A couple weeks ago I shared a fun Shaun the Sheep Christmas movie that my family has been enjoying -- read the review here:  https://www.inspiredbysavannah.com/2023/11/get-in-holiday-spirit-with-shaun-sheep.html.  Today, I wanted to share the upcoming release of the complete Shaun the Sheep series from Shout! Factory.

About this release:

"Direct from Mossy Bottom, the complete collection of Shaun The Sheep arrives in a 7-Disc Blu-ray™ set on December 12 from Aardman, the iconic stop-motion and Claymation animation studio and winner of four Academy Awards®. Shaun the Sheep: The Complete Series includes all 170 episodes on 7 discs, marking the first-time seasons 5 and 6 of the show are available to own. It also includes The Flight Before Christmas, a half-hour Christmas special which follows Shaun, Timmy and the Flock – as well as some new characters – in a mischief-filled festive caper, and over an hour of bonus material with Mossy Bottom Shorts, Championsheeps, and the Shaun-tastic special, The Farmer’s Llama."

Like I shared my previous post about the Shaun the Sheep Christmas movie, my girls grew up watching Shaun the Sheep, and were so excited when I surprised them the other day with the Shaun the Sheep: The Complete Series.  Over the years we have bought DVDs of the different seasons of this popular animated series.  The show aired from 2010 until 2017 for 6 years, with a total of 170 episodes.  This Blu-ray release, which arrives in stores for purchase on Dec.12th contains all 170 episodes, as well as specials and shorts.

We have been having a blast binging all 6 seasons of Shaun the Sheep thanks to this upcoming Blu-ray collection release from Shout! Factory.  Each night after dinner we settle in and watch a few episodes. So far, we have made it through 55 episodes.  I love seeing my girls' eyes light up when an episode comes on that they remember and loved.  They were little when the series premiered and it was a staple at bedtime, as it was the only show that got them both to calm down and relax and just lay on the couch watching Shaun the Sheep before heading to bed. And now, years later, they are doing the same thing -- laying on the couch and watching Shaun the Sheep before -- just, this time they take up more space on the couch. :-)

If you have a Shaun the Sheep fan in your life who loved(s) this animated series, then I highly recommend you pick up the Shaun the Sheep: The Complete Series, when it arrives to Blu-ray on December 7th.  This 7-disc set is a must-own for fans young and old of Shaun the Sheep.  We are loving all the episodes we have watched and re-watched so far, and know you will, too!
