I got the impression that this would be a top quality, digitally remastered set of Betty's finest cartoons. In reality, one or two of the tracks wouldn't play at all, and most of them are somewhat pixelated. I attribute some of that to low quality DVD burning, and the rest to it being a really, really old cartoon. Some of the original tapes must have been sitting in a wet basement or something, next to a magnet factory. Anyway, there are still some good episodes on here. I especially like the first one, when Betty is at home with her parents. I'm not sure I'd recommend this purchase though, unless you really, really love Betty and can't get enough of youtube-quality, grainy images of her. For me, in the end her lovable cuteness still shines through!

Betty falls asleep doing a jigsaw puzzle of a white rabbit. She "awakes" just in time to follow the rabbit through the looking glass into a modern wonderland. Betty meets most of the traditional inhabitants of Wonderland and sings "How Do You Do" (to the tune of "Everyone Says I Love You") to them. When the Jabberwocky steals Betty away, everyone comes to her rescue. Betty wakes up back in her living room, just in time to prevent the white rabbit from again escaping from her puzzle.

Drawn Together...back in the day!
Betty Boop was so influential that Comedy Central uses her in a cartoon today. Toot, a character on Drawn Together is based on Betty Boop.
It is fun watching one of these old episodes from this set and then watching an episode of Drawn Together. I have found several on this set that line up with the way Toot is portrayed in an episode of Drawn Together. I am not telling which ones, that is for you to discover.
Betty is awsome! This set is awsome!

Minnie the Moocher....HiDi HiDi HiDi Hi
In 1932, Calloway recorded the song for a Fleischer Studios Talkartoon short cartoon, also called Minnie the Moocher, starring Betty Boop and Bimbo. Calloway and his band provides most of the short's score, and appear in the short themselves in a live-action introduction. The thirty-second live-action segment is the earliest-known film footage of Calloway.
In the cartoon, Betty decides to run away from her harsh parents, and Bimbo comes with her. While walking away from home, Betty and Bimbo wind up in a spooky area, and hide in a cave. A ghost walrus--whose gyrations were rotoscoped from footage of Calloway dancing--appears to them, and begins to sing "Minnie the Moocher", with many fellow ghosts following along. After singing the whole number, the ghosts chase Betty and Bimbo all the way back to Betty's home. While Betty is hiding under the covers of her bedsheets, her runaway note is torn up and the remaining letters read "Home Sweet Home."

If you like Betty Boop, then you will love this collection of Betty Boop at her best.
With episodes like Minnie the Moocher and Poor Cinderella, you can't help but smile at every minute. Bimbo makes several appearances to lend a comical hand to the equation.
Two DVDs for under $25 bucks is a pretty good deal.
