This is a decent set worth picking up especially if you're a fan. It looks like these are presented (the Woody woodpecker cartoons) in order they were made and/ or presented in their day. My only complaint is that I wish the remastering was a little better. This is definately for those that grew up watching these cartoons, not really for those that don't know anything about it. Volume #2 should be released soon which should be worth the purchase as well.

For me, this was mostly a nostalgia trip. I was and am a fan of the Warner Brothers/Looney Tunes cartoons, primarily. But it was always a treat on the rare occasions when I did get to see Woody Woodpecker; like Yogi Bear and friends, he was there, just not as accessible. Now at last he is, and it's permanent, and recapturing a part of one's childhood as cheerful as this guy can't be bad, right?

This is Vol I of the classic cartoon collection:
As a kid, growing up in the 1980's, I didn't realize that this show went as far back as the 1940's. The Woody Woodpecker I grew up watching in the 1980's was actually a series called "The Woody Woodpecker Show" from 1957. Which along with Walter Lantz, also featured the legendary brilliant master Tex Avery. With such characters as Splinter, Buzz Buzzard, Gabby Gator, Chilly Willy, Bessie Beary, Maw, Hickory, Ms. Meany(voiced by Grace Stafford) and although there are some Tex Avery cartoons featured on here, there still isn't enough.
To potential buyers out there, this ONLY features, (especially the first two DVD's) very early cartoons of Woody Woodpecker as well as the "Cartune Classics and Swing Symphonies. By the third DVD, Woody Woodpecker gets a little better with the addition to Chilly Willy. But still there are alot of Chilly Willy cartoons missing.
Most people already know that the Woody Woodpecker from the 1940's, very early 50's is a lot more belligerent and psychotic than later years much like Bugs Bunny, since their character was still developing. Then you have your fans that say only the older version of Woody is better. 1940-1952. I always felt that the old Woody only carried a one dimensional plot that lacks pace with very similar situations. When Tex Avery was involved with Woody Woodpecker, (1958-1967) there was more variety. There are a few features on here that didn't quite qualify for a five star review. The video quality is subpar to say the least. Digitally remastered means digitally remastered instead of what they did. by using a video processor to rid of "image noise" and "dull color" by adding less noise and more color, but at the same time making the picture blurry. Falling far from their promise. Especially for a three disk set, there could have been alot more bonus features, but instead we are left with very small samples of Walter Lantz behind the scenes. The lack of Gabby Gator also didn't sit well.
I'm hoping volume II has more of the cartoons I'm looking for, such as Ms. Meany and Gabby Gator, but anyway, this Vol 1 is still a nice collection to have, that you will still enjoy if you're a fan of the show.
Please feel free to comment.

Finally, after waiting for years and years we at last have an excellent compilation of Woody Woodpecker cartoons. The toons themselves are in pristine condition and look as good today as the day they were made. If you are a Woody Woodpecker fan RUN!! dont walk and grab this amazing set

This Woody Woodpecker series is the old, the dull and the bad Woody Woodpecker Show. There is nothing classic about them because this is only based on the age of the show. The Classic Woody Woodpecker would be the the good ones of the 60's and the voice. This is not worth more than a bunch of those $1 DVD's put together. If you like the Woody of the 60's show this DVD is a ripoff. I was duped by the name Classic. What a old bunch of dull shows about a Woody Woodpecker Show from the 30's to 50's period. That's it, nothing classic. No classic Woody Woodpecker Show on DVD.
