"Fair warning to fans of the classic Fleisher/Famous Studios Popeye cartoons-Look elsewhere! These Popeye shorts were from "The All-New Popeye Hour" by Hanna-Barbera, and don't have the same punch of the older series (Pun intended). This DVD is not recommended for Popeye purists."
Not the REAL Popeye!!

"I bought this thinking of the old great cartoons of my childhood, but alas these are later ones.I suggest the "70 Years of Popeye" for the real deal!"
Entertaining Popeye

"This is a batch of Popeye TV-cartoons from Hanna Barbera's "All New Popeye Hour". They could no longer feature Popeye and Bluto slugging it out. Despite that, the animation is fine and the scripts are entertaining. It's true, they're not the ol' Popeye that most people remember (and want to see on home video) but they are entertaining."

"These cartoons are typical of late-1970s Hanna-Barbera TV output: cheap, poorly-animated, and horribly hampered by ridiculous network standards and practices. They stink."
