Synopsis
A British adaptation of a French cartoon, HECTOR'S HOUSE is charming children's cartoon series that follows the fun and adventures in the lives of Hector the dog, Zsazsa the cat and their next door neighbour Kiki the frog. Sometimes bizarre but always good fun, this title is a must for today's children or for those who remember it from its 1970's heyday.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hector's House, 5 Jan 2007
By Mr. A. M. Webb "weaver" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this for m(e)y daughter, so she can watch a different type of programming instead of all the flash bang wallop of Tweenies etc. And how have times changed, in one of the episodes Hector declares 'someone is in my shed, I will go and get my gun' !!!! Classic.

Good viewing down old memory lane.

1.0 out of 5 stars Could have been so much better, 26 Mar 2001
By A Customer
I think its great that Hector's House is coming out on DVD but this release could have been so much better. The prints are of French original and not the UK ones(that were previously available on the Channel 5 videos in the late 80s, early 90s). The end credits have been cut from every episode and it makes the viewing horrible. There are no extras and the menu design (?) is terrible. I've only given 1 star because I'm pleased that its coming out on DVD, however, if vol 2 is the same as this I won't bother.

5.0 out of 5 stars stream of conciousness Zaza...!, 26 Mar 2006
By J. S. CHEEMA (UNITED KINGDOM) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love this.It hooks you from the moment Hector and Zaza leave their house in the first episode and right the way through to the end.I love Hector's scatalogical view of the world and you can tell the actors had a real hoot (and had to work damn hard!) matching up the dialogue with the events unfolding,sometimes only just making it in terms of narrative logic before the actions of Hector and his friends run away from them.Superb.
