My Take on the DVD Set
Growing up in the 80's I remember Jem too well... not that I watched it a lot but the theme song is emblazoned in my mind. I was shocked this year to find that the new Cable station, The HUB was carrying the show and that my girls loved the show. When I saw that the box set of the series was coming out, I was excited to be able to share this with my own daughters and I knew that they would love it. In receiving the set, my girls were ecstatic and they wanted to watch it right away. We actually had to limit the amount of time that they were watching the show as they wanted to keep watching every episode. I can tell that this box set will be one that will continue to keep my girls singing, dancing and having fun for a long time to come.
