The New Howdy Doody Show

I gave this a 9/10 because the 2 (of 4 I believe) DVDs of compiled shows I have are very, very good. They follow a theme that last about 5 episodes, and it's hard to describe just how much effort and talent they put into it. The narrative, music, acting, variety... Our family has re-watched these many times over the years.. I have never seen the original show, but I am sure that the two series are quite different, how could they not be? Pains me to hear this wasn't well-received at the time; If people only knew that especially compared to nowadays, this is a splendid effort at wholesome, talented and sometimes educational fun! We are thankful to everyone involved!
