Perils of Penelope Pitstop, The: The Complete Series (Repackaged/DVD)

Love watching this growing up

Mint condition new dvd set as advertised packed well and delivered quickly! Thank you!

From David Merrill Gill, Barbara's Autistic son: A straight reissue of the 2005 DVD set release, minus the collectible animation cel that I still have with the original release I bought back then. All entertaining even so. Perhaps for its 50th anniversary next year, Warner Home Video can release the whole series again to DVD/Blu-Ray, this time around including the original two-minute cliffhanger previews that were originally at the end of each episode when it had aired on the CBS Saturday morning schedule from Saturday, September 13, 1969 to Saturday, January 17, 1970. The sound mix would have to be remixed back to the way it originally were, and include the versions of the opening/closing themes that have been retained only on episode nine; Hair Raising Harness Race. Why not also include an extended retrospective, adding the footage from the retrospective included here in this set? Warner Bros. Animation/Warner Bros. Pictures should consider doing a revival series or animated/live-action movie which would bring the story to closure, where Penelope finally learns the truth about her guardian, Sylvester Sneekly, and seeks to get him successfully arrested. The original music cue package, and the opening/closing themes my age group remembers, all from Ted Nichols would have to be retained for the revival series or movie.

Great

When I ordered "Wacky Races" in May, originally, I wasn't going to order either of it's spinoffs. However, after renting the DVDs of the complete series of both spinoffs, I decided to not order "Dastardly & Muttley & their flying machines" but I couldn't resist ordering "The Perils Of Penelope Pitstop". I think that "Perils" is a wonderful series, just as wonderful as "Wacky Races". I love the plot which has Penelope inheriting a vast amount of money and her legal guardian, Sylvester Sneekly, A.K.A. The Hooded Claw, tries to do away with her so he can have the fortune all to himself. However, the Anthill Mob, who are Penelope's loyal friends & protectors, always foil the Hooded Claw's schemes by coming to Penelope's rescue, although, sometimes Penelope rescues herself, then has to rescue the Anthill Mob, sometimes. I also like the fact that the episodes take place in different locations (the jungle, a carnival, the North Pole, a movie lot, etc.). I also love the collectible print and how the set is packaged in full-color. What I really love are the characters, especially Penelope Pitstop & the Anthill Mob, whose members I really like are Yak-Yak, with that laugh of his, and Zippy, because he's so fast and, sometimes, says things twice! Plus, I must admit, I even like the Hooded Claw, with the amazing voice of Paul Lynde, and the Bully Brothers, especially when their schemes fail. To sum it up in one word, this DVD set is wonderful. Just like "Wacky Races", I love this DVD set and, to anyone that's a fan of 60's/70's animation, Hanna-Barbera cartoons, or any cartoons, in general, I recommend that you buy this set because, believe me, it is TERRIFIC!

This was my favorite show as a young girl. Now it can be my grand daughters!

I'm so satisfied that Perils of Penelope are finally available on DVD. Me, my mom and some friends found the show funnier than ever. We can't stop laughing at softy and yak yak, they are the funniest characters in this show. The presentation of the DVD is wonderful as well as the transfer and I have to add that the spanish version also included in this package is even funnier and I just love that this version was included. All Hanna-Barbera shows must include the spanish version in their remastered DVD forms. My only complain is that every show is edited, at the end of it, cutting the introductory part of the successive episode, so when you watch the successive episode you get confused. Why did they do that? There was plenty room to leave show complete as it was originally.

Love the show and it brings back memories in my childhood days. 👍👍🥰

I found this to be very good and it brings back memories of days gone by. I especially liked the hooded claw with the voice of paul lyne . allan

Brings me back to my childhood, my favourite cartoon as a kid

It is great to see this cartoon show again however I was disappointed because every episode except for one doesn't have the original theme tune that I remembered when watching it as a kid. Maybe in Australia our episodes were slightly altered. Apart from that love the show, great memories. Paul Lynde was the best.
