8 episodes of Hanna Barbera Godzilla (out of 26 that were made) come to DVD June 6.

Two seperate 1 disc releases will each be 90 minutes long, so I am assuming each disc will have 4 episodes. The specific episodes are not listed.

I love this show. I hope all 26 episodes will eventually be released.

Here's an episode guide:

Here's the article about the DVD releases:

I was so disappointed with this series as a kid. I watched it anyway, but I hated it that they threw away the entire concept of the original. I tried to look at some of them when TNT reran them, but I couldn't get through one.

I'll have to pass on these, but it's nice that they'll be out there for fans.

I used to watch this religously as a kid even though it was on at 7am, but dear lordy if some of those plots sound goofy. A WWII submarine crew trapped in an iceberg is still alive?!

Looks like they're gonna milk these episodes for as much as they can.

I used to watch that show all the time as a kid, but the only episode I remember was the microgodzilla episode. I doubt I could watch it today.

I used to watch the reruns on Cartoon Network and wonder why Gadzookie could fly, but not Godzilla.

Hmm, that /\ makes volumes a little easier to swallow. Maybe I'll pick them up down the road.

Too much junk in the trunk, I think.

Woohoo! At last.

I regard this series as being way more real Godzilla than that clunker we got a few years back.

"Any excuse to have Big G fighting another monster of some description"

Yup it's the real thing alright.

I didn't even mind Godzuki.

The only thing I used to think was "If I was Godzilla I'd sure get pretty fed up with this bunch phoning me up every other day"

The Godzilla Signal is not a bleeper.

It never was explained whether 'zilla just liked them or whether the signaller was more sinister.

The main thing that bothered me was the guy in charge's name was two ranks: Captain, Majors. Is he a Captain or a Major?
