My Pet Monster review

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This DVD set contains all 13 episodes (16 if you count the episodes that are split up) of the 1980s Saturday morning cartoon series on two discs.



The show follows Monster who lives with a boy named Max. When Monster wears his handcuffs, they turn him into a stuffed animal. Max often does this as a way to maintain the secret of Monster's existence from others. Max's sister, Jill, and friend, Chuckie, are the only ones that know this secret. The two main adversaries in the show are Mr. Hinkle, a neighbor who always thinks Max is up to something, but isn't sure quite sure what, and Beastur, a large monster who hates light and wants to bring Monster back to Monster Land.



I thought the picture quality was as good as most 1980s cartoon sets. I still enjoyed watching the episodes after all these years. I think a lot of today's children would enjoy the show as well. The only negative of this set is that it doesn't have any extras. If you bought the Canadian release of a year ago, this set is the same except for slightly different packaging.
