It's a wubbulous world when Jim Henson brings his Muppet magic to Seussville in this trio of shows, hosted by the famous Cat. Each episode begins in Cat's playhouse, where a Wubbulouscope whisks viewers into a Seussian story to explore childhood themes. The first is a show about "firsts" as Terrence McBird attempts to fly. We peek in on Sarah Hall Small, and Morton the Elephant celebrating their own first-time accomplishments. Show number two is a charming nod to How the Grinch Stole Christmas, though this time, the Grinch attempts to steal springtime from those happy Seussville citizens who foil his "terrifically terrible plan" in rhyming repartee. Finally, it's moving day in the last sequence and Jeremy Jalloo is wallowing in self-pity. With flair, the Cat shows up with a traveling elevator to usher Jeremy into a world of opportunities that comes from meeting new people. Such Muppet hilarity, while retaining Seusss' wordplay and witticisms, is a fitting tribute to the late Theodor Geisel. (Ages 2 to 6) --Lynn Gibson

1 out of 5 stars would rather have my nails pulled than be forced to watch this again.......2007-02-01

I thought, um... Dr.Seuss, Henson puppets, sounds like a great combination. I was wrong! The puppets are fine, cute and cuddly but the CG animation looks like a high school student did it on the weekend and the stories are just boring and mind numbing. It would have better to just stick to the original Seuss stories with the puppets and real sets, but between the CG and the stories I found it painful to even make it through the whole DVD.

4 out of 5 stars Another Henson Hit!.......2006-10-16

This series lasted only 3 years, but thanks to the video and DVD releases, everyone can enjoy them again - including people like my son who wasn't even born when the original episodes aired. I found this video in the markdown bin at Wal-Mart, knowing very little about the show but figuring it looked harmless enough. It turned out to be just about the best $5.50 I've ever spent as far as 3-year-old Jordan is concerned! He got several DVDs for Christmas last year, and it took him a little while to work his way to Wubbulous World, but once he did...he was hooked! He is completely enthralled by these episodes, which is not suprising a result at all coming from Henson Associates. Almost everything they touch turns to gold, and this series was no exception. The puppets and set design are very good representations of Dr. Seuss' world, although it is fairly easy to identify the puppets as the Henson group's "muppet" style. A lot of the dialogue is in rhyme and is pleasant enough, as are the songs, though neither are nearly as witty or mindbendingly alliterative as anything Dr. Seuss himself wrote. But maybe that's a good thing for younger audiences; I think too much of that could confuse the very young. Bottom line: I hurried up and ordered three more DVDs from this series before Jordan completely wears out this one!

5 out of 5 stars NOW THATS SEUSSIRIFIC!!.......2004-08-10
