Madeline’s Great Adventures (Shout! Factory Kids DVD)
Picture:
C+ Sound: C+ Extras: D
Episodes: B-
The
second Madeline DVD we are looking at, Madeline’s
Great Adventures, is the first with episodes and that is more the norm for
the child-safe animated version of the franchise, which you can read about at
our coverage of The Madeline Movie
at this link:

The six
episodes include:
Madeline & The Magic Carpet
Madeline On Safari
Madeline & The Lost Crown
Madeline & The Gypsies
Madeline & The Pirates
Madeline & The Forty Thieves
It is
amusing to put such an innocent, comical female character in classic
adventures, but the makers have done a good job here and it makes for a nice
follow-up to the first release. There is
more here to enjoy and I therefore consider it the better disc. The 1.33 X 1 image and Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo
are of the same quality as the first DVD, but there are no extras.
