Nostalgic refresher for Viewer having watched show as a kid!
Realy enjoyed watching show as a kid in the 1960's! It's especially nice treat to see the show IN COLOR!! When I was kid, we had Black & White TV -parents didn't get COLOR set until all the kids left home! Really enjoy seeing show again, but quickly realized is true what another reviewer has touched upon.. that MAJORITY of duration of show is filled up by time consuming, repetitive sequences shown over and over in each episode.. watch me pull a rabit out of my hat.. ect. I never noticed it as a child but now, as an adult, it has literally put me to sleep numerous times!! I've had to play episodes several times to try and stay awake! I suspect that back in the 1960's they couldn't afford to do all new animation each episode, so only the actual stories were new each time. But is nostalgic remenicing to see them again IN LIVING COLOR! Wish SONY would put out Season Four!! I have all three seasons and would snatch up Season Four!

This showed Rocked
My wife remembered this show as a cartoon like any other. After watching for a while she realized how far ahead of its time it really was.They did and said things that would be censored today for being politicly incorrect. What's really nice is when you watched it on TV you had to wait a week to see what happened to "R & B" On DVD its a continueing saga.

Be proud, fellow baby-boomers!
Even in this age of tremendous animation geared specifically not for children, (Simpsons, King of the Hill, Family Guy, etc. . . .) The Rocky & Bullwinkle Show still has to be rated as one of the all time great adult cartoons. Creator and master-mind Jay Ward had a unique sense of humor that was two-part silly surrealism and one part subtle-yet-caustic sarcasm. He did not seem capable of writing down to a cartoon audience, and he always assumed everyone got the joke (and, amazingly enough, tons of baby boomers did, along with their Korean-War generation parents).
The animation was, to be kind, stylized (not even quite as good as the "limited animation" of the great Hanna-Barbara cartoons of the 1960's), but what these cartoons lacked in lush graphics and great backgrounds, they more than made up for in great comic writing and imagination. Season Two had some of the most memorable flights of brilliance like "Metal Munching Mice" - a 16-episode jaunt that had six-foot metal "moon mice" bent on destroying America by devouring television antennas. "Upsidasium," another season-two classic, spanned a whopping 36 episodes and revolved around the anti-gravity metal, Upsidasium, sought after by all governments of the world (a tremendous and playful riff on the nuclear paranoia of the late 1950's and early 1960's). And what baby boomer didn't love all the additional special features ("And now here's something we hope you really like.") like Fractured Fairy Tales, Dudley Do-Right, Aesop's Fables, and (my personal favorite) Peabody's Improbable History.
Yet, finally, what made these cartoons historic in their greatness was the staggering alignment of vocal talent. Bill Scott was the voice of Bullwinkle and June Foray (the all time champ of female voice actors) supplied the voice for not only Rocky but also for Natasha, Nell Fenwick, and many and many additional voices. Then there was the great Paul Frees doing Boris, Captain Peachfuzz, Cloyd the Moon Man, and Inspector Fenwick.
The list goes on: Hans Conried (Snidely Whiplash), Walter Tetley (Sherman), Charles Ruggles (Aesop), and Jullie Bennett (all the odd female voices in Fractured Fairy Tales that Foray didn't do, like The Fisherman's Wife). This show even had the greatest vocal talent ever, Daws Butler, on board doing the voice of Aesop Jr. in the Aesop`s Fables feature.
All in all, the greatest alignment of vocal talent ever assembled. Do not miss it. Any season of this classic television treasure will do. --- Mykal Banta

Rife with happy nostalgic, wholesome fun
These DVDs are of excellent quality and value, hours and hours of the pun and double entendre filled humor this truly innovative kids' program brought to early TV audiences. I watched the shows 50 years ago and enjoy them as much today as my parents did then. Why, you ask? The humor was bi-level in age appeal. Kids enjoyed the good guy-bad guy antics of Rocky and Bullwinkle vs. Boris and Natasha while parents reveled in the creative, wholesome and usually silly parables. The additional episodes of Fractured Fairy Tales, Dudley Do-right of the Mounties, Mr. Peabody and Sherman (A Dog and His Boy), who time travel to experience improbable history lessons make this collection priceless. You'll definitely want the first season as well.

Rocky and Bullwinkle Season 2 and 3
I just missed seeing them since the 70's and 80's when I loved every week sitting in front of the TV waiting to see what happened next. It is a Great DVD to revisit your Childhood. And even good clean Cartoons for kids today instead of all the Viloince and Rudeness they seem to play. Hope everyone young and old checks these DVD's out they are great for the Decade they were made.

Nothin up my sleeve
These old R & B cartoons are the best. The DVD's are very clear and have all the episodes in order. Jay ward was at his best here. I wish they would release his other stuff on DVD like george of the jungle with super chicken and tom slick. I would buy those as quick as I did the R & B seasons. I also have season 3 and its great too. Can't wait for season 4. Come on guys give us george of the jungle too.
