I remember watching Faerie Tale Theatre as a child and in my opinion some of them were awesome and some were OK. I remember my parents renting them for me and my brother and watching them on TV. I watched all of them as a child, but only a few stuck in my mind over the years. My favorites: Rapunzel, Rumplestiltskin, Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel & Gretel, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, The Three Little Pigs, Jack and the Beanstalk & Pinocchio.
I liked the other tales as well, but we all have our favorites. The actors are amazing. This show came out when I was two years old and I didn't know who any of these actors were. I just loved watching them. Looking back, all of the stars were very well known at that time and today, some are still famous, while others sadly died but are legends we will never forget.
I have to admit that the special effects and props are a little cheesy. They didn't have the special effects and technology back in the early 80's that we have today but everyone involved in this classic series did an amazing job making all of the tales come to life. This didn't stop me from enjoying them as a child and now as an adult.
I was in shock to find out that all twenty six episodes were released in a DVD collectors set last year. I just had to have them for me and for my unborn child due this summer. I am glad that I came across this set. Now I can enjoy them again and I hope my child enjoys them as much as I did one day. If you get a chance and want to get a taste of your childhood, watch them. If not, I think you are missing out. Enjoy!!
