Summary: Not so appropriate...
Review: After hearing rave reviews and having my 2yo adore anything with trains I thought this would be a fun video to own. Perhaps I'm overly sensitive, but I find all of these characters whiny, passive aggressive and rude. This tape, when listened to with adult ears, is really appalling. For example, in one episode Thomas says to another engine ' "Whew! What is that smell? Do you smell it?" I think it's ditch water! Ha, Ha" Gordon had recently fallen into a ditch and Thomas liked to tease him about it'. In another episode several of the engines decide they don't want to do work that it for "smaller engines". Sir Topham Hat says to Thomas "The other engines are sulking and I've shut them up (yes those are his exact words) I want you to..." And yet again-there is an engine that is apparently clumsy. Another engine intentionally rams into him and says "There's more of that comin' if you mess up again." Good Grief! On top of that one of the engines in nearly every episode tells someone to shut up. No matter how nice they "become" in the end, I don't want my son to learn that that kind of language, or any of their behavior, is appropriate.

Summary: Ringo Starr episodes were better
Review: I got this video by accident a tag sale when it was in a Better Late Than Never case. I already had that video and it was only a dollar. Well it's not excatly what I had wanted. George Carlin is a great narrator but these episodes would be better with Ringo narrating. I also find it annoying that in the sodar superstar hall of fame they ignore that the older tapes ever existed. Some of these episodes are really good and they focus on the engines being helpful and useful. I just wish we could enjoy these videoes in there oringinal tapes such as Tenders & Turntables and Better Late than Never. These are good since you can no longer purchase those videos but they never should've been discontinued in the first place.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful DVD from Thomas the Tank Engine!
Review: I LOVE Thomas the Tank Engine! I even have a few on video and DVD. This is a fun DVD! I enjoy watching the commercial at the beginning and can't believe the menu at the front! It's AWESOME!!!!!!

There are eleven different stories on this DVD. This movie is 47 minutes long, but it's a great experience for kids. As a matter of fact, I remenber when Thomas, Percy, Harry and Terrance helped give the villagers a Happy Thanksgiving!

There is a character gallary featuring info about Thomas, Percy, James, Bertiey, Harry the helicopter, Henry, Gorden, Toby, etc.

I hope you will enjoy this DVD as much as I do!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Can't stand the advertising
Review: I will return this DVD as "unplayable". You are actually
forced to sit through minutes and minutes of trailer &
advertising before you are allowed to get to the menu
and select an episode.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A good DVD or Video that can make you help other people out
Review: This is a good collection of Thomas The Tank Engine Videos and DVDs for your Thomas fan. It can help you help your friends. Like if someone is upset or crying you can do something to help them out. You'll understand the facts of friendship when you buy this Thomas video on DVD or VHS. I understand it to when I bought the video.
