Weighing in with their review of Disney’s Teacher’s Pet, DVD Toons agrees that it is better than than its box-office bomb nature suggests and deserves a second breath of life: “It’s refreshing to see good old-fashioned cartooning again, without the obvious CG distractions – everything here is refreshingly ‘lo-tech’. The story’s scope certainly opens things up and the extra budget seems to have gone on the zappy big musical numbers. The animation has the same look as the series and, ironically, the look may be better suited to the small screen, but it is more kinetic, and shows there’s a lot of life left in the old 2D dog yet!”
