JAM Reviews Shaun the Sheep: Season One from Liongate and HIT Entertainment

"Ewe" can bring it all home as Shaun the Sheep and his crazy pals come to your shelves with the complete Season One DVD set from Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment. From the creators of Wallace and Gromit come 40 full length episodes of Shaun fun. Remember that the US versions only show 5 minute shorts on the Disney channel, but this set contains the full length antics of Shaun, the herd, the pigs, and the rest.

JAM has reviewed portions of this set before as the following releases are a portion of this Season One set including the review of Party Animals and One Giant Leap for Lambkind. Previously, HTZ's own junior reporter joined us for her own video review of Party Animals.

One of the best parts of this set is the extras that are included that let you see behind the scenes at the building of the model pigs, games that are a lot of fun for little kids to play, and videos which can be almost as much fun as the episodes themselves. Check out the press release for more info and grab a handful of wooly good fun with Shaun the Sheep Season One.
