Kidd Video is the mid-1980s NBC and syndicated live-action and animated hybrid series about a teenage rock band, Kidd, Carla, Whiz, and Ash, who are pulled out of their California garage rehearsal into the fully-animated Flipside dimension by the wicked Master Blaster, where they must navigate Flipside while trying to find their way home. The show ran across NBC and syndication from 1984 into 1986, with 26 episodes that pair live-action band performances with animated adventures.

What stands out is the show's specific live-action-and-animation hybrid format. Each episode opens and closes with live-action band members performing in their van, then transitions into the fully-animated Flipside-dimension adventures where the band's animated counterparts navigate the world's various magical-music threats. The animation has a brightly-colored mid-80s broadcast cel look, and the music includes both original songs and contemporary chart hits worked into each episode.

It belongs to a specific mid-80s wave of live-action-and-animated music-driven family programming, the same family of cross-format experiments that the era was funding for NBC and syndicated children's distribution. For viewers who tracked Kidd Video during its original mid-80s run, this collection captures one of the era's most distinctive cross-format properties.

Highlights in the set include "To Beat The Band," "The Master Zapper," "The Pink Sphinx," "The Lost Note," "Music Sports," "Euphonius And The Melodius Dragon," "Grooveyard City," "The Stone," "The Dream Machine," "Old Time Rocks That Roll," "Race To Popland," "Master Blaster Brat," and "Who's In The Kitchen With Dinah," episodes that capture both the show's live-action band moments and its biggest Flipside-dimension setpieces. This 3-DVD collection gathers all 26 episodes, the complete Kidd Video run in one place.

Stars: Bryan Scott, Gabriela Nelson, Robbie Rist.
