Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Simon Kieth's popular comic book was adapted for television in this multipart animated series first broadcast on MTV. A little confusing, the series--which concerns a kind of hulking superhero and his attachment to a female therapist and her teenage client--is actually mesmerizing and surprisingly touching. The writing is unusually sophisticated, and Kieth's ability to create complex female characters and provide their incisive dialogue should be the envy of any male scribe. Parallel action set in a so-called outback--an escape from reality--is wild and evocative of childhood fantasies. This is a strangely beautiful show all around. --Tom Keogh
Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Missing so much
3 stars just because it's missing so much content.However, I did manage to get the entire series and burn it to a dvd so, that's at least a plus.But this VHS is missing a lot of content.Hopefully MTV releases an official DVD of The Maxx.Until then I've got a copy: )
Rating: - Bring The Maxx back...on DVD
I never read the comics, but when this show aired I was immediately drawn to it. It looked different than any other animated program before or since.

Rating: - Got any toast?
Oh how I wish this would come out on DVD. My wife and I both loved this show, and I still joke with her sometimes about it by asking her "Got any toast?" Funny thing is we've never watched an episode together. I would love to watch all of them again, but can't see spending any dough on old used VHS tapes.
Rating: - The Best Show MTV Ever Made or Will Ever Make
Adding my voice to the clamor calling for an official unedited DVD release is my pleasure. The Maxx is te best written TV show I have ever seen. This is animation at it's finest.
Rating: - Another vote for a DVD release!
I never write reviews on Amazon - but after doing a random search to see of this was on DVD I stumbled across all of these other reviewers asking for a DVD release. I loved this series. I read the comic and I watched the show. It had this creepy vibe going that hooked me instantly. The animation was so stylized and the voice acting so fitting to the original comics that I made sure never to miss an episode when it originally aired. In fact I taped it, but over the years my copy got so wore it out that ... Read More
