August 11, 2009 TV on DVD Releases: Animated
Monday, August 10th, 2009Here is this week’s edition for TV on DVD Releases in the animated category.
Barney: Sharing Is Caring! - This is the latest Barney release. It says All New DVD, but I am not sure if it means it has not aired on television or not.
The Batman vs. Dracula/The Batman Superman Movie - This release features to full-length movies, The Batman vs. Dracula and The Batman Superman Movie.
Johnny Test: Johnny X and Super Pooch - This release is a one disc set of six stories (I assume this is what I think of as half-episodes).
Olivia - This is the first DVD release of Olivia, which is a show that premiered earlier this year as part of the Nick Jr. line up on Nickelodeon. It has a run time of 95 minutes, so I am guessing it only has four or five episodes of the show.

Scooby-Doo Meets Batman/Scooby-Doo Meets the Harlem Globetrotters - This release is a double feature with two Scooby Doo movies. The two movies are Scooby-Doo Meets Batman and Scooby-Doo Meets the Harlem Globetrotters.
Super Friends: The Lost Episodes - This release is a two disc set with 24 episodes. The special features include two downloadable Super Friends comics as PDFs using a DVD-ROM.
UFO Ultramaiden Valkyrie: Seasons 3 & 4 (The OVA Collection) - This release is a 2 disc set of the show’s third and fourth seasons of this anime show.
Zorro: Generation Z: Volume 2 - This release features episodes 7 through 11 of Zorro: Generation Z. I am not sure why the switched from 6 episodes in the first volume to only 4 in this volume, but they do seem to be releasing a volume a month with volume one coming out last month and volume three coming out next month.




The latest Spongebob Squarepants TV on DVD is coming on July 21, 2009. The newest DVD release of the show is being called SpongeBob SquarePants: To SquarePants or Not to SquarePants. This release is just one disc with a run time of 88 minutes. Not much content for a television show release, but normal for kids show releases. It would be nice if they just released kids shows in seasons, but that just is not the norm. It has 8 episodes of the show on it, but remember this show is done with two stories per episode that airs on television and technically there are two episodes per half hour time slot at least in most cases. Thus this is really only like watching four episodes on television, which is the true norm for kids TV on DVD releases. The episodes included are “To SquarePants or Not to SquarePants,” “Squid’s Visit,” “The Splinter,” “Slide Whistle Stooges,” “Boating Buddies,” “The Krabby Kronicle,” “The Slumber Party,” and “Grooming Gary.”
