Best movie ever!

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Similar to the Archies or Scooby-Doo, with a notable distinction: really good music. Led by the vocals of Motown Artist Patrice Holloway (Brenda Holloway's sister, who actually played Valerie on the concert tours) and backed by the vocals of future Charlie's Angel Cheryl Ladd as Melody, the producers used ace studio musicians and ace singers to produce real soul music - in a cartoon.I wonder how many people who like this show were aware that there was a live band that went on tour with the songs as "Josie and the Pussycats" to promote it?It was also funnier than either the Archies or Scooby-Doo. Although Alex annoys me - he's exactly the same character and Shaggy on Scooby-Doo. But Alexandra is hysterical.Valerie was also the first regular black character on a children's cartoon show.

This cartoon is great! While many people look at it as a poor man's version of Scooby Doo, this series was more urban, more hip & more fun. Prior to "Where in the world is Carmen San Diego?" this cartoon introduced me to geography and history and got me interested in learning about other places in the world. There was definitely more of an adult sense of humor and some interesting characters. The stories varied and often had a few surprises (unlike Scooby Doo). This series was good enough to spawn a spin-off series (Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space). Unfortunately, like many spin-offs, it wasn't as good as the original. If you get a chance to see the original Josie & the Pussycats, enjoy!

I rediscovered the cartoon when the 2001 movie starring Rachael Leigh Cook and Tara Reid was almost released. The show was broadcasted in a Canadian Cable Network (YTV).I have watched it in 1972-73 and re-watching it was going into the same fun I had when I was a kid. Stories that were funny, written the "Hanna Barbera" way and with such a sense of humor. I can say here the show distanced a bit from the Archie comic book itself. For example, Alex left his arrogant ego in the comic book and becomes a coward in this one (and that voice from Casey Kasem, I burst out, this is funny ). For the rest, Alexandra with her envys of stealing Alan from Josie and give the Pussycats a "music lesson" and Melody with her everlasting ditziness makes the show...Noticeable thing here: since the original series started when "Scooby Doo" took a break, I found that Josie and the Pussycats were patterned the same way, with same music and expressions like "meddling kids". Otherwise, the rest is fun to watch and was also a great geography course because in each show, they were in a different country. And even one of the shows did feature a chase around the world (one of the best episodes called "The Great Pussycat Chase"...).A fun classic to be enjoyed over and over again...

"Josie And The Pussycats" is one of the funniest cartoon shows I've ever seen, it was released in the decade that appeared one of the most popular cartoon shows in that time - yes i'm talking 'bout Scooby-Doo -, the real star and show stealer is Alexandra Cabot (well known in Latin America as Alejandra Cabot), she is the funniest character of the TV and she makes the show funnier than his brother Alex. The show is now showed on Cartoon Network Latin america's new channel Boomerang.Also other of the most funniest parts of the show is the wacky cat Sebastian.
