Childhood favorites
First, since many of the reviews from last year mention getting the wrong disc, I will say that I received the right one in Dec. 2010. Either they fixed the problem, or I got lucky.The movies are good quality transfers, with some special features thrown is as well.I bought this for two reasons: "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" and "The Year without a Santa Claus." I have seen these fairly recently, so there were no surprises there. The other shows in the set I had either never seen, or had not seen since I was a young child in the late '70s/early '80s. Without nostalgia, they don't hold up well. Particularly if you aren't Christian, as several - particularly "Nestor the Long eared Donkey" - are very religious (and yet somewhat sacrilegious at the same time, it was a weird era in pop culture).If you are already a fan of these shows, the boxed set is a great value. If you haven't seen them yet, I recommend watching them yourself before showing them to your children.
