Great video - Rating: 5/5
My 4 year old daughter absolutely loves Fireman Sam. We could not find it anywhere at our local Target or Toy R Us...thank goodness for Amazon.
Review from www.firrkids.com - Rating: 5/5
Everyone's favorite firefighter is back with five great new episodes! As usual, Fireman Sam and his trusty crew have their hands full helping the citizens of Pontypandy. I find it surprising that this is the only firefighter themed children's show on the air today. Aren't scads of little boys fascinated with fire trucks and rescue? With such a limited selection, we should be glad Fireman Sam is so entertaining!
There are several aspects that make this series particularly appealing. There's a great foreign humor (this is a Welsh production) alive here that is very different from our typical U.S. cartoons. The characters are all lovable (and troublesome) small town people with lovable personalities and funny catchphrases that never fail to deliver some action.
No job is too big or too small for these brave firefighters. Sam and the rest of the firefighters help out by teaching the local kids about camping safety and helping a friend in need who cannot swim. Of course, troublesome Norman creates creates some trouble by trying to show off. While trying to rescue Rosa the Cat Rosa from the tree, Norman winds up getting stuck alongside her, and the fire brigade has to rescue them both.
Great for kids who love Firemen! - Rating: 5/5
I bought this as a Christmas gift for my cousin's little boy who loves firemen and it was the perfect alternative to buying a toy truck. He never left the TV when we put it on after opening presents that day. Very cute video.
Perfect for 4-year-old boys - Rating: 4/5
My son got this from Santa. In the last three weeks, I can't count the number of times he's watched it. He laughs and laughs at things only he recognizes as funny. Personally, I think the Norman character is unrealistically naughty, and really, all the characters are one-dimensional which is why I only gave it four stars. But when you're 4, I guess it doesn't matter, so he'd give it five stars.
Great DVD - Rating: 5/5
My 2 and 3 year old sons watch this DVD all the time. The firefighters are from Wales, and they rescue the local residents. The stories show a tight knit community, and different ways the fire department helps a neighborhood. Great DVD.
