TV on DVD Review of the Week: Care Bears: Grizzle-Ly Adventures

Care Bears: Grizzle-Ly Adventures is the most recent Care Bears movie release. This DVD has two new episodes of the new Care Bears TV Show that airs on CBS on Saturday mornings. The DVD may not have any special features, but it does have good original episodes that have not been shown on television yet.
Care Bears: Adventures in Care-a-Lot is the improved animated come back of the Care Bears. This DVD can be enjoyed by both the new generation of Care Bear fans and old fans of the Original Care Bears, however some old time Care Bear fans that have not been following the new series on television do appear to be confused about Oopsy Bear. For those who are confused about Oopsy Bear, then you really should first check out the Oopsy Does It Care Bears Movie, which I believe was the first movie done with the Care Bears animation look, i.e. CGI.
The two episodes on this DVD are Emma’s Dilemma and Broken. In Emma’s Dilemma a human character is brought into the show and the Care Bears befriend her as she helps the Care Bears find their lost items that Grizzle had stolen. The style of this episode with a human girl in some ways connects to how the old Care Bears series used to help animated kids learn to care in the plots. In Broken the robot, Wingnut, is broken and Share ends up causing trouble for the Care Bears by enlisting Grizzle to fix the robot instead of her sharing part of her necklace for Grumpy to fix him.
