The Little Lulu Show

This newer version of Lulu with Lulu doing a comedy monologue for the viewers seems to be a clever knockoff of Seinfeld's sitcom. I like how it included all various classic Lulu comic book characters unlike the 1930's cartoons. However IMHO Annie & Iggy always seemed kind of creepy.

Yesterday, my mother brought me a DVD featuring Little Lulu cartoons on it. So, my first reaction to it was maybe they are they old ones, when I read the back of the DVD it said it featured the voice of Tracy Ullman as Little Lulu and I thought to myself , it was probably a marketing technique to get people to buy the DVD (after all, it was a generic DVD company known as Genius Entertainment selling the product and it was only $1.00). So my cousin and I were all excited about the DVD, come to find out it was the old Little Lulu cartoons that were badly edited and unrestored to their original versions. I sadly disappointed and I realized that I liked the mid-ninties cartoons better. Lulu had more personality in the latter versions and the characters were more developed and likable. So until the original cartoons are restored to their original glory, I'm sticking to the mid-ninties version of "Little Lulu" even though the plots are pretty much from the 1930's-1960's.

I grew up buying this comic despite my being a boy. I loved the idea of neighbor kids adventures instead of modern tech themes common today. A very wholesome, fun reflection of interaction between the sexes with the girls staying one step ahead of the boys.

Watching this series brings back the simpler, innocent times of childhood in the 40's and 50'. I've tried several times to get HBO to please bring back the series as society needs a reminder of how things were before all the hi- tech influence we see today.

From my searching the internet, I found many others who also want it returned though few write and request it. I, for one, would gladly pay to have this complete collection on dvd or blue-ray.

This isn't a bad show. I watch it on Family Channel at Lunchtime because there is nothing else on then. (I'm a teenager you see, I still watch kid shows). But this one isn't bad. It's about a lil' girl named LULU and her friends: Annie, Tubby, Iggy and some others. They get into adventures which are non-offensive for kids, but not too sissy and flowery for a kids show. In some episodes they have little Boys vs. Girls "Wars" (best lemonade stand, Snowball fights, Picnic Ambush), But some young boys might be offended because the Girls always win. But One thing: i'm not sure what time this is supposed to be set in, because they have modern technology and shows and stuff, but they are dressed like kids in the 30's style clothes. (Eg. Some of the boys have the caps with the rolled up pants with the long socks) and they have the "West Side Boys" and they call the group "The Fella's". I'm not sure what to think. I think they could have made the time zone more clear: The 30's or the present day? Oh..And um...Good show too. Rating: 7/10

This is one TV show that I wont forget that easily. Every day when I came back from school I Really wanted to watch simply because of the many Intelligent jokes layered through out the show. Also this is perhaps the only cartoon show I've seen that has a stand up comedy sequence where Lulu Is the star. This show is basically about kids in a neighborhood and their daily happenings. Lulu is shown to be a very intelligent girl and is very likable. She has lots of friends and another notable character in the show is Tubby. A must watch for every one. I'd recommend it to every one simply for the pure fun involved in it. I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF THE SHOW!
