teletubbies the magic pumpkin and other stories | Year: 1998 Classification: Children's Video Directed: - Vic Finch - David Hiller Actors/Actresses: - Rolf Saxon The Meaning of Life 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. Halloween With The Teletubbies This is a great production, with age appropriate lessons about seasons. It provides a good Halloween program that's not scary. It teaches please and thank you, and uses a Jack O'Lantern to teach the names of facial features. This video comes with a useful parents' guide. Smiles, laughter, clapping and bouncing by the children were abundant. "I want to watch it again pleeeease." "Now I want to make a pumpkin with leaves and glue." "I liked the way they made the pumpkin face." Best for ages 0 to 2. A disappointment 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.
