Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) After watching all of the "Star Wars" films, I am now in a "Star Wars" kick! Then after watching a few episodes on YouTube I loved this show; also the new CGI series "The Clone Wars". And besides I love the Ewoks, they are cute. Anyway, this series starts in a time before the events in "The Return of The Jedi", and follows the adventures of the Ewok named Wickett (who's from the film) and his friends, as they face many dangers in their world of Endor.I really like the relationship between Kneesaa and her papa Chirpa. I mean, when Chirpa became a widow and believed that his older daughter Asha was missed, he chose his only child Kneesaa (until Asha's return) to be his heiress, teaching her all his job. This double familiarity (between father-and-only-child and master-and-apprentice) made Kneesaa very close with her father. You know, the episode where Kneessa finds Asha is one of my favorites. Also, I think the first series was much better than the second series that was made later on. So that is all I have to say, and I really love this series.

bmartin2000 This and "Droids" are both good cartoons for kids. I enjoyed them growing up & while I am glad they released something of them on DVD, I am a little disappointed that Lucasfilm did not just release a box set of the complete series. I think trying to make them into "features" by editing 4 episodes together is a big mistake. It's a lot harder to pop 1 in for 30 minutes. Personally I miss that the original goofy opening is not available (even as a special feature) on the DVD. However it is still nice to finally have something of them available to show the kids. The best thing about these cartoons is that they are targeted for the younger kids, and every episode centers around some character trait like responsibility, making new friends, etc. They concentrate on what character development would be for a 5 to 10 year old, and they keep violent confrontations to a minimum, even when the Ewoks are challenged by the witch or the Duloks.While I remember the second season of Ewoks being far less enjoyable than the first, it is still 1000 times better than the drivel served up by the likes of today's after school mainstays: Pokemon & yu-gi-oh. It seems every kid show these days is trying to sell junky cards or is targeted for older teens. There are very few real kid shows (like this one) available. I WISH Lucasfilm would release a real box set of this series while my kids are still young enough to enjoy them.

waiching liu Right after the success of the Star Wars trilogy- Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of The Jedi, amid the 80s cartoon phenomenon, two back to back cartoon spin-offs of Star Wars was released and shown on TV on the back of this franchise- the first being Droids starring the duo of android C3PO, and R2 D2 and this, Ewoks, after their initial appearance in Return of The Jedi.Whereas in the film, the Ewoks are portrayed as being cute and cuddly, they also couldn't speak in actual English dialogue and so for us audiences it was impossible to translate and make out what they were saying, apart from the characters in Return of the Jedi. Here in the cartoon series, they can talk properly and whilst some may argue that this is just too cutesy to be taken seriously as a cartoon, Ewoks was an interesting-yet likable and inventive show.The furry creatures all have a range of different personality and character traits, not to mention that appearance-wise, each one was different from the other Ewok.What this show has successfully done is manage to turn the Ewoks- of whom were non-communicative via dialogue terms- into a bunch of talkative and expressive, peace-loving species with human feelings and emotions. The stories were diverse and cute, not to mention entertaining as well. The show also had two theme songs- the first was just horrid, whilst the second was simple-yet a massive improvement over the first.In all, Ewoks is a great little cartoon series that the whole family can enjoy. It might not be to every Star Wars fan's tastes- depending on how much you love or loathe them especially in Return of the Jedi, but for those who wish to see a completely different, and may I add superior side and treatment to the Ewoks, then you might want to give this a try.Personally, I liked it and preferred this more to Droids, even though that was a good effort as well

blackarachnia2 I remember watching this show as a 9 year old child and never getting bored with it. Watching an animated version of the Ewoks was a mainstay at our house. I never had the stuffed Ewok toys so this was the next best thing. I remember an episode where Wicket and Wigi's dad was struck down by a blue plant and the episode where Teebo became Morag The Tulgah Witch's apprentice. But that's about all I can remember. This show was so much fun but it's too bad that it only lasted 1 season. It was the only reason why I woke up on Saturday mornings since a lot of the shows that I usually woke up for were either canceled or in rerun mode.
