I finally broke down and ordered the last Hanna-Barbera superhero DVD set. It's the oddball combination of these two shows, Space Kiddettes and Young Samson. There are reasons for them being paired together, so I supposed that if you know why, it makes sense. These were the only two H-B cartoons sponsored by General Mills. All the rest were from the Jay Ward/Total Cartoons studio, so these two shows got paired with them in syndication. I had the Samson episodes in fairly good quality from the VHS tapes I recorded in the 90s, and then transferred those to DVDr. Space Kidettes I was never that interested in, but I am glad to have the set now, as they have gotten cheaper.
This set was one of the first they released on demand, so it's four discs and 10 episodes per disc. You would think they might re-author them, but it's OK. I think only Thundarr, Valley of the Dinosaurs and this one have those lack of menus. Space Kiddettes I would have liked as a young kid, and appreciate the humor and voice acting now.
