HIT Favorites: Playtime PalsSwings Onto DVD May 5, 2009 From Lionsgate And HIT Entertainment!

Get ready for playtime fun with your favorite preschool pals! Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment bring together preschool favorites Thomas & Friends™, Barney™, Fifi and the Flowertots™, Bob the Builder™, Fireman Sam™ and Kipper™ for HIT Favorites: Playtime Pals, a lively new collection of six exciting adventures arriving on DVD May 5, 2009.

Thomas & Friends™ get together to watch a dazzling fireworks display, Barney™ plays out in the sunshine with his friends, and Fifi stays cool by transforming her garden into a beach! Join your favorite friends because the fun never ends in this collection of playful outdoor adventures.

Episodes include:

Thomas & Friends – In “Thomas and the Lighthouse,” it’s time for the Harvest Festival, complete with clowns, a choir and fireworks. But the local lighthouse needs a new light bulb first and it’s up to Thomas to deliver it. The job calls for slow and steady care, but when his excitement and impatience get the better of him and jeopardizes his assignment, Thomas learns a valuable lesson.

Barney – In “Summer,” it’s the first day of summer and a super-dee-duper day to be out in the sun and having some fun! Barney and his pals show the many different summer activities to enjoy, from hiking and baseball to fishing and simply watching the green grass grow. Don’t forget the sunscreen!

Fifi and the Flowertots – In “Life’s a Beach,” it’s too hot to do much of anything – except head to the beach! The problem is, Fifi and her friends live in a garden. No worries, they’ll just make their own! All it takes is a little “sand” and a giant leaf to hold lots of water. Surf’s up!

Bob the Builder – In “Splasher’s Two Stops,” the job of the day is to construct two brand new stops along the river where Splasher the water bus can pick up and drop off passengers. Leave it to Bob and his Can-Do Crew to build the perfect “Splasher Stops.” But can Splasher’s enthusiasm be tamed by a timetable? After all, even he can’t be everywhere at once!

Fireman Sam – In “King of the Jungle,” with Norman having a Tarzan complex, twins James and Sarah fighting medieval enemies and haystacks spontaneously combusting in the heat, Fireman Sam certainly has his work cut out for him!

Kipper – In “The Swimming Pool,” Kipper, Tiger, Pig and Arnold are off to beat the heat at the local swimming pool. But something is up with Tiger – he’s avoiding the water because he can’t swim. Once “armed” with handy water wings, though, it’s “everyone in the pool!”
