Top Cat: The Complete Series [DVD] [2002]

Great dvd for the kids to watch and enjoy and keep them occupied.

Great series for kids

Takes you back to childhood .

I watched Top Cat as a kid in the mid 60s , but this, I see now of course, is not just kids' stuff. I am amazed at the high quality of the scripts - they could have been written yesterday (or perhaps not, if you subscribe to the view that 'they don't make them like this anymore'!: very witty and very funny (a la Bilko). The little details in the animation are wonderful as well. In one of those mad fits of nostalgia we more senior citizens can be prone to, I bought some other DVD sets along with this one - the Flintstones, for example. As good as the others are (if uneven) this present set is a delight throughout. Everyone with a DVD player should own a copy. And if you don't have a DVD player, buy this set anyway, then get one. You wont find a better excuse. Good old Hanna-Barbera!

Cartoons are not just for kids! "Top Cat" aka "Boss Cat" was a much appreciated series by young parents in the sixties. Because of the almost thirty-minutes running time they could occupy a childs mind during that awkward period between school finishing and meal times. There was a lot of Phil Silvers (Sgt. Bilko) in TC's delivery, following on from Mr Jinks, the cat in HB's "Pixie and Dixie" slot. I always felt that TC owed a lot to the musical "West Side Story". "TC" and his gang were a feline version of the Jets, not,of course, advocating weapons or violence, but just simple exercises in hoodwinking Sgt. Dibble, {Officer Krupke}. Whatever was in the mind of these master animators, it certainly proved to be a popular and succesful series of cartoons. It's great to see them all together in this superb DVD collection. The kid's are welcome to watch, but "TC" is for everyone, young or old!

Ok.

This is just a great walk down memory lane (for me) but my kids (aged 9 and 11) also really enjoy it. We sit down as a family from time to time to watch the next episode and it is just good wholesome, very funny, family entertainment. I think this is one of the best value for money items I have ever purchased (NB even my wife loves it and she just hates cartoons generally). The voices, the characters, the humour, this was a very polished cartoon series and the somewhat out of date and clunky animation techniques take nothing away from the enjoyment. I am constantly amazed at how good it is. Only trouble is there are 30 episodes and we are now on number 28! Recommend, recommend, recommend.

A wonderful set with all episodes of this classic cartoon spread over several dvds.

Fine,wonderful,perfect !!!

Bon collection.

Top Cat fue la segunda serie de éxito, después de Los Picapiedra, del dúo Hanna-Barbera que se situó en el prime time de la televisión norteamericana allá por los 60's. Dinámica, con guiones un poco repetitivos pero llenos de gags ingeniosos y un sabor amable entre jazzy y urbano con las eternas picarescas de Don Gato y su pandilla, inolvidable Benny, contra el oficial Dibble. Esta edición de cinco DVDs para el mercado inglés lamentablemente viene con audio y subs sólo en inglés para los treinta episodios y la mayoría de los extras pero no en los tres audio comentarios. Warner, como no. La presentación pierde el digipack americano y se convierte en una amaray quíntuple de grosor normal dentro de una funda de cartón. Ganamos espacio en la estantería al menos. Una delicia nostálgica y para coleccionistas: he's the most tiptop Top Cat!

Is this the DVD sent to me from Britain? If it was, I returned it to Britain because the zone code for this DVD did not work in Canada.

Top cat on dvd is nostalgic gold. TC and the gang are immortalised in this collection. I am a child again. Enjoyed every minute. Thank you.
