Teletubbies - The Magic Pumpkin and Other Stories

This is a great Teletubbies video with some laugh-out-loud silly moments and some touchingly beautiful moments, as well. There are some points of this video that make me realize how Zen the Teletubbies are and how wonderful it is that they have no hidden agendas; they simply enjoy life. La La feels like taking a walk and asks sleepy Dipsy to join her and when Dipsy says, "no", there's no offense taken; La La simply says, "okay" and happily goes on her way. There's a beautiful live action sequence where a guy takes a bunch of kids out to the forest to catch falling leaves. Dipsy trying to figure out how to get his hat back from the pumpkin is downright funny. This is a great show for both my toddler and his mama.

I'm in Australia and when I visited my granddaughter in June this was another of her favourite Teletubbies! When my grandkids moved to the US from Australia for a couple of years they missed their favourite shows on TV. However, the DVDs I purchased from Amazon have come to the rescue (as well the DVDs of their favourite shows from 'Down Under" which I sent".

Grandson likes it....that's what matters/

fun dvd with good bonus features i like the live action scenes and that scene with the pumpkin i realy enjoyed it

It's amazing to me that this alleged kids troop of televisions in furry jump suits still gets people going. Doesn't anyone realize that our kids should be watching less tv? Don't parents understand that kids who see big furry creatures with televisions as their stomachs will want to watch television more. Shouldn't we be getting our kids to use their imaginations? ALl rhetorical questions, I know, but please. We want to encourage our children to think, not to tune in and tune out.

Mom son really enjoys watching the Teletubbies. This video is one of his favorites. It came on time and in wonderful condition. He can't wait to get more!

My 2-year old granddaughter and I are great fans of the Teletubbies. Their programs on PBS and their video tapes which we have previously acquired bring continuous pleasure. However, in The Magic Pumpkin the producer/creators of things Teletubbian have bombed out. There is seemingly endless repetition of unstimulating sequences of foliage being attached to a pumpkin in vain attempts to decorate it. In addition to producing some very unattractive results it is repeated past the point tolerable even by a 2-year old. Worse still, when the pumpkin is delivered to Teletubby Land, the Tubbies never actually have contact with it. This is frustrating to the children who identify themselves with the Tubbies because they, the kids, are deprived of the vicarious experience of interacting the the pumpkin. Save your children and yourselves from this one. Spend your money elsewhere.

Great video!
