The Littlest Hobo Audience Reviews

Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Majorthebys Charming and brutal
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
agro_sydney I haven't met an Australian kid who grew up in the 1960s who didn't love "The Littlest Hobo" and the theme song "Road without end." The Littlest Hobo would drift from town to town helping people in need and then move on often before anyone had a chance to thank him. Lots of familiar faces from film and TV pop up as guest stars.
campo_smokie-citrus We just discovered this classic series and fell in love with it. It's about a stray German Shepherd who travels from town to town getting involved in people's lives and helping them out with their problems. He just seems to know what to do. At the end of each episode he moves on to the next place. This show has a sincerity and charm that's very special and it's highly addictive. This is delightful to both kids and adults. The dog actor, London, who is the only constant from episode to episode, is beautiful and very talented. The music is also very nice, especially the theme song, "Road Without End", that's played at the beginning and ending of each episode. The more I hear it the better I like it. Check it out. You'll love it!
wwoodyard It may well be that my baby boomer memory is having a seniors moment but I feel certain that our main character was not a German shepherd but some other sort of canine of approximately the same dimensions. Maybe someone else with a better memory might be able to enlighten us. All I can say that I still get a warm glow inside whenever I think of this wonderful children's show. Each episode was a vignette of new characters to which our Hobo usually helped resolve a human dilemma with animal heart. So sad to think the world that could create such wonderful things with so much love is gone forever... and yet it left such a lasting impression on this 50yo man...
Bruce Corneil Entertaining children's show from Canada about the adventures of a German Shepherd who wanders across the provinces doing good deeds.Oh how I loved this show when I was a kid. The dog's name was "London" and he was a real hero to junior TV viewers 'way back when'. I recently picked up an episode and enjoyed it just as much as I did in the '60s.Even now, I find myself occasionally singing the theme song when I least expect to ( a kind of involuntary rapid mouth movement ) .. "A-driftin', the world is my friend, I'm travelin' along the road .. without end ". These shows were so much more positive and uplifting than the idiotic garbage that's on offer these days. "London" was one of the great animal stars of the era - right up there with Flipper, Gentle Ben and Rin Tin Tin ( 'Go Rintee'! )
