Christmas Classic!!!.......2007-01-09
I bought this DVD for my mother as an anniversary present just before Thanksgiving last year. She hasn't stopped watching it since! I'm twenty six yrs old myself and haven't seen it since I was a little girl!!! At its core, the video is an excellent reminder of childhood memories coupled with the underlying, but nonetheless prominent message of the season's real meaning!!! Definitely worth the money!!!
Santa and the three bears.......2007-01-09
I was expecting the classic I watched as a kid. It looked as though someone was watching it on T.V and camcorded it with an old camcorder. It looks like a pirated dvd.

Warm Hearted!.......2007-01-13
Santa and the Three Bears is one of the Holidays most warm hearted Christmas specials. If this doesn't get you into the Holiday mood, I believe nothing will.
Wonderful story, very poor production..........2006-12-19
Santa and the three Bears is my all time favorite animated feature that I treasure from childhood. No doubt, this is thee program that I must watch each and every Christmas season, and has become treasured by my children as well. In 1987 I taped this program that aired on television. The colors were deep, rich and clear. The sound was crisp. 19 years later, that tape is well loved (used), and although the tape still maintains those qualities; the tape is starting to show its age. Hence, the search for a commerically produced recording.
I searched and searched for a commerically produced recording, and found one in 2001. Unfortunatly, I could only find a VHS recording. No DVD's were to be found. The tape was good except the begining and the ending of the program that had consisted of real life actors (Mr. Ranger and his grand-daughter and grand-son) had been edited out. This editing left me very disappointed. So, when I saw this DVD and read the comment in the reviews that noted the real life characters in the begining and the ending where included in this DVD I was excited and ordered the item right away.
Yes, the real life actors are included as the other reviewer noted. However, it is extremly unfortunate that the transfer is indescribably bad. The frames jump as if you are watching an old film back in grade school. The sound is very scratchy. The colors fade from rich to dull and some scenes are even blurry. It is very difficult to watch the program because the transfer to DVD is so bad. My 1987 VHS and commerical tape that I have present a far greater quality picture/sound than this DVD.
This story is an awesome story.... 5 stars. However, this transfer... this particular DVD stinks! Please, if you are looking for a good quality transfer of this great Christmas tale... don't buy this one. If you have not had the pleasure of viewing this wonderful story yet, this production will sour your experience. If you are looking to find that DVD of a wonderful childhood experience, this production will leave you disappointed. There are other DVD's of this Christmas classic. I guess we are all still looking for that awesome Santa and the three Bears DVD transfer that includes the real life actors. Until I find it, I'm still using the 'ol VHS version.
Happy searching, but please... don't purchase this item. The poor quality of the transfer will leave you extremely disappointed. I find that other reviewers have offered their higher marks for this DVD because the story is such a great story. The story is great. But the presentation of that great story really stinks! Look to other DVD's of this story.
Simply a Classic, and my favorite!.......2006-12-02
I grew up LISTENING to this video, not watching! I had an old LP that my mom had purchased for me through the Weekly Reader club in the late 1970s. I wore this one out!
I had never seen the movie until the "25 Days of Christmas" on ABC Family in the late 1990s! I found it on Amazon.com a couple of years ago--what a treat to have on DVD. And, yes, the video quality is bad, and the pops and crack in the audio, but I simply don't care. It is, afterall, over 30 years old and only $7. Thrilled to just have it once again.
By the way, for a real treat, search for the LP online...you can find it time to time on auctions. Very nice to have...I'm going to convert mine to CD when I get a record player.
The songs, scenery is very soooothing, warming, and just makes me think of great 70s and early 80s Christmas' of past. I highly recommend as a way of passing down a classic--my nieces love it!
Cute Christmas Video For The Children.......2005-11-28
Taken off the back of video: Two cute, wide-eyed Yellowstone National Park bear cubs, who put off hibernation to wait for a visit from Santa Claus, learn an important lesson about the meaning of the Christmas season from the park's friendly ranger. Video is in color and runs approximately 30 minutes.
Great Movie.......2005-11-27
This is one of my all time favorite Christmas movies. I'm so glad it's available to buy. My brother and I used to watch this movie everytime it aired during the Christmas season when we were kids and even as adults. I now have two kids of my own and I can't wait to let them watch this Christmas Classic. Truly a great family movie for all ages.
Description
Join Mama Bear, her two cubs and Mr. Ranger as they invite us into their world of holiday music. The young bears, refusing to miss the holiday this year, would simply not go into winter hibernation! Mama Bear gets anxious, and Mr. Ranger looks for a solution...this winter, Christmas would come early. With unforgettable story-telling and great animation, this favorite Christmas video is one of the all-time classics.
