Hans the Hedgehog?
Hans My Hedgehog
The king has what looks like an axe in one hand, and a whip in the other (toward the end). Anybody know what the special symbolism is there?
Great question! No clue
The king in Yanko Raven is holding them as well. There's gotta be something there...
I used to watch the original version of this tale, though I didn't know an english version was around until a few years ago. Thus, I humbly thank you for putting this old tale up for all to see.
I love these animations! :)
I love this story! And that violin piece the poor man plays is so pretty, I wish I knew what the name of it was. :)
Well.. that's was an interesting fairy tale.....Suddenly James Earl jones!
i never knew hungarian folk tales were aired in toher countries :D
Mufasa hath spoken
Lol........Me too! :o
I want to live happily ever after on cheese pies and donuts!! :o
+Meggie Smith : Well, in Hungarian it usually says 'And they happily lived until they died';. :) In this tale it's something like this: 'And they lived free from care, eating cottage cheese pies and greasy scones, until they died.'
I grew up watching this. I thought it was lost forever when the switch between VHS and DVD occurred and I lost the tape. Oh, joy.
I had an old VHS tape digitized for preservation purposes!
Are you a hungarian? Or are you just grown up on hungarian folktales? :D
My parents were fans of all things European, but we're not actually Hungarian!
Ohh. I think btw this stories are a little bit creepy at first, but i'm actually hungarian, and i really grown up on these, and i really loved them. Mostly the music. Because of this started i cello lessons when i was 6. :)
Ooh cool, it's narrated by Tammy Grimes! :D
aka Princess Bedelia (Tammy Grimes voiced her in an animated adaptation of The Practical Princess).
PrincessDreamActress And Molly Grue in Last Unicorn, as well as Catrina from the 80s My Little Pony special.
7:06 Holy shit, his hand! O.o
I am of Hungarian descent and enjoying these beautiful stories. Thank you for posting them! :)
Well thank God, the Hedgehog doesn't have the voice of Jaleel White
I too watched these as a child and love watching them now with my own. James Earl Jones is also priceless and was perfect to host this show!
First time I took a glance at Janko I thought he was a very nice-looking lady... :x
I use to watch this program when I was a kid, I love hearing these old tales and wish I could find them on a DVD.
:I Hungarian Folk Tales, in... in.... English? :D
I like these stories. Do you think you can post more of those? Thanks.
This guys is just irresponsible. If he could do things right he wouldn't need any help!
Thank you SO much for posting these! I loved these as a kid and could never find more than two or three online. I even emailed PBS to see if they sold copies of Long Ago & Far Away. This just made my day.
This reminds me of the Bremen Musicians.
My pleasure! It's great to see all the people who appreciate these videos
You are truly a great person for posting these. Thank you so much.
This episode from Magyar Nepmesek sure brings back memories.
Brilliant! Thanks for posting this!
the hedgehog is so cute!

Poor guy :/ did you guys kill it or just find it like that? Looks like a giant pacific salamander btw
