Great DVD and it gets 5 stars for not having the puppets in this release (Rexy, Teddy, & Gilbert). My two year old daughter yells Caillou everytime the puppets appear. I then have to find the remote and press the skip key until Caillou comes back on.
The only negative is that this DVD features a one-minute promo for other PBSKids releases. This in itself is not bad, but this promo plays each time the disc is inserted and it won't let you skip it or fast forward it.

While I cannot fault the story content of this DVD, there are a couple of issues to be aware of. The first is that this DVD features a one-minute promo for other PBSKids releases. This in itself is not bad, but this promo plays each time the disc is inserted and it won't let you skip it or fast forward it.
The other thing to note here is that there is no new special features content. The creators of the "Caillou" DVDs seem content to rest entirely on their laurels, and so the "bonus" content is the same old character biographies, parents message, simple game, and coloring pages.
The story content is four stories, all from the 2006 season of Caillou. The puppets are indeed gone and there are now three stories in each episode. The four episodes are "Caillou the Magnificent," "Caillou the Musician," "Caillou the Sports Star" and "Caillou the Explorer." The first one is filled with imagination and magic. The second is naturally very musical, featuring instruments and a marching band. The third one includes a day at the park, fun games with Caillou's Grandma and Caillou trying to ride his bike without his training wheels. In the final one, Caillou meets a new girl at his playschool named Lee Wuhn. He also explores a bayou and imagines living where it's very cold.
One other thing that should be noted --- while the DVD allows individual episode selection, it then tries to rope you into continuous play by going on to the next episode instead of going to the menu.

This DVD contains four of the newer Caillou episodes, and each of these episodes has 3 stories in it.
It contains:
--Caillou the Magnificent (learns about Show and tell, Caillou the Magician, King of the Castle)
--Caillou the Musician (Billy's new drums, leads a marching band, sings with Clementine in talent show)
--Caillou the Sports Star (play silly games and win ribbons in Grandma's contests, learns he is getting stronger, ok to still need training wheels)
--Caillou the Explorer (Daddy treats for ice cream, stores about the Antarctic, Calliou imagines playing with the penguins, scuba diving, for treasure and searching out alligators.)
Because this is a newer DVD, the puppet versions of Rexy, Gilbert and Teddy mentioned in the Amazon summary above are NOT in this DVD. Instead, there are some of the new "extras" like Caillou performing songs (the "I want to be big right now" song is kind of hilarious). So far, I haven't seen any scenes with the real kids, i.e. the "Caillettes" that usually do song and dance numbers in the older DVDS. I haven't yet watched the extra features, but the main DVD is 100% Caillou cartoon fun. Because this is newer, the episodes feature Rosie doing more talking and interacting with Caillou. And for those concerned about Caillou's behavior, he was not "whiny" or "bratty" in these episodes but seemed realistically positive. Some of these episodes show Caillou at his preschool setting, which is nice for kids of a similar age to see.
If your child is fond of Caillou, which mine is, I would definitely recommend this DVD.
