  • Timeless Lessons Urgently Needed Today

    With socialism, leftism and Islam on the rise, the only weapon against totalitarianism is freedom in Christ. These timeless lessons reflect a morality of decency within citizenship. The character is portrayed realistically, including his bad behavior. The lessons are based in doing good for and to others, rather than the destructive self-esteem cult. The DVDs have nice clear pictures, far better than what is available on You Tube. A great buy.

  • Great buy, although not complete series

    I have always loved and collected stop-motion clay animation movies, from the Russian tv show “Cheburashka” to the kid/horror/fantasy movie “Coraline”. Davey and Goliath is no exception. I already had a lot of episodes, but after some digging I found out that there were many more which I did not have. After I found this set, I knew I had a good deal, so I quickly bought it. The sound quality is very good, and the visuals are awesome too. There is a very rare moment in only one or two episodes where the screen goes a bit wobbly, but quickly adjusts back. I guess that was a bad bit in the film reel. Very minor. The stories in it are great to. It was made by the Lutheran Church so it Christian topics and morals, which it does a good job of teaching. It deals with lying, disobedience, racism, fear, the environment, common sense, bravery, and others. The art style is fabulous, especially after the first few episodes. I watch it and study the sets they made, and am amazed at the creativity. If you think that this set has the entire collections, then think again. It is missing the 2004 episode “Snowboard Christmas” and “The Family of God”. I don’t mind the fact that the former is missing (I dislike the episode myself), but there was no reason for them to preclude “The Family of God” episode. My only guess is that it was because they felt it was weird showing Davey in church taking communion (eating bread, drinking a sip of wine). And yet they don’t mind Davey’s father smoking a pipe. They also have cut scenes from some of the episodes and changed episode titles. Pretty much anytime an American Indian is mentioned, with the rare exception, they gave it the chop. They removed Davey, Sally, and Cousin Barney playing ‘Cowboys and Indians’ in the episode “Cousin Barney”. In an episode originally named “Ten Little Indians”, they changed the name to “Ten Pin Alley”. In it, there is a boy dressed as an American Indian, picking up bowling pins (which a character calls Indians). All of that is removed. They changed an episode originally titled “The Gang” to “The Jickets”. Who knows why.? In another episode called “Whatshisname” they removed a scene of Davey IMAGINING that he is tarring and feathering a kid who framed him for a crime. I could go on about other cuts and removals, but I won’t. I have some VHS tapes of the episodes unedited, so I will always have all of the episodes complete, although some are extremely hard to find. OVERALL Sound: 8/10 Visual:8/10 Story Quality:9/10 Storage: 6/10 Menu Selection: 9/10 Overall, I’m happy to have tons of episodes in restored condition, but for the collector such as myself, the episode editing and lack of some episodes keeps me from giving this product a 5 star rating.

  • Wholesome Values

    Growing up in the '60's was a different time with different values. Sunday morning for many kids meant rising early and tuning in Davey & Goliath on TV. Those days are long gone but (thankfully) Davey & Goliath are back in this 12 CD boxed set. The trials and tribulations of Davey, his trust dog Goliath and his family are brought to claymation life in short episodes through this 19 hour treat. As a parent I'm happy that my five year old can get the same lesson in life's values in faith as I did as a child. Only now we can watch episodes at our leisure and don't have to wait until Sunday morning!

  • Davey & Goliath Collection

    I highly recommend this treasured set from the Clokey family who created the "Gumby" series. This is the total series plus a couple specials done throughout the run. These are great programs with excellent morals and stories for the whole family.

  • I just love this DVD set

    Kids nowadays should watch this dvd instead of playing games and being on their phone. Young and older kids can learn a lot from this DVD, even adults too. I watch one or two episodes every night before I go to bed! 😊
