Leslie does the same moves as she does in the Walk Away the Pounds set but uses the stretchie band instead of water weights. I have done all 3 of the workouts and I always feel energized after doing them. The only negative I can come up with is that Leslie simply talks too much. After learning the routine, I always mute the sound and play my own music because I get annoyed by the contant chatter.

I will admit that Leslie seems like a very nice and genuine person and I don't mind her letting you know what steps you are getting ready to do, but the constant banter about how great the "workout buddies" are etc. I get bored with after the first 2 times of doing the workout.

I used Leslie's workout tapes when I was 50 pounds heavier and I hadn't exercised in ages. Her tapes along with healthy eating habits helped me suceed in losing the weight. If Leslie comes out with more sets, and I'm sure she will, I will definately buy them!!!!

Some fans may be disappointed with the way the episode ends, but it is still a wonderful story that makes you feel good and is worth the money.

Fans of Little House will love these two sentimental favorite episodes that Goodtimes has put together in one great package.They are both wonderful examples of why this wholesome and inspiring series touched us 30 years ago and still touch us today.

"The Premiiere Movie" was the made for TV pilot, that introduced us to the Ingalls family and their quest to make a better life for themselves.The harrowing adventures, the love and joy, the tears and laughter as they journey from the 'Big Woods' of Wisconsin searching for a place to call home, will have you all choked up one minute and grinning ear to ear the next.You'll also meet Jack the dog, and Mr. Edwards for the first time and even they will have you laughing and crying. This one is feature length and runs 1hour 38 min(and you wont have to sit through any commercials).

The next is the very emotional "Remember Me". Oscar winner Patricia Neal("Hud") guest stars in this double length episode as a widow who learns she is terminally ill. She has three young children and turns to Charles to help her find a home for them.Charles promises to keep the children together, but fulfilling the promise proves difficult.The answer is out there..can Charles find it? This is one of the most touching episodes of all, so have the Kleenex handy for this one.It runs about an hour and a half.

The cast includes Michael Landon(Pa),Karen Grassle(Ma),Melissa Gilbert(Laura), Melissa Sue Anderson(Mary),Bonnie Bartlett(the widow Snyder) and the wonderful Victor French as Mr. Edwards.The series is based on the "Little House" books by Laura Ingalls Wilder and are a great way to spend family time together. Although these vintage episodes are nearly 30 years old, they stand the test of time and will always remain a great part of TV history.

The DVD transfers of this classic series by Goodtimes is very good. Some occasional flickering, but overall a nice clear view with good color and sound.These two episodes are also sold individually or you can purchase "The Premiere Movie" in a four pack which also includes "The Lord is My Shepherd",a double length episode guest starring Ernest Borgnine,"The Collection", guest starring Johnny and June Cash, and "Laura Ingalls Wilder", also a double length. If you are a really big fan or know someone who is, you can even purchase entire seasons(1,2 and 3) just released to DVD(not Goodtimes, but also very nice transfers). Season 1 does not include the pilot episode, so you would still have to purchase that one separately.

Share these wonderfully touching and inspiring clasics with a new generation!....enjoy...Laurie

This movie is a must-see if you liked "SHANE", and are tired of "RIO BRAVO" reruns, but like the genre.

Someone in those days actually knew all the classic elements of a good story, and it's obvious when you see this flick. Todays special effects, with bullets whizzing by, would be the only possible improvement for this film. Don't miss it if you like westerns!!!
