Beetlejuice: The Complete Series
Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! I Love This DVD Set!
This set does not have any extras. What it does have is the complete series of a well written and funny cartoon! I watched this on Saturday mornings, and I am now watching through them all with my children! Well, my ten year old fell in love and didn't want to stop! I thought the video looked great on my hi definition TV!
Though I know I should be wary,
Still I venture someplace scary;
Ghostly hauntings I turn loose....
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!

Worth It If You Grew Up Watching The Show
As is already established, this does run on the expensive side for a cartoon that's over 20 years old. I bought it anyway, because I used to watch it all the time, and did not think this would be a very hot seller so who knows how long it will be available for.
Without any extras, and the range of quality for the digital transfers of the episodes go from "poor" to "meh." Anybody expecting digital restorations will be disappointed, some of the episodes look like they were transferred straight from an old VHS tape. If this wasn't an official product, I would think it was a bootleg.
Otherwise though, you do get a lot of cartoons to watch, and if you were into BJ then you'll like it anyway. I'm not sure how much kids today would care for it today... Watching it today its definitely a little cheesier than I remember, and you realize how much the music repeats...but it is what it is.
For $80, I think they could have done better, the quality would have...
BeetleJuice BeetleJuice BeetleJuice!
Thank you Shout Factory! you guys have come through again with releasing one of my favorite cartoons shows from my childhood, Beetlejuice. I love this show and I'm glad that its a complete series release which means no waiting for season/volumes releases or stalled releases because of poor sales. I wish that older shows would just be released in complete series sets and then release complete seasons that way all the episodes can be released.
