Movie synopsis
The captivating children's animated tale from the UK, THOMAS & FRIENDS, portrays the adventures and mishaps of a talking locomotive named Thomas the Tank Engine. Joined by friends Henry, Gordon, and James (who come in all shapes and sizes), Thomas works the rail lines on a fictional island called Sodor. The show teaches children about the world of train engineering and how transportation troubles are resolved through the spirit of teamwork. In "Edward and Gordon," for example, poor Edward feels older and not as powerful as the other trains, but learns he is better than they are at going uphill. Or in "Thomas and the Trucks," Thomas wants to fill in for Edward by pulling his trucks, but gets in hot water when he realizes the load is too much for him. Ex-Beatle Ringo Starr provides Thomas's voice for all these episodes.

Thomas & Friends - The Early Years DVD Collection

Review For: Thomas & Friends - The Early Years (DVD, 2004, 3-Disc Set)

This is a great addition to any Thomas and Friends DVD collection. I found that by watching the early episodes, a lot of the foundation to the series is explained and set-up. Ringo Starr is a great narrator, this is a great DVD set. Some of the stories are the same as episodes that have been re-narrated by George Carlin or Alec Baldwin, but as a collection they all gel better than the random bits that one gets by watching Sprout or otherwise. This is far and away my sons favorite Thomas DVD.

A must-have for all Thomas the Tank Engine Fans

What Sean Connery was to James Bond, Ringo Star was to Thomas the Tank Engine. Ringo was the best story narrator by far. Even George Carlin didn't compare! The early stories were simpler too and more about the day-to-day adventures of being a train. I'd go so far as to say that this 3 DVD set is the best Thomas DVD package there is.

Happy Trails!

Thomas & Friends - The Early Years (2004,DVD)

Review For: Thomas & Friends - The Early Years (DVD, 2004, 3-Disc Set)

I bought this for my four young grandsons. They LOVE Thomas and it is a special treat at Noni's house to watch a video. Thomas is always entertaining, holds their attention and has a good lesson to learn at the end of each story. Also entertaining for me to hear Ringo Starr, George Carlin and Alec Baldwin reading the stories in the different Thomas and Friends DVD's.

Essential addition to your collection

Review For: Thomas & Friends - The Early Years (DVD, 2004, 3-Disc Set)

In my opinion, Ringo Starr was the best narrator for the Thomas series. My son loves Thomas and can watch this same set of stories day after day without complaint. He loves the new ones as well, but he actually was introduced to Thomas with the early shows, so they are his favorite.

Great!

Review For: Thomas & Friends - The Early Years (DVD, 2004, 3-Disc Set)

I bought this dvd set b/c my nephew loves thomas. He couldn't love these videos more. It's great for keeping him occupied when I'm cleaning or studying or keeping him occupied while I make his lunch.
