DVD Reviews of Greg the Bunny - The Complete SeriesDVD Review: "regular jobs just with low doorknobs" Summary: 5 Stars
Imagine a world where puppets lived among us and experienced the same trials and tribulations as we do. The creators of Greg the Bunny did when they created this fresh and hilarious series. Why it did not take off, I do not understand. It was definitely promoted well. Maybe this reasonably-priced DVD of its 13 episodes will help this show go the route of the newly-revived Family Guy (one never knows). Anyway, the following is what Greg the Bunny left us (and we're still trying to clean it all up):
1. "Welcome to Sweetknuckle Junction": Discrimination make it difficult for puppets (er, "fabricated Americans") to obtain jobs outside of the whack-a-mole machine at the arcade or kiddie television programs like Sweetknuckle Junction. Jimmy's puppet roommate Greg the Bunny is facing that situation and luckily Jimmy's father Gil directs the SJ show. When star Rochester Rabbit can no longer cut it, Greg wins the audition to takeover his job. Will Rochester wage his revenge on the cute little bunny?
2. "Sock Like Me": This episode never aired and is my favorite on this DVD. An anti-puppet slur (the "S" word, in this case, is "Sock") is written on the restroom wall which starts a campaign of anti-puppetism education. Hilarious take on the human world of sensitivity training.
3. "Dottie Heat": Greg has puppet love for the wild Dottie. Will the little bunny become a rabbit? The puppets at the poker table gossiping about Sesame Street puppets (Burt and Ernie are straight...no way!) is a highlight.
4. "SK-2.0": A children's focus group, and Jimmy's advice, cause the show to go MTV.
5. "Piddler on the Roof": Warren, the alcoholic puppet gorilla who aspires to be a great Shakespearean actor, is literally p'd off when he thinks Alison will not let him perform Shakespeare on the show.
6. Jimmy tries to make Alison jealous by coming on to this hideous-looking puppet Susan who smells of Scotchguard. Meanwhile, to stop his constant nightmares, Greg tries to get Rochester back on the show. The Rochester Roast is one of the funniest scenes in the series.
7. "Father and Son Reunion": Jimmy tries to cope with his parent's divorce. His mother is played by Julie Hagerty from the Airplane movies.
8. "Jimmy Drives Gil Crazy": Corey Feldman guest stars in this never aired episode where an errand to scoop up poop in Warren's yard ends up with Jimmy tied to Warren's bed & Greg and Feldman taking a joyride in Warren's car.
9. "Greg Gets Puppish": Another one of my favorites. Greg tries to get back to his "puppish" roots with the help of the Jesse Jackson of the Puppet world. A topic that hits very close to home.
10. "Surprise!": The cast tries to impress the TV Guide reporter that they are one big, happy family by giving Junction Jack a surprise birthday party.
11. "The Jewel Heist": Greg keeps getting attacked by the dog of Jimmy's new girlfriend. Jack has a rather drastic, and irreversible, solution to the problem.
12. "The Singing Mailman": Dottie's in trouble when a Goodwill employee blackmails her after finding a porno video in a bag of her donated clothes.
13. "Blah Bawls": About my favorite character, Count Blah. Jimmy and Greg try to find Blah, who is pining away for his long dead wife, a new woman. Blah ends up with Warren's ex (played by Mary Lou Henner). Note: Blah's wife's headstone is engraved "Beloved Wife Blah" and "R.I.P.B."
Besides the two un-aired episodes, fans of the series will also enjoy a lot of extras with this set, including commentaries, an interview with Greg and Seth Green, promos, photo gallery, etc. The puppet porno gallery that is advertised on the insert does not seem to be included (maybe that is a good thing).

Description of Greg the Bunny - The Complete SeriesUncut, uncensored and unrelenting, Greg the Bunny stars Seth Green and Eugene Levy and is rude, crude, and stuffed with attitude. TV wasn?t ready for him. Are you? The complete series on DVD includes two never aired episodes and much more. Puppets are people too!
