When Nick Jr. swung open its stable of shows to Maggie and the Ferocious Beast, a super-size saddle full of spunk charged in; here's a series so full of lovable kooks it'll forever flatten tired old cartoon conceits for kids 2 to 6. Maggie, based on the mother-son books and starring a 5-year-old dynamo who'll put parents in mind of Peanuts' Frieda minus the primping, sweeps kids into an imaginary oasis alongside polka-dotted pussycat Beast and fussy pig Hamilton Hocks. There they knock around, making friends and figuring life out in these episodes. (In "The Big Duck," a feathered humongo frightens Hamilton and Beast until Maggie sets things right.) The adventures cast spells and the dialogue is smart, but it's the pouring on of personality that puts Maggie's Nowhere Land on the map. This is a crew that'll convert the uninitiated before they can say "great googly-moogly." --Tammy La Gorce

Description

Beastly Picture - Maggie has painted a wonderful portrait of the Beast. When the Beast accidentally ruins the painting, he tries to paint a replacement, but it's very hard to paint with big beastly paws. His artwork sure doesn't fool Maggie, but she loves it just the same. The Big Duck - Who is that big duck in the River of Dreams and why is she following Maggie, Hamilton and the Beast? Hamilton and the Beast are a little scared of her, but Maggie makes friends with the Duck and finds out she just wants to give them a ride across the river. Hamilton's Pet - Hamilton finds a friendly little fish in the River of Dreams and decides to keep him for a pet. He puts Fishy in a baby carriage and takes him for a walk, but Fishy looks very unhappy. Realizing that his pet is homesick, Hamilton decides to take him back go the River and says goodbye. My One and Only Box - Maggie, Hamilton and the Beast are having great fun making snow sculptures and snow angels and throwing snowballs. Hamilton's box makes a very good sled, until it hits a rock and is torn. Hamilton is filled with remorse and sings a sad little song about his beloved box. Maggie eventually saves the day, fixing the tear with one of the Beast's spots. Mr. Shivers - Maggie has a magic snow globe that makes it snow in Nowhere Land. The three friends build a snowman that comes to life as the jovial Mr. Shivers. When the sun comes out, they must escort Mr. Shivers to the top of the Highest Mountain, where it's always snowy and he won't have to worry about melting. The King of Nowhere Land - Maggie's brought a crown to Nowhere Land and Hamilton volunteers to be the king. Once he is crowned, however, he realizes that kings don't get to do anything fun. He finally abdicates to bake some apple pies.

My Kids Love Maggie.......2006-03-09

I have three year old twins - a boy and a girl. both of them love Maggie & the Ferocious Beast. I bought the DVD because Noggin only has the show on once a day. It's funny and lively and colorful. I enjoy it as much as they do.

delightful video for boys and girls.......2003-03-23

Maggie is a girl that both boys and girls can admire. She is kind, intelligent and resourceful. She likes adventures, makes up fun games and helps her friends Hamilton Hocks and The Ferocious Beast; and though Hamilton and Beast don't often see eye-to-eye, Hamilton loves to cook and the Beast loves to eat, so that works out too. The three friends wander through Nowhere Land, a fun place populated with interesting creatures.

This DVD contains six Maggie and the Ferocious Beast adventures: Beastly Picture, where the Beast accidentally destroys a picture Maggie has painted of him; Big Duck, about judging someone -- say, a big duck -- that you've only just met; Hamilton's Pet, about loving wild creatures without caging them; My One and Only Box, about Hamilton's security issues; Mr. Shivers, about the friends' snowman acquaintance and their magical snowglobe; and King of Nowhere Land, about the rights and responsibilities of leadership -- it's lonely at the top!

Each of these charming stories is 7-1/2 to 8-1/2 minutes long. You can play them individually or choose to play them all in succession. Audio is in English or Spanish, and subtitles are available in English (a nice feature for early readers). There are also several trailers for other DVDs.

While the episodes are absolutely wonderful, it would have been nice to get some information about the voice talent. Also, instead of just a cover sheet with episodes listed, why not insert some puzzles or stories for kids?

Preschool and toddler boys and girls will enjoy these tales of adventure, and they will see some entertaining lessons about friendship. Very well done indeed.

My daughter loves the series but..........2007-05-15

When it arrived the video box was in French, not English. I sent it back and am still waiting for resolution. The shipper says it is common for videos to be in both French on one side and English on the other and I should have kept it and reversed the liner????? I did not want to open something first and then try to send it back. It was sent with no explanation of what to do.
I do have another Maggie and the Ferocious Beast video that my daughter loves but we bought it elsewhere. I'm going to consider it a loss as I doubt I will get any resolution with this. I will update this if I get this resolved. It was shipped through Inet Video.

A must for Dina Meyer fans.......2003-02-21

This movie was very good. With an A actor in the lead it could have been released in the theaters. (Peter Dodson) did a fine job as an under cover agent that is compromised and must hide from the bad guys until the trial. He goes stir crazy while stuck in the boonies and his boss sends out (Dina Meyer) to keep him company. I am still not sure why a civilian was sent up there, but ignoring that part of the story line and the movie picks up.
Of course the bad guys find out where he is hiding and they send up two assasins to get him. (Francesco Quinn) a hit man from the old country and (John Polito) a semi retired mob hit man. The bantering between these two hit men on the way to Califorina, and ther obvious lack of experionce with the country make this a must see movie.
Don't let the cover fool you. Dina Meyer never wears any thing resembling the outfit on the cover. The acting in this is very good though and makes this a movie you could watch more than once. Much better than most of the straight to vidio fare.

Good, Solid, Airplane Disaster Movie.......2005-03-31

The plot is simple. A disgruntled ex-husband sabotages a plane his ex-wife and new husband are on as if to say "If I can't have her, no one will" with a bio-chemical bomb he placed on board. Good, tense, solid airplane disaster movie that somewhat shadows the 1966 TV-Movie "Doomsday Flight" with real hard edge-of-your-seat suspense. A fine addition to the "library" of airplane disaster movies. Don't miss this one!!

its great.......2002-08-23

I love this movie. It is a sensible thriller because there actually is a plot and everything in this movie is a part of it.
This is not a thriller with guts and gore to make you disgusted,
everything make sense I reccomend this movie to people who liked Speed, Mission Impossible 1, Virtical Limit and The Pelican Brief. I hope You enjoy this movie.

its great.......2002-08-23

Excellent!.......2001-05-21

A real sleeper, this one. While channel surfing one night, I chanced upon "Nowhere To Land," and thought, "Yeah, right--another TBS yawner." Five minutes later I was making myself comfortable, and knew that I'd not be going anywhere for awhile. This movie works, the casting is super, and this writing and acting come together beautifully.
