Sep 16, 2020 Today's Viewing: "Runaway Ralph". Based On The Beverly Cleary's 1970 Sequel Novel Of The Same Name To Her 1965 Novel "The Mouse & The Motorcycle", This 2-Part ABC Kidtime Special Aired On October 29, 1988 On The ABC Weekend Special. For A Kids' Film, It's Alright. The Story Seems Harmless When We Venture Further, But The Film Itself Has 1 Flaw. The Story Seems Kinda Weird; The Script Fails To Explain Why The Characters Do What They Do: Like Why Does Ralph, A Mouse, Ride A Motorcyce? Where Did He Get It? Etc. Other Examples Could Be About His Connection With Garfield, Played By Fred Savage ("The Wonder Years" From 1988-1993) / "Little Monsters" In 1989); Ralph Could Just Stay With Garfield Instead Of Returning Back To His Siblings & Uncle Lester, Garfield Would Give Ralph Everything A Mouse Could Want. But With Lack Of Explanations Aside, The Story Is Weird But Harmless, It Doesn't Get Away With Bad Messages, & The Stop-Motion Animation On The Animal Characters Are Nice; The Mice Look Natural, & Castro The Cat Can Be A Little Scary For Kids. So Yeah, ABC Kidtime's Spin On Beverly Cleary's 1970 Novel Is Another Example Of What It Appears To Be: An Average Kids' Film. Nothing Special. There's Not Much To Offer In Explaining Things, But It's Alright. Maybe Give It At Least A Viewing, & You Be The Judge. See more Jul 30, 2012 The whole thing was a little odd. It was fun seeing Fred Savage and Sara Gilbert when they were so young, but the story itself was weird - I wouldn't watch it again.
