VHS Movie Reviews of Wishbone in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow [VHS]

Movie Review: Wishbone Legend of Sleepy Hollow VHS Review
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm a collector by nature, and the stories I love---like Legend of Sleepy Hollow---I make a point of collecting its movie counterparts. this and "Night of the Headless Horseman" are my two favorites in this collection---not that there's anything wrong with Bing Crosby's rendition, of course.

Movie Review: Wishbone: Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Summary: 5 Stars

Wishbone is a jack russell terrier who imagines himself as different characters in literature. In this story, he imagines himself as the schoolteacher Ichabod Crane. Each of the wishbone stories has two parts. In one part wishbone daydreams about being a character in literature, and in the other part his owner, Joe Talbot goes thru adventures of his own with his friends, and of course, Wishbone. This is another of my favorites. It defintely teaches kids about literature, and of course, having a cute little dog helps.

Movie Review: wishbone is the best show ever and forever!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

wishbone is great why didn't they keep the show on longer the shows in the 90's treated kids like they were smarter but now it's almost like the new kids shows are trying to make a whole new generation stupid because they dance and sing about people being "friends"

Movie Review: WISHBONE BECOMES ICHABOD CRANE
Summary: 5 Stars

When my 13 year old was young, Wishbone was one of his favorite TV shows. We now have a 2 1/2 year old and I'm glad we saved our old video tapes since the show is no longer on. Wishbone is a cute little Jack Russell Terrier. Our neighbors have one just like him so my little one thinks he's the one on the tape and loves to watch them all. They are fun, imaginative and kids just love dogs.

In this version of Washington Irving's classic early American ghost story, Wishbone steps into play Ichabod Crane, the nervous school teacher who comes to Sleepy Hollow. The producers did a good job of capturing the look of early colonial America and you know the budgets sure were not very big for these shows. This is a good way for kids to learn about this classic story without having quite the frights of the actual story or theatrical versions.

The fact that my little one loves Halloween and all things scary even make this more of a treat. Just wonderful!

Movie Review: Wishbone in the terrifying tale of Ichabod Crane
Summary: 5 Stars

If you are wondering why this "Wishbone" adventure is entitled "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" rather than something cute like the rest of the episodes, then you might be interested to know that this was originally broadcast in the fall of 1997 as a prime-time special in time for Halloween. In it, the Jack Russell terrier with the vivid imagination imagines himself to be Ichabod Crane in the Washington Irving classic. Yes, this particular episode is faithful enough to the original that it might prove too scary for the small fry, but Wishbone is clearly aimed at elementary students/pre-teens (i.e., kids who would reasonably be expected to be able of reading some, but clearly not all, of these books). Even if you just judge this video in terms of Irving's original story, it is an above-average effort; reminds me a lot of "Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol," where you are surprised how effective comic characters can be when they take something seriously. The show tried to up the ante for their first hour-long effort and I think they succeeded admirably.
