The children’s fascination with dinosaurs continues with the animated Canadian production Harry & The Bucket Full Of Dinosaurs – To Dino World & Back here on DVD with five episodes: Aaagh!, Overdue!, Uh-Oh!, Nobody's Listening to Me! and Goal!  Each running about ten minutes, you can tell by the titles that they want to give the young audience excitement.

 

However, they are very gentle, kid-friendly and define the kid-glove-care quality not enough entertainment for young children should.  Though not spectacularly innovative, there is charm in the show’s simplicity and the animation style is as pleasant as the storylines.

 

There is an actual bucket that is a link to Dino World and each show has both a heart and good moral center.  If you are not seeing this show on TV, now you can get it on DVD.

 

The1.33 X 1 image is clean, color solid and consistent throughout.  Colors are not the most vibrant we have ever seen, but still better than the average we get these days.  The Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo has Pro Logic surrounds, but they are very limited and two-channel only playback works better.  There are trailers for ten more Warner child-aimed releases, but nothing else.
