Wholesome Family Entertainment - A Love Story!

Nothing warms my heart and soul like a 'love story'. My Friend Flicka is most definitely a love story. My hope is that this series inspires a deeper appreciation and respect regarding the human/equine bond in the younger and future generations as it did in me. There is a Facebook page and web site that provides excellent resource information on this TV Series (just do a web search). I'm disappointed however that Shout Factory's release only included 2 episodes from Fox's masters as the series went public domain back in the 90's and doubtlessly they didn't want to invest anymore than necessary in production costs for their release..
