Customer Reviews of The Perils of Penelope Pitstop - The Complete Series

The Title sounds so bad.
I think of this title now; The Pearls of Penelope Pitstop and It really sounds like a Tv add for Bath room paper. The Anthill Gang, well we won't go there. The animators never actually got original with some of these shows or their titles. The shows are indeed the syndicated film prints of them. It turns out that this series has not been seen in close to thrity years and regretfully (or not) the original film prints have become lost.

Long live the oldies
As everyone knows the old hanna barbera cartoons are so much more entertaining than things like scooby doo and all the other rubbish, the Anthill mob are the coolest characters ever, this is a must if u like wacky races or any HB cartoons, buzzin'

Stop releasing syndicated versions, please!
The three stars I give to this release is not to the show itself, but the shabby treatment it's been given. It looks like the syndicated editions of this show have been used to make the DVD, which means all the cliffhanging tags that ended the programs have been omitted. The original series usually left you on a cliffhanger note that was continued from one program into the next, and here, all the episodes end nice and cleanly. I don't see any reason for this, since you are getting the complete season, after all. It's a shame that so much material was left off this release (when this is probably the only time it will ever get such a deluxe treatment), but I suppose it's better than not having it available at all. I wish Warner Bros. would pay more attention to what they're leaving out when they release these Hanna Barbera sets. I wasn't happy about the edited shorts being included on their Tom & Jerry 2-disc set, the syndicated end credits (instead of the more proper one from the original broadcast) used on the "Wacky Races" set, and certainly not over this. Even the lamer opening theme is used on the Penelope Pitstop episodes. Just very disappointing, overall.
