Maybe HIT should go to school instead of chickens........2006-06-26

Thomas continues its downfall with another poor DVD. The stories are bland and don't possess that great cleverness the Rev. W. Awdry had. Let's get on to the stories:

Thomas Saves the Day: 4/5
To catch a runaway train, Thomas must travel through a difficult bend he once crashed on for going too fast. A lot was explained so quickly and this story should have been two parts, separating it when Thomas crashes. Still, without that, well-written.

Don't Tell Thomas: 2/5
The engines are planning a surprise for Thomas, but in the meantime no one will talk to him. Plain and simple. Nothing worht reviewing here.

Fish: 2/5
Thomas hates fish and must pull a load of them, but as the fish get stinkier, Thomas becomes more distracted from the line. A story worth watching but the fact is Thomas spilled off the line in a horrible fashion. It looked too fake to be cute.

Halloween: 5/5
Emily and Thomas must visit the spooky smelter's yard and both are concerned of ghosts. When a "ghost" appears, Thomas and Emily both run away. This is the best story of the tape. The ghost presence is played off cleverly.

Spic and Span: 4/5
An inspector is coming to award the cleanest engine with a ribbon. Thomas and Percy want to be clean but every time they go to the washdown it is busy. Find out who wins it may surprise your child.

Chickens to School: 0/5
Unrealistic. Thomas must stop at three times to drop off separate loads but he's too tired and his driver is too dumb to notice they drop off chickens at a school. The chickens are even showed sitting in the classroom. It's not cute it's just dumb. Maybe as dumb as HIT forgetting engines have drivers.

Thomasand the Circus: 4/5
Thomas is in charge of the circus and wants to push the whole lot by himself. But as he collects more freight, he starts needing help. A smooth helping story is classic Thomas.

Extras speak for themselves. Check them out.

Buy this DVD if you can stand Michael Brandon's inappropriate voices and love Thomas. Thomas is the main character in ALL of the episodes. Help yourself to a copy, I guess.

FANTASTIC!.......2006-02-09

This is one of the finest "new" Thomas features in a long time. The stories are well developed and the interactive games are fun and educational. Your little Thomas fan will love this one!

So far the best Thomas DVD due to great extra features.......2005-12-30

What sets this Thomas DVD apart is the excellent bonus features that are well done and my child actually enjoys doing. In addition to the hour ro so of episodes you get "storybook adventure" which is a story done in computer animation with problems to solve between every scene. the problems are radomized a bit so you kid can nto just memorize everything. also included in the special features is a read along story (thomas birthday party) where the words light up when being read. at the end there is an option quiz. there is also a gallery with the major characters pictures and bios amoung a few other things.

i wish all the kid dvds had such quality interactive features. heck i would get the dvd just for the above mentioned special features.

Disappointing.......2007-06-08

Very disappointed as the toy which actually came with the DVD was a normal blue thomas and not the special gold Thomas. Have brought this to the attention of Amazon although they still uphold the photo with the gold Thomas.

Join the Celebration!.......2006-11-12

My two youngest boys, 2 and 4, LOVE Thomas, and can watch them over and over again. This is another one added to their beloved collection. Heck, I don't even mind watching!

Once again, a great video for your little one to enjoy!.......2006-01-27

I am a big fan of all Thomas videos as they teach toddlers good manners and have a positive story.

Best season 8 compilation so far.......2005-08-17

This Thomas video was too bad. The stories are good and season 8 has grown on me. There is the usual seven stories on here and three activites and a music video. It's funny have the story on here entitled Fish has the exact same name as the story from season 4 called Fish. The stories on this dvd are:

THOMAS SAVES THE DAY 8/10:
Thomas isn't very good at turning the sharp bend around the mountain so he has Annie and Clarabel guide him. But on day, he doesn't have his two coaches with him and ends up crashing on the sharp turn. The next day, Thomas must stop some runaway trucks but can he make it pass the mountain bend?

DON'T TELL THOMAS 8/10:
There is a surprise that everyone on the island is planning for Thomas and Thomas gets suspicious when he hears the other engines talking about it. He soon gets mad when nobody will tell him about the surprise. At last the surprise is ready but Thomas is nowhere to be seen.

FISH 7/10:
Thomas is to take a load of fish to the harbor. Since he hates the smell of fish, he decides to take all the cars of fish at once and pulls his train very fast, but the troublesome trucks are up to no good again.

HALLOWEEN 9/10:
Thomas and Emily are sent to the old engine shed on halloween night but they are very afraid that the ghost engine will get them. When they get there, Arry and Bert hide in the shadows and play tricks on them, leading Thomas and Emily to believe that there really is a ghost engine after them.

SPIC AND SPAN 9.5/10:
A railway inspector is coming to the Island of Sodor to make sure that all the engines are clean and in working order. The bigger engines are sure that they will be the best but Thomas and Percy are determined too.

Chickens to School 10/10:
Thomas has a very big job to do. He has to pick up the children and take them to school, take chickens to the market, and sheep to the farm. While doing the job, Thomas gets tired and messes everything up.

THOMAS AND THE CIRCUS 9/10:
The circus is coming to the island and all the engines are very excited. Thomas gets to collect the circus from the docks. The train is very heavy and Thomas has to work extra hard but when other engines offer to help, Thomas refuses to share the fun.

Again, good selection of stories. I am unsure of when the nineth season will start but it should start at the beginning of next year.

Good Deal.......2005-03-29

This dvd was longer than some of the other thomas videos, plus it came with a special gold thomas for the 60th anniversary. Great deal!
