Prodcut Description: [More Information ...]
For those not familiar with the popular Nickelodeon TV series and the phenomenally successful Scholastic book series by K.A. Applegate, Animorphs centers on the adventures of five teens who can morph into animals and bugs. They battle the Yeerks, a frightful mercenary alien race (slimy, sluglike, gray-green, and the size of a rat) who want to control humans by entering their ears and taking over human minds. Don't dismiss Animorphs as a sci-fi Saved by the Bell. The acting is surprisingly topnotch and the stories are fun and thrilling. Animorphs: The Invasion Series, Part 1--The Invasion Begins introduces friends and morphers Jake (Shawn Ashmore), Rachel (Brooke Nevin), Marco (Boris Cabrera), Cassie (Nadia Nascimento), and Tobias (Christopher Ralph). Three episodes from the TV series, "My Name Is Jake," parts 1 and 2, and "The Underground," reveal how the Animorphs learn to use their gift and uncover the Yeerk plan. Part of the nasty alien plot is to acquire as many human controllers (those possessed by Yeerks) as possible. And despite the darkness of story, there's a sense of humor, too: one of the human controllers is the high school principal. For ages 6 and up. --N.F. Mendoza

My name is Jake...
...and in this TV series, I have been reduced to a jock with a really gay looking haircut. Remember my cool friend Marco? Remember how in the books he always had the coolest sounding lines, a la Cancer Man from The X Files? Well here, his one liners put Mr. Freeze to shame. All of my friends have been messed around with in the worst sense too- Remember that uber villain Visser Three? He's a bald idiot who also looks really gay, putting Rob Halford to shame. Remember Rachel and my beautiful girlfriend Cassie? Remember how both of them were smart, stand-up girls in the books? Well now they've been converted to bimbos by the idiot writers. Oh, and Ax, the very odd but cool alien dude? Well now he's been reduced to a bumbling idiot whom between him and I, has a homoerotic banter going on.
Nevermind what the books tell you, this show is the real truth about us! Just beware of Scholastic, who has the ability to take your book series and turn it into a bad show. You've been warned. ARG
They NEED to put this on DVD, already! I used to watch this on Nick and I would like to see it again. They need to do that to 100 Deeds for Eddie McDowd, also! ummmm
I only saw like two shows, but theese are nothing compared to the awsome books! I wish they copied the books axactly and got better acters, then i'd be worth it! Animorphs The Invasion Series pt. 1, The Incasion Begins!
I am a really big Animorphs fan, and to tell you the truth, this show sucked compared to the book series. A lot of the books' story's were meshed into one, making an akward episode. Also they left us at a cliffhanger point!
!They practically made this show right out of a stupid dream! Not as good as the books, but it's still good.
This three episode vhs contains some of the best episodes of the t.v show. "The first three." The show is no where near as good as the books. I only wished that they had made a CGI animorphs show or something. The lack of fighting is the only thing lacking in this. Other than that the caracters are portrayed farly well and the differences from the book are tollerated. I own every one of the books and have read them all. I've seen all of the episodes in the series as well. And I own all four of the VHS tapes. I've also taped nearly every episode in ther series,but I am missing 3. I wish they would realese the full season one and season two onto DVD. I would buy it the day it came out. With all of the other DVD sets coming out I'm hoping that this one will be released soon.
