I was pretty excited to rush out and buy these DVDs at last, but mostly I was excited to finally see Tooter the Turtle once again. I was excited that is until I got them home and started viewing them, I was really disapointed when it came to the Tooter segment that it just starts….no intro, oh well i could live with this….then came the ending, oh! my most favorite part was coming up… you know the part where tooter cries for Mr Wizard to bring him back home, anticipation….Tooter spins in the vortex…then Mr Wizard says “Drizzle, drazzle, druzzle, drome; time for zis one to come home”….oh boy!! here it comes!!!……then nothing. It ends right there, abruptly. My favorite part where Mr Wizard scolds Tooter and tells him “Always Always I tell you Tooter, Be just vhat you is, not vhat you is not. Folks vhat do zis are ze happiest lot.” is gone. I really hate to split hairs but it makes this grown up kid feel cheated . Sigh. Huh? What? The rest of the Dvd you ask? eh, its ok i guess……(shuffles feet, while looking down at the ground)
I have mixed feelings about these new Underdog DVDs (this one, The Ultimate Underdog Collection Volume 1 and The Ultimate Underdog Collection Volume 3). On one hand, I think the cartoons here are great for kids. Originally airing on 1960s television, the Underdog serials have just enough sarcasm (”Look! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a frog!) to engage even the most jaded child, and the show’s additional cartoons include not just Tennessee Tuxedo, but the great Tooter Turtle and World of Commander McBragg. (Others include the King and Odie, Klondike Kat, Go Go Gophers and The Hunter.)

That said, whoever put together this set apparently has no appreciation for its contents. The shows on this disk are edited! Not for anything racy or racist (this was ’60s television, after all) but just because someone is apparently too greedy, or too lazy, to deliver what they promise. Despite the fact that these were 30-minute television shows, on this disk each Underdog show — which has two ‘dog episodes and two additional cartoons — runs only 19 minutes.
Worse, the cuts are done with the subtlety of a meat clever. For example, in the Tooter Turtle shorts, after Mr. Wizard says “Drizzle, drazzle, druzzle, drome, time for this one to come home”… the cartoon ends! As another reviewer points out, that’s NOT the end!

As for the Underdog stories on this particular “Volume 2″ DVD, when Riff-Raff plans to steal the gold out of Fort Knox in 1964’s “The Great Gold Robbery,” he also captures Sweet Polly Purebred. Underdog and Polly battle vicious rats when they get shrunk by bad guy Simon Bar Sinister in 1964’s “The Big Shrink.” Finally, when aliens invade Earth and turn everyone into their slaves in the 1966 serial “The Marbleheads,” Shoeshine Boy eventually finds a way to turn himself into Underdog and save the day.
I gave this set four stars because of my fondness for Underdog, Tooter and Commander McBragg. But if you buy it, be prepared to be at least a little frustrated.
