- Sometimes you come across a winner, and Hi-Tops Video's The Adventures of Commander Crumbcake is about as big a win as you can get in the direct-to-video kid's entertainment scene. It's genuinely funny, well-made, and enjoyable to watch. It's almost entirely devoid of the crassness and stupidity that plagues the genre. It doesn't talk down to kids. It's also a bit out of date, but hey--mid-80s.
Anyway, let's take a look at a series that's almost entirely lost to time, but seriously deserves another look.

I never watched when after seeing the Hightops logo, I'm pretty sure my Inside Out emotions fund a core memory
I love this and I'm not sure why I've never heard of this show but now I'm definitely going to get a dog someday and name them Commander Crumbcake.
OMG THE CHEAT! I love honest Homestar! Great reference.
I'm from Australia and had (still have) two of these tapes! "Revenge of the Words" and "They Shoot Dinosaurs, Don't They?". The other Australian commenter below mentions two, so I guess that's probably all we got? I remember them being pretty readily available, and they were trailed on (from memory) the Australian GI Joe VHS releases. Trailers said it was "from the original writers of Saturday Night Live".
Ah excellent, I've got 2 VHS tapes (so 4 eps in total) that are different from your tape. I'll have to upload them soon over at the Internet Archive.
I never watched this before as a youngling!
Someone uploaded all the tapes on RUclips last July, it's no longer lost people
rock on!
thanks for mining this gold
I remember seeing this on TV back in the day, the show I thought was garbage, but damn that theme song was killer.
I swear to God, I've seen this show before. I don't know how or when or why, but it looks too familiar. I could just be channeling old Today's Special and Alf memories, but . . . I don't think so.
I think it was on Showtime before
