Showcasing the episodes in the three-segment form as they originally aired, these stellar retro hits soar through space and time to deliver justice! First, intergalactic policeman Space Ghost navigates the cosmos in his tricked-out spaceship The Phantom Cruiser battling villains like Brak and Zorak with his legendary suit and powerful wristbands. Then, Dino Boy teams with caveman Ugh and dinosaur Bronty to go primeval on the ancient menaces of their primitive home. And finally, Space Ghost flies again with more extraterrestrial adventures and thrilling takedowns. This dynamite compilation also features the dynamic six-part Space Ghost episode The Council of Doom. It's cosmic entertainment for all!

Summary: great
Comment: my kids want to see this every day. that tells you about how interesting this story is for little kids. you always have one story about space ghost, and the following would be one about dino boy. 2 different worlds, one up in the space and the other back in the dino time. very interesting for kids

Summary: The first and greatest superhero from Hanna-Barbera
Comment: As Hanna-Barbera created the action/adventure genre for cartoons in the 1960s with JONNY QUEST, SPACE GHOST set it off for their superhero line. The voice acting is classic, and the character designs by Alex Toth stands the test of time. The DINO BOY shorts are watchable, too, but SPACE GHOST sets it off. The COUNCIL OF EVIL arc closed out the first season nicely, not to mention introduces three other series from the H-B line that, God willing, Warner Bros. DVD will release sometime in the near future:
HERCULOIDS
SHAZZAN!
MOBY DICK & THE MIGHTY MIGHTOR
Until then, I will have to seek out the bootlegs on iOffer.com. Let's hope that some exec at Warner Bros. home video division will get wise and release these other gems by H-B and Alex Toth in its restored glory, with extras and commentary to boot.

Summary: Bring It All Back - Starting to get it right.
Comment: I was thrilled when I heard that Birdman and Space Ghost were being released - with all episodes complete. Some have not been overtly thrilled by the packaging but seriously who cares? Be happy that these are being released! Space Ghost holds up well (as do the other great Hanna-Barbera cartoons of the era)and you have to watch them in their context. The price is right - great value for money; much better than some other retro stuff that comes out ridiculously priced AND not always complete. (I love the way they call some of those releases 'definitive').
Let's hope that we see like-releases of Herculoids, Shazzan, etc. Bring it all back - hopefully they're starting to get it right: complete episodes, simple packaging and low cost.

Summary: Just as I remember the series being!
Comment: What can you say about a 1960's cartoon series? Well, the title says it all.."It is just as I remember." What that means is it is a fun and simple series that does not pretend to be anything more than Saturday morning entertainment. I have purchased this series as well as the original Jonny Quest series (excellent,btw) and found them both to be very enjoyable. If you remember watching Space Ghost as a child, then I have no trouble telling you to purchase the DVD set.
