in trouble, they could summon Godzilla by
pressing a button on a small handheld signaler, which would emit a
sonic frequency. Godzilla would then appear and save the day. When
the signaler was unavailable, or broken, or when the sonic
frequency was blocked, they could also call Godzilla by having
Godzooky scream. Since Godzilla was a good guy, he would always do
whatever he could to help them.
This show had lots of action, adventure, and heroism. In the 26
episodes of this series, there were monsters, dragons, dinosaurs,
giant insects, volcanoes, time travel, aliens, spaceships, meteors,
asteroids, missiles, tanks, and numerous references to classic
science fiction and ancient mythology. The show had everything that
a boy my age could ever ask for in a TV show. It was my favorite
show at the time.
I still love the show today. It's not my #1 favorite any more, but
it is still in my top 10.
Classic Media has issued a statement regarding the contents of this
DVD. The episodes will be in chronological order, starting with the
first episode of the series.
This DVD contains 4 episodes. They are:
The Fire Bird - A giant flying creature that lives inside a volcano
is wreaking havoc for the people who live nearby. Godzilla has to
stop the creature before it lays eggs. This is a good introduction
to the series.
The Eartheater - San Francisco is being terrorized by a giant
creature that lives underground and eats dirt. Buildings are
collapsing all over the place. The entire city and its inhabitants
are threatened. This is a very good early episode. Of the 4
episodes on this DVD, this one is my favorite.
Attack Of The Stone Creatures - A pair of giant ancient stone
creatures have come to life in Egypt. Their breath creates
blizzards in the middle of the desert. This is a pretty good
episode.
The Megavolt Monster - While doing scientific research in the
bathosphere, Dr. Darian and Brock become trapped by several giant
creatures that live in a giant air bubble at the bottom of the
ocean. Godzilla carries Captain Majors and Pete down there to help
rescue them inside his hand, which Captain Majors says is "air
tight and pressure proof." This is another good episode.

reviews)"Horror of Fang Rock" is one of "Doctor Who"'s
creepier entries. It proves that a story made on styrofoam sets,
with a monster so poorly made that the props kept melting under the
studio lights, can still be edge-of-your-seat viewing. The TARDIS
lands on a rocky outcrop under a lighthouse on the same night that
an alien invasion fleet's advance scout crash-lands into the sea. A
team of doomed lighthouse keepers, derived from a sub-Coleridge
turn-of-the-century ballad, falls easy prey to the shape-shifting,
electricity-wielding creature, as does a yacht full of bickering
aristocrats also stranded on the isle.
The story opens the 4th (and exact middle) of Tom Baker's seven
seasons as the Doctor. As a midway point to the Baker years, "Fang
Rock" is intriguing in that it not only hearkens back to the gothic
horror of his earlier years, but also serves as a window on the
series' future mayhem, when Baker the actor would start acting
against the scripts and run amok of the producers' control. The DVD
release pays detailed attention to Baker's on-set flareups, while
demonstrating how he could still produce great on-screen moments
when working with the right people -- actress Louise Jameson and
director Paddy Russell.
The commentary track sizzles with tales on on-set strife generated
by Baker, if you're into learning that stor of thing. Jameson
(companion Leela) provides excellent audio, balancing detailed
production anecdotes with an intelligent critique of the story,
almost 30 years later. She gives a far more satisfactory origin of
the name "Leela" than did Leela's creator, writer Chris Boucher, on
the "Robots of Death" DVD some years back. Terrance Dicks, always a
hoot on DVD, lavishes praise over elements of his own script, while
laughing off other elements of the story. If he likes a cliffhanger
(the end of Part Three, a funereal Baker oratory), he takes full
credit; if he thinks the cliffhanger landed on the wrong beat (the
end of Part Two, when two characters awkwardly embrace against an
off-camera scream), he'll cheerfully blame the director. Third
wheel John Abbott, who played the youngest of the lighthouse
keepers, has neither lot to do in the story nor to say on the
commentary track, but he does give an interesting account of what
it was like for a rookie actor to intrude on Baker's turf.
The best of the extra features is the 35-minute documentary on
Terrance Dicks' "Who" career, featuring interviews with producer
Barry Letts, old series writer Louis Marks, and current series
writer Paul Cornell. Cornell gives a great breakdown of what made
the "Fang Rock" script work so aggressively well ("The story has
three McGuffins... and two of them are used to defeat the third").
DW book editor Peter Darvill-Evans, who looked nothing at all like
I imagined (more like Ric Ocasek than Charles Dickens), describes
Dicks' contribution to several decades' worth of DW novels. The
closing credits feature a fabulous montage of every iteration of
the Dicks-coined phrase "reverse the polarity of the neutron flow",
against Jon Pertwee's observation that you could sing the line to
the tune of "The Sailor's Hornpipe".
Now that "Doctor Who" has graduated into the 21st century and is
working on its second season of new episodes, with modern
production values and British TV's most celebrated writers, an
episode like "Fang Rock" can easily sink into irrelevance alongside
last season's gothic horror fests "The Unquiet Dead" and "The Empty
Child". However, aided by the usual wonderful set of extra
features, this DVD reminds those of us who've been in the "Who"
fandom game for a while just how we got here in the first
place.

reviews)I love Daria and this movie was a very fitting
sign off for the series. However, for some unknown reason, MTV
found reason to make numerous small cuts throughout the movie from
the original version as it appeared in its original broadcast.
Jokes are deleted, natural conversations between characters are
reduced to "just the facts, Ma'am." At least one scene, in which
Daria decides not to go on a date with Tom in favor of staying
home, was totally cut out of the movie. ???
The original soundtrack was also replaced with a generic music
backdrop to avoid obtaining video distribution rights for the
original music.
I recommend buying the DVD if you have no other way to see the
broadcast version. I just hope that someday MTV will someday see
fit release it uncensored, as well as complete unedited season
releases. (Noggin edits episodes for content).
