Watch Danny Phantom- Season 1 Online.
Movie Title: Danny Phantom- Season 1 Danny Phantom- Season 1 is available for streaming or downloading. |
Fans have been clamoring for Danny Phantom DVDs for ages, and while it’s very exciting to finally get some, this is more than a little disappointing. The back cover claims “It’s a scary good time with the COMPLETE first season of Danny Phantom.” (emphasis mine.) However, it only contains the first 13 episodes, while season one was twenty episodes long. Similarly, the “Season Two” set contains episodes 14-26 and does NOT include the fan favorite “The Ultimate Enemy,” which is probably why many fans wanted this one to begin with.

Save your money for a REAL box set that has all twenty episodes, plus extras and everything a season box set should have. This, sadly, isn’t it.
Danny Phantom did the impossible for this cynical viewer; it made me love cartoons all over again. A wonderful lighthearted gem that told the story of a boy growing up while handling his ghost powers in a children’s network managed to create depth, character development, and story arcs that increasingly gets better each episode (unfortunately to drop by the poorly conceived Season Three).
Season One obviously starts at the beginning, where we’re introduced to the main cast and their eccentric personalities. Little by little, the majority of them grow into their defined roles: Danny slowly gains confidence as he balances hero life with his normal alter ego, his older sister Jazz realizes the truth behind her brother and supports his decision in secret while softly embracing her family’s ghost life, Valerie turns from a spoiled, rich brat to a kick butt ghost hunter out for revenge (and later, justice), etc. But truly it is the character Vlad Masters who shines with his debonair, mysterious, and complicated persona–his opposites and similarities with Danny all clear, a myth arc that plays a key role on Danny’s struggle with darkness.

There’s a lot of continuity despite half of the episodes remaining as filler, but considering it’s the first season, those fillers really establish the characters and elements we all learned to love over time. Most of the episodes are solid: “Fanning the Flames” established a solid story while making the Danny/Sam romance lovable (a farcry when Season Three makes it deplorable), “Bitter Reunions” breaks the status quo and marks the beginning of the manipulatively awesome Vlad, “Shades of Gray” takes a pre-existing character and breathes new life into her as Valerie turns from pampered princess to hardened ghost hunter, and of course there’s the magnificent “My Brother’s Keeper” which starts the excellent character development of Danny’s older sister Jazz who starts off as a know-it-all constantly shielding Danny from the harsh realities of life. There, she begins to see the potential in her kid brother.
Some are only average at best: “13″ (decent, but without the oomph), “Teacher Of The Year” (possibly the most heavy moral focused episode on DP; so much so that it feels more a Saturday Morning educational program then an Action/Comedy) while others are just plain bad: “Splitting Images” (which started Danny’s Growing Darkness Arc, but mushed it with a antagonist who lost his purpose halfway through the series and a jarring concept of right vs. wrong between Danny and Sam). And so forth.
The DVD only covers the first 13 episodes. There are no extras, but the episodes themselves are in good quality. And I will give Nickelodeon credit; they did put the episodes in their PROPER chronological order. All except “Parental Bonding” (episode two) and “One of a Kind” (episode 3) which got switched with each other. The DVD covers, both front and back are also prone to error. The first volume alone for example has Danny with his “DP” chest insignia; something he does not receive until Season Two (partly covered in the second DVD).
Hardcore fans will feel ripped off while the casual (the type who considers DVD extras more luxury then mandatory) may enjoy it. Keep in mind though the average price for this is expensive; a problem that would have be fixable if they had put in all 20 episodes in one boxed set, but for just 13, it may be too much.
If that doesn’t bother you (and considering none of us knows if there ever will be a “true” DP Boxed set), this is probably the best news to come for DP fans. If it does, then it’s advisable that you don’t get it.
I honestly wish this review rating gave me the option to put in halves because with the non-existent extras, it’s more 3.5 then four stars. It truly is a mixed blessing at best.
