My Thoughts:

Savannah is a huge Thomas the Tank and Bob the Builder fan, so it was great to have a DVD which included both of these characters on one disc.  She has tried to watch Fireman Sam, but just can't get into it.  I even tried playing of the Fireman Sam episodes from this DVD, but she wasn't having it, and asked for Thomas.  So, unfortunately, I can't speak on the two Fireman Sam episodes.

As for the two episodes each of Thomas & Friends and Bob the Builder, Savannah was in her glory watching these.  She was front and in center in the living room, sitting on her lounge chair, sipping her water and snacking on goldfish crackers.  What a life, huh?  I thought so as I watched her enjoying these short animated episodes, which lasted about 10 minutes each.  Each episode was long enough to keep her engaged and entertained.  It was hard to say which episodes of Thomas & Friends and Bob the Builder she liked the most, as she couldn't stop dancing and babbling, as she watched each one.

So, if you have a Fireman Sam, Bob the Builder and/or Thomas & Friends fan in your house, this new DVD release would make a great addition to your family's DVD library.  It has kept Savannah entertained during these past few days of constant rain here on the East Coast, and will provide many more hours of enjoyment with future viewing.
