Product Description

As Told By Ginger: The Wedding Frame
Lois is planning her wedding to Dr. Dave with help from Ginger. Rather than being a joyous time, it's stirring up doubts in Ginger about the whole idea of commitment. And what's worse, someone is out to sabotage the marriage…before it even starts!

As Told By Ginger: Far From Home
Ginger wins a scholarship to a fellowship program for an entire semester. Her friends are sad at the thought of Ginger being gone for so long. Courtney is, too. And that's making Miranda look for a way to make sure Ginger stays gone! Meanwhile, it takes Ginger's absence for Darren to realize his true feelings for her.

Undeservedly unknown.......2007-01-20

As Told By Ginger is one Nickelodeon's lesser known Nicktoons. Yet it combines some of the finest animation from the Klasky-Csupo studios (Rugrats, All Grown Up) with often clever writing from the independent series creator Emily Kapnek. ATBG gives a fresh take on the classic 'girl-in-junior-high' theme.
With this package you get two of the series tv-movies (aka Nickflicks) and a few episodes from the first season. Of the two, 'The Wedding Frame' is definitely the better one. Not only do you get the series finale (with a vintage Ginger surprise ending) but also two strong episodes with 'Stealing First' and the character-defining 'Dare I, Darren'.
'Far From Home' has a strong start but the script loses track halfway through the movie. But you also get the series first-ever episode 'Ginger The Juvey', which gives a great introduction to the main cast.
In short: a must-have for all fans and anyone who thinks a US animated series has to be either cartoonish junk or overly sappy melodrama.

A story about a dreamy, misunderstood girl who wants to be a writer when she grows up. My 8 year old daughter loved it, and so did I.
