Product Description

"HEY, ROCKY, WATCH ME PULL A CLASSIC OUTTA MY HAT!"

Before Bart and Homer, Rocky and Bullwinkle defined smart TV comedy. Now they rule again on DVD!! Cartoon superstars Rocky the Flying Squirrel and Bullwinkle J. Moose are back with three of their funniest serial-adventures! (That's 16 chapters, Low -I.Q.'ers!) In "The Last Angry Moose," Bullwinkle discovers that audiences laugh themselves sick at his dramatic talent.

"The Three Moosketeers" When the Three Musketeers find themselves a couple musketeers short, it's up to Rocky and Bullwinkle to save the day.

"The Guns Of Abalone" The dastardly Boris Badanov is up to his old tricks, but there is one thing that stands between him and world domination. Two things, if you count Rocky!

Wittily written and voiced, these timless classics are a fond salute to old-time melodrama and remain some of the funniest cartoons ever made.

Customer Reviews

literally the best of ROCKY and BULLWINKLE
kinda upsetting when i watched this. i thought i would be getting the best episodes that originally aired on TV, with the fractured fairy tales and mr peabody and all. unfortunately, when they say "the best of rocky and bullwinkle" they MEAN Rocky and Bullwinkle, which i mistook for Rocky and Bulllwinkle and Friends. mr peabody and all are not featured on this dvd. still funny, still entertaining, but somewhat of a let down.

3 stars because of the reruns from previous releases.
If you have the seasonal sets 1, 2, & 3 like I do it is hard decision to buy this for just one new season 4 story made up of only 4 chapters. Should season 4 ever come out, this DVD would just be a poor cup coaster.

For the record this DVD contains:

THE LAST ANGRY MOOSE - 4 chapters from season 2, already on DVD.
Rocky & Bullwinkle & Friends - The Complete Second Season

THE THREE MOOSKETEERS - 8 chapters from season 3, already on DVD.
Rocky & Bullwinkle & Friends - The Complete Third Season

THE GUNS OF ABALONE - 4 chapters from season 4. This is the only reason to consider this DVD as this story has not appeared on any previous VHS or Laserdisc home video release.

A better effort would me made by e-mailing Classic Media and requesting a full season 4 DVD release. It is a short season, only 19 new episodes. That would not be a big financial risk for them! Even better would be to pad out the set with the new Rocky & Bullwinkle chapters shot for the season 5 which re-ran the secondary cartoons.

Reruns!
The Plot Summary above says this DVD includes "Fractured Fairy Tales", "Peabody's Improbable History", the "Adventures of Dudley Doright", and "Aesop and Son". It doesn't. It does contain 16 Rocky and Bullwinkle chapters, which would be well worth the price, except that 12 of the 16 chapters are already available on the Complete Season DVDs. So, the only new material you get is the four chapters of "The Guns of Abalone". For die hard fans only.
