Lil' Bush - Resident of United States - Season One

When Lil' Bush debuted on Comedy Central my son called and urged me to watch. I did and it was hilarious! This animated show is set during the Bush 41 term in office. George is in elementary school -- along with classmates (his future cabinet members and executive staff). The characters resemble their adult selves in personality and behaviors and the episodes are very loosely based on some factual tidbit recognizable to most. This series is not partisan nearly as much as it is satire. For better or worse, President G. W. Bush provided the creators of Lil' Bush with rich data to draw from. If you still have questions about this very well priced DVD -- take a good close look at the cover and know that Barb and George Sr. are in the big white house simply trying to raise their sons right. Enjoy!

This was a timeless piece of American Television which was cut short by the ever-changing landscape of politics. My father and I were brought closer by this series than anything else in our lives. Truly, truly, an influential work, Lil' Bush forces Americans to evaluate their own life choices by examining those of Bushy and the rest of the gang."Rah rah rah Cats in the Cradle rah rah rah" -Lil' Cheney

This show is satire in its simplest forms, takes noted characteristics of Public Figures (on both sides) and incorporates them to when they were youths.All the characters are funny: Pres, VPres, Rummy, Condi, Hillary, Gore, Kerry, Rove, GHWBush, BClinton, 1st Lady (not so much), Obama, and Jed.The funniest? Pres, VP, Rummy (hilarious EVERYtime), Kerry, and Gore.A good bargain of laughs for the price.

I love this show so much. Even though the Bush administration is well over, it's only slightly topical, so the jokes aren't totally irrelevant. This season mainly pokes fun at Dubya and his friends, although it doesn't glorify the Left either and leaves them as the butt of quite a few jokes. I totally get why it ended, but I wish Season 2 weren't so hard to come by on DVD.

Regardless of the pain that this show will cause your resident Republican, they will love it none the less. Even though the episodes are a bit misleading and cruel, the truth behind the satire provides a fun and educational experience to hardliners and moderates alike. The truth is indeed a double edged sword. This fantastic show hurts and heals in a single stroke.Lil' Bush - Resident of United States - Season One

The "Lil'" characters are genius! I especially love the cameos by Lil' Tony Blair and Lil' Al Gore. Some of the shows aren't quite that funny but I do appreciate the characters and the witty lines. The global warming episode is classic.

Great series, poking fun at both political parties from a unique point of view. Hadn't seen this since it originally aired, a friend reminded me of how much we had laughed at it and had to get a hard copy for posterity. As relevant today as it was when it first aired.

One of the funniest shows from Comedy Central. Comedy centrals Golden age produced a lot of hit funny shows. But follow lil George and friends to iraqistan and prancing camp al-queda and have some laughs
