Product Description Welcome to the magical world of Rolie Polie Olie, the place to spot every tot's favorite 'bot! Watch as Olie, his sister, Zowie, and their family and friends scare up a "boo-tiful" day of Halloween mischief and fun in three swell animated robot adventures. The Halloween treats start with "The Legend Of Spookie Ookie," as Pappy tricks Zowie and Olie by appearing as the fabled Spookie Ookie ... but is it really Pappy? Next, in "Oooh Scary," Olie and Billy set up a frightening fun house to scare the little kids, but Zowie and Binky scream with laughter when it's the big boy 'bots who get spooked. Then, in "Zowie, Queen Of The Pumpkins," Zowie's dream reveals what Spookie Ookie is really after when he comes to visit each year. Winner of the 2000 Daytime Emmy(R) Award for Outstanding Special Class Animated Program, your preschoolers are sure to have a ball with their favorite robot pal and his fun-filled adventures! .com To describe Playhouse Disney's perennial preschool favorite, think Teletubbies meets the Jetsons. This loving, traditional family--Mr. And Mrs. Polie, 6-year-old Olie, sister Zowie, and Grandpa Pappy--are hairless beings with antennas, glassy eyes, and noodle arms, set in a fruit-striped, computer-animated household of living appliances. Okey-dokey? While parents scratch their heads as to what makes this program work, preschoolers are enamored with the soothing storylines, predictable endings, and deliberate pace of the Emmy-award winning show. A trio of hardly haunted tales makes up this celebratory 24-minute video. If Charlie Brown gets the Great Pumpkin, then Olie can dream of the giant orange Spookie Ookie, which he does in "The Legend of Spookie Ookie." In "Oooh Scary," Olie and his pal Billy plan to give Zowie the fright of her life but the shivers come back to haunt them, much to her delight. And in "Zowie Queen of the Pumpkins," the spookie-ookiest day of the year becomes a sweet memory of dancing with spook-o-lanterns when Zowie meets a midnight friend in the pumpkin patch.

we love it
Rolie Polie Olie is one of my daughter's favorite shows. I enjoy it too because it is well made, the stories are well told, and, the characters and setting are simply adorable! A Spookie Ookie Halloween is a little on the short side, being the length of the average show, but very entertaining. They are celebrating what looks like Halloween but it is differnt than most Halloween shows as there is not an emphasis on candy. I am basically dumbfounded by the reviewers who said this movie is so scary. This is ridiculous. My daughter who is to loves it. I recommend this to anyone who isn't an over sensitive nutcase. Seriously, enjoy.

Rolie Polie
I highly recommend all the episodes from the Rolie Polie world created by children's author William Joyce along with Walt Disney, has been a wonderful feature for children. The clinky clanky robot world is fun, with good morals, and non-violent stories. This tape has 3 different Olie stories and in the first "The Legend of Spookie Ookie." Pappy tricks Zowie and Olie by appearing as the orange Spookie Ookie", a halloween character. But does the real Spookie Ookie arrive? In the 2nd episode "Oooh Scary," Olie and his pal Billy create a fun house to scare the younger kids, but they are the ones that get spooked. The third story is "Zowie Queen of the Pumpkins", whre Zowie meets spok-o-lanterns in the pumpkin patch at midnight.The DVD version has these stories, plus a Halloween episode from "The Book of Pooh", and one from the show, "Out of the Box". Also an instructional feature from Disney on carving a jack-O-lantern, and another on making Halloween decorations from everday items. So you may want the DVD version.

Spookie Ookie Halloween
My almost 2 yr old daughter LOVES this show. In fact, she re-acts it out as it plays. She has seen this movie a dozen times and still "screams" when he appears then laughs! Yes Spookie Ookie is a little scary but she LOVES it. She wiggles her fingers like Pollie, pats on the back of her stuff animals just like Zowie pats on Ole Spookie Ookie's back when he is sad.She loves the pumpkins, and of corse Zowie.I plan on buying the rest of the series.

Very Fun and Not Scary!
This is a very cute video. It is spooky but never scary. My 2 1/2 year old loves it and it is still "cool" enough for my 5 year old as well. I highly reccomend this video!

短いお話が３つ入っています。
アメリカで大人気とは聞いていましたが、かわいいですよー！！まん丸で！内容は、ハロウィーンだけ。短いのが３つ。ぱっぱか動くCGに４才の息子は釘付けでした。JACK-O'LANTERNがびよん、びよーんって飛ぶとこなんて、CGならでは。面白いです。付録に自分のオリジナルJACK-O'LANTERNが作れるハガキが付いていました。ラッキー！本編が始まるまで、７分間ずっとＣＭなのが笑えます。さすがDISNEY CHANNEL！？そうそう、CCなので、見られる方は、妹のZOWIEの間違った発音がどんなもんかわかって、それもまた面白いですよ。

クリスマスバージョンも買うぞぉー!
かなり釘づけです！ハローウィンが終わっても、見続けてました（＾＾；）CGなので、新鮮さがあったのかも知れませんね。ストーリーが小分けなのも、小さな子供にはいいのかも知れません。ビデオのCMで見て、可愛らしさに引かれて買ったのですが、こんなにもはまられると、次のクリスマスのも買いたくなってしまっています(笑）
