Catch all 17 episodes of this unusual animated series featuring a fashionista heroine who derives her power from a pair of magical go-go boots. Her name's just as charming, too: Penelope Pitstop. Unfortunately, the evil Sylvester Sneakly (aka The Hooded Claw) doesn't find her delightful; instead, he views her as a major threat, which may explain why all he ever wants to do is destroy her. Can she continue to fend him off?

Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that this retro animated classic features one of the sweetest heroines ever to hit the TV screen. That said, not-so-nice concepts -- greed, violence, revenge -- are brought to the forefront in every episode. If parents take the time to explain these concepts (which potentially could set a bad example), then the show can be taken as silly, fun, exciting entertainment.

Violence

The Evil Claw constantly sets traps for Penelope, mostly of the ropes-and-explosives variety.
