ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
campo_smokie-citrus We just discovered this classic series and fell in love with it. It's about a stray German Shepherd who travels from town to town getting involved in people's lives and helping them out with their problems. He just seems to know what to do. At the end of each episode he moves on to the next place. This show has a sincerity and charm that's very special and it's highly addictive. This is delightful to both kids and adults. The dog actor, London, who is the only constant from episode to episode, is beautiful and very talented. The music is also very nice, especially the theme song, "Road Without End", that's played at the beginning and ending of each episode. The more I hear it the better I like it. Check it out. You'll love it!
harlow28 As a kid growing up in Australia in the 1960's, this was one of my Favourites. Remember this was on during school hours and I would feign sickness just so I could watch it in the mornings.Littlest Hobo was named London and he was a German Shepherd. Suppose you could compare this to "Highway to Heaven" in some ways, as Jonathon Smith (Michael Landon) would travel around and do good deeds, as did Littlest Hobo but without the help of... Can still picture him sitting on the freight train in the opening sequence ready for the next adventure. I give this 8 out of 10 and that is because I am biased.
wwoodyard It may well be that my baby boomer memory is having a seniors moment but I feel certain that our main character was not a German shepherd but some other sort of canine of approximately the same dimensions. Maybe someone else with a better memory might be able to enlighten us. All I can say that I still get a warm glow inside whenever I think of this wonderful children's show. Each episode was a vignette of new characters to which our Hobo usually helped resolve a human dilemma with animal heart. So sad to think the world that could create such wonderful things with so much love is gone forever... and yet it left such a lasting impression on this 50yo man...
Bruce Corneil Entertaining children's show from Canada about the adventures of a German Shepherd who wanders across the provinces doing good deeds.Oh how I loved this show when I was a kid. The dog's name was "London" and he was a real hero to junior TV viewers 'way back when'. I recently picked up an episode and enjoyed it just as much as I did in the '60s.Even now, I find myself occasionally singing the theme song when I least expect to ( a kind of involuntary rapid mouth movement ) .. "A-driftin', the world is my friend, I'm travelin' along the road .. without end ". These shows were so much more positive and uplifting than the idiotic garbage that's on offer these days. "London" was one of the great animal stars of the era - right up there with Flipper, Gentle Ben and Rin Tin Tin ( 'Go Rintee'! )
