3-2-1 Penguins - Runaway Pride at Lightstation Kilowatt
This half-hour episode shows how pride goes before the fall. While most  youngsters hear this lesson from the pulpit or the recriminating lips of parents  and teachers, Michelle gets to learn it the fun way: from astronaut penguins.  The creators ofVeggieTalescontinue to make moral values palatable to  children as they head into outer space with a quartet of suited-up Antarctic  birds led by a Elvis-haired, surfer-dude captain with a penchant for song. When  they attempt to rescue a planet of light-bulb-headed aliens, the captain must  learn to ask for help in order to keep a spaceship from crashing into them.  Religious talk is kept to a minimum, until the series' traditional prayer at the  end. By including a music video ("Space-Surfin' Superstar"), storyboards,  concept art, and drawing lessons, this DVD offers far more entertainment and  educational opportunities than just the story.
