Schoolhouse Rock: Earth Review

Those of you like me, who grew up in the 70's, watching Saturday morning tv, know the original School House Rock. These are part of Pop culture, an icon of the 70's and early 80's. When I saw this new SHR EARTH, it intrigued me, so I bought it. I was quite surprized when I watched it. The songs were very catchy,and the animation was great. I was glad to see that alot of the original writers, producers, singers, etc had a part in the new segments. Are the new SHR cartoons preachy, well some I guess, but hey, its for a new generation now. We grew up on the originals, and they will always be near and dear to my heart, but the new SHR is for a new generation, its a new world. Its not the 70's or 80's anymore. Lets give the new SHR a chance, and say thank you to the original people who have brought us SHR over the years, back then, and now..

Awesome DVD, even years later. - J. WOOD - TN USA
We purchased this DVD when it first came out and still, years later, it is mesmerizing to my now seven-year-old child. It is both education and entertaining. After watching it, I find myself singing the tunes... "You gotta S-A-V-E the O-C-E-A-N..." You can't go wrong with this one.

Complete propaganda, not to metion its based on non-science - Kay Hutchington - Washington DC
No way my kids get to watch this. The labeling on the rear should be enough. This is an indoctrination video, not educational, I feel a little sick that this and other videos like it are out there. Don't insult your own intelligence. The original series is absolutely fantastic, to this day I remember every lesson. I hope that the same effect doesn't happen with the new video with modern video. The animation and 'lessons' are nowhere near as good, however, so I doubt it, not to mention the government school program teaches kids to have an ultra short-term memory anyway, hence most Columbia grad students can't tell you who the Speaker of the House is....

Music and knowledge in one - R. Day - Dale, TX United States
Schoolhouse Rock: Earth

My 5 year old was absorbed in the music and enjoyed the program. I didn't get to watch the whole thing. The parts I did see were animated polar bears singing about their concerns for global warming. There were songs about conserving water and energy. Catchy songs and even tho the animation is somewhat dated the message is delivered in a way that is entertaining. I hope to be able to sit down and enjoy it soon.

A School clasic Poisonedwith Propaganda - HarryRfromNE - North Shore area of MA, USA
Theyt should have left the classic show free of liberal propaganda instead of ruining the memory with slanted, unsound nonsense. The original had no slant as far as I remember. It just taught things that we could agree with. Now, they go and push the Al Gore line.
Please investigate this issue beyond the usual media/Hollywood/slanted 'science'. [...]

There are great books to expose the agenda and assertions in and behind this movement.
