About
the Show
Pinwheel is a children's program similar to Sesame
Street which aired on Nickelodeon (the network itself was formerly called
Pinwheel) from 1979-1990, and spanned 260 hour-long episodes. It usually ran in
blocks of 3-5 hours, and featured in each episode many types of animated shorts
from around the world as well as segments with live actors interacting with
puppets, depicting daily life around the house. The live action characters
included the elderly couple Sal and Smitty who ran The Daily Noodle,
Jake, Coco the mime, and Kim. The puppet characters included Plus and Minus,
Aurelia the gypsy, Silas the snail, the green Oscar the Grouch type character
named Ebenezer T. Squint, Luigi who ran a produce stand, and Molly the mole. For
the generation growing up at that time, Pinwheel was a staple of childhood.

Lyrics
to the Theme Song:
Pinwheel, pinwheel, spinning around
Look at my pinwheel and see what I've found
Pinwheel, pinwheel, where have you been?
Hello, how are you, and may I come in?
Pinwheel, pinwheel, spinning around
Look at my pinwheel and see what I've found
Pinwheel, pinwheel, breezy and bright
Spin me good morning, spin me good night

About
the DVDs
Pinwheel is available in a set of three DVDs containing
approximately five-and-a-half hours of material from the TV series, plus bonus material available from this web site
only. Bonuses include one episode of David the Gnome, and two episodes of the
live-action children's show Today's Special (starring a department store
mannequin named Jeff who comes alive after closing-time and has adventures with
his friends). Each DVD has menus with sound for easy selection of material, which
runs in chronological order. You will receive the discs only, which are
enclosed in paper sleeves and carefully packaged for shipping; no case or cover art is included.
This set 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 is an eight out of ten (see the screen captures
One
Two
Three
Four
for examples).
You may have seen a similar two-disc DVD set being sold on eBay, iOffer, or similar web
sites. My set includes the same Pinwheel material, but I have employed the use
of color correction and audio restoration to improve the quality as well as reauthored the DVDs with more attractive menus. I'm offering this improved set
due to popular demand from my visitors.

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 and make sure you understand all the information I have
provided about the product before ordering. Though it is unlikely you will have
any issues with my discs as DVD-R is compatible with about 94% of all DVD
players, please
do a search on VideoHelp's web site to make sure 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.
