[Phillip Chapman]

Columbia Tri-Star has announced that they will be releasing the Jim Henson produced, "Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss" on DVD.

The exact title of the disc is "The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss: The Cat's Playhouse". It will be 72 minutes long and will be released on October 21st.

Wubbulous aired on Nickelodeon in the US for several years in the mid-nineties.

You know, I was going to say, "gee that's a random product to release," but with the live action Cat In the Hat movie coming out this Thanksgiving, it makes perfect sense.

Finally I'll get a chance to see this show and check out the work of those who have become some of the more prominent Henson performers today. Sounds like there'll be 3 episodes included, I'll look forward to it!

I'll look forward to it!

Me too. I don't know if I will get it when it comes out, but this IS something I have wanted to see for a long time.

I remember Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss! That was actually a pretty good show :)

[Phillip Chapman]

By the way the suggested list price on this DVD is only $9.95. It is also possible there may be more of them.

For those of you who saw the series a few years ago on TV, what did you like about it? Any particular stories that you hope are included on the DVD?

[Erine81981]

I liked the stories w/ Horcse the Elephant and his Baby and the Kangaroo characters and the Cat A, B, C and Z. Is that all the Cats that appeared on the show or were there other Cat letter hats on there? I can't remember expect the ones I named.

I love that Show, Athony Asberry Was Great At Yurtle The Turtle,
Thought I like the old show before they decided to aim the show at preschoolers. Though The New school As a little bit good, Plus My Friend Marty Robinson Did The Cat In The Hat. Who's The Guy Who Did The Hat in The Hat Before ? :)

my sister used to watch that show when it was on she loved it i didn't

A BArgain book store got a bunch of videos in a while back, sold them for 5 bucks, I believe... I meant to get one to see it, but I didn't.


I have a couple Wubbulous Grinch Christmas Orniments, though...

:rolleyes: Well, it looks like the Wubbulous World episodes that are coming on DVD are from the FAR inferior 2nd season... since it does have the "Cat's Playhouse" in the title. Is there ANY chance of seeing those wonderfully "wubbulous" 1st season episodes... EVER???

Here's some more info on the upcoming Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss DVD. It will include the following episodes:

The Cat in the Hat Cleans Up His Act
When the Cat in the Hat loses his bow tie in his very messy Cat’s Playhouse, it’s cleaning time!

The Cat in the Hat’s Indoor Picnic
In the Cat’s Playhouse, rain spoils plans for a picnic, but the cat saves the day.

The Cat in the Hat’s Big Birthday Surprise
It’s Terrence’s birthday, and he thinks that everyone in the Cat’s Playhouse has forgotten.

Unfortunately, I never saw this show. Don't know why, either. But I'll definately buy this when it's released; just to continue the quest to complete my Henson DVD collection :)

To those who may still be looking for this title, I found it today in the "Famous" Walmart 5.88 Bin, along with The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland!! This was the Walmart in Union City CA, and they had plenty of copies of both in the bin, so if you're looking check your Walmarts!!

I could have gotten these for less if I got them at the Bargain store I mentioned...
