About
the Show
Maya the Bee is the story of an adventurous young honeybee named Maya and her
insect friends. Maya's adventures begin after she was so successful at gathering
pollen for the Queen Bee near the hive that she exhausted the supply and was
sent away in search of more. Accompanying her is her best friend Willi, who is
more cowardly than the outgoing Maya, but is a kindhearted and loyal companion.
Together, they meet new friends and creatures and learn new things from their
experiences. But they must always be careful to avoid the wasps, who are bigger
and tougher bees, and not at all friendly.
Maya the Bee is based on the children's book by Waldemar Bonsels. The animated
series was originally produced by Nippon Animation Company in Japan and aired
from 1975-1976, consisting of 55 episodes. A second Maya series was produced
later, and ten episodes were taken from this series and added to the original
when Saban dubbed Maya the Bee into English. The 65-episode English version
aired on Nickelodeon from 1990-1992 as a part of Nick Jr. To date, the series
has enjoyed success in many different countries and languages, especially in
Germany where Maya is one of the most recognized children's characters.

Lyrics
to the Theme Song:
Who's a friendly little bee
Playing oh so happily
Buzzing here and buzzing there
Busy buzzing everywhere
Maya loves and Maya cares
Maya gives and Maya shares
Maya likes to play around
But she'll never let you down
Maya, Maya the bee
Maya, Maya the bee
See her flying through the air
Buzzing here and buzzing there
Saying, "Catch me if you dare"
Busy buzzing everywhere
Maya, Maya the bee
Maya, Maya the bee |
About
the DVDs
Maya the Bee is available on a single DVD containing
five full episodes from the cartoon series and one half of a sixth episode, plus
bonus material available from this web site only. The DVD has a menu with sound
for easy selection of episodes, which have been conveniently put into
chronological order. You will receive the disc only, which is enclosed in a
paper sleeve and carefully packaged
for shipping; no case or cover art is included.
This series comes on DVD-R, which will play on most DVD players as well as a computer
with a DVD-ROM drive and appropriate DVD-viewing software. I use only genuine
top quality DVD-R media from Verbatim, and occasionally Sony or TDK for maximum
quality and compatibility.
The quality ranges from eight-and-a-half to nine
out of ten (see the screen capture links above for examples). This is the
highest quality set available, and in fact, the only set available at
this time. Maya the Bee is perhaps the rarest cartoon I've ever searched for,
and finding even a few episodes has been no easy task. After years of hunting,
I've been able to compile this rare collection of episodes. I spent months
capturing, digitally restoring, and converting the series to DVD format for the
first time ever. This ensures quality every time you watch, unlike VHS tapes,
which deteriorate over time.
What the Set
Includes:
Disc One
1 Max the Earthworm (half episode)
2 The Show-Off Cockroach

Return
Policy
All discs are checked to be in perfect working condition before they are
shipped, but in the unlikely event that any disc is damaged during shipping or
not functioning properly, you may return the faulty disc(s) and I will replace them for free. Due to the nature of these discs (in
that they can be copied relatively easily) and the fact that the price you pay
is for time and materials, I do not issue refunds, only
replacements. This is why it is important to read all the information I have
provided, and make sure that you understand
what a DVD-R is and
whether your DVD player will be able to play
DVD-R before you order.
If you do have any problems with the discs or need a replacement, I'm always available to help out
and answer any questions you may have.
