Five stars.

I know little of the "proper" Tarzan. I didn't care for any of the Hollywood films, but I frequently found myself looking forward to watching this Filmation animation when it was shown on the BBC after school hours - 40 years ago! Filmation's Tarzan is a fine figure of a man who has mutual respect for animals and an intelligence that knows how to right the wrongs he encounters, in short - a hero. and they don't come much better!

A great trip down memory lane. I've been a Tarzan fan for as long as I can remember and this animated series is possibly the closest to Burroughs original books as you can get. Whilst the animation is a bit basic, it is still good and the stories more than make up for it. Foreign release, but plays perfectly well in English with no tricky menues to wade through.

This cartoon series is brilliant I grew up in this era and I loved watching this cartoon on Saturday morning shows and the kids would love these cartoon now it's the original cartoon back in the 70s and you can sit down and watch it over and over again

I know this animation series is over 40 years old but it could have been digitally remastered like the Filmation Flash Gordon series. The first episode "Tarzan and the City of Gold" has two permanent vertical white lines running through out the episode, very annoying and spoils the viewing.

I have loved this cartoon about tarzan all my life , so glad it's available on dvd.

Excellent grandson enjoyed hours looking at the video. Good value

Please bring out season 2 quickly as a must for any Tarzan fan
