These continuing adventures for 'Tod" and "Copper" are really only an excuse for some toe-tapping country and western musical numbers. The story is really neither here nor there. Travelling around, they alight on a band who take a bit of a shine to "Copper" and perhaps the big time looms? This puts a strain on the friendship - especially with the "Grand Ole Opry" beckoning and the pair spending less and less time together. Can "Tod" make his friend realise it's all a pipe-dream? Or perhaps it isn't - maybe "Copper" is destined for stardom? The animation focusses almost entirely on the speaking characters and that leaves the background looking very static and two-dimensional. The fairground scene isn't any better than the one in "Mary Poppins" from more than forty years earlier and the characterisations rely much too heavily on the songs. It's a straight to video exercise, this - the kids might enjoy it once, but I doubt it needs to be watched twice by anyone.
