Notes:Coded R2/R4/R5.
At the beginning of each disc, you have to choose between Danish, English, Finnish, Spanish (Castilian), German, Hindi, Icelandic, Italian, Norwegian, Swedish - this has no real effect on the menu or available languages/subtitles, only the copyright notices. Episodes are not in broadcasting order and are mixed from different initial series runs (so it's not really "Season 1" as declared by Universal). Each of the six discs is in a keep case which are all housed in a cardboard box.
Missing the following episodes:
19. "Goldfish"
27. "Haircut"
31. "Art Thief"
32. "Scaredy Bean"
33. "Hot Date" -

OVERALL: R2
The German 6 disc release for the most episodes and without cuts.
Note that this has also been released in the UK and Australia by Universal and in the US by A&E. The Universal releases appear to be identical in layout, mixing episodes from all three of the initial runs and missing out on four episodes. The US release appears to contain all of the episodes, and seemingly in broadcast order (Volumes 1&2 containing the first run, Volumes 3&4 containing the second run, Volumes 5&6 containing the third run). It may be the only way to get all of the animated episodes (excluding the most recent 2014 run). -
CUTS:
- R2 Germany- Universal Pictures - No cuts, but is missing four episodes from the original series broadcasts.
- R2 Funny Faces Germany- Universal Pictures - Yes - compilation of episode clips.
