The Smurfs: Volume 1
True Blue Friends
Rating: 2 out of 5

     The Smurfs have been around for what seems like forever, and it’s one of those cartoons that has actually aged well.  Warner Bros. had a great thing going for them when they were releasing each season on DVD, and now they’re releasing Smurfs Volume 1: True Blue Friends, which includes 5 great episodes of this classic series, but it has me asking… why does it only have five episodes?  Why wouldn’t they just release Season 2 on DVD instead of a collection of out-of-order episodes from the second season?  And have I mentioned that it nearly costs the same for this DVD as it did for the seasonal DVD’s? 

I love the Smurfs, and I would normally rate it much higher, but I feel that we’re being robbed by them teasing us with such a small DVD with such a high price.  I would save your money for when they finally release the second season on DVD, or better yet on Blu-Ray.
