Ludwig........ bizarre yet entertaining!!!!!

Ludwig was a 70's cult kids classic, it's rare and hard to find but very entertaining!!! It's about this strange alien that is shaped like an egg!!! He lands one day in the woods and becomes friends with all the animals, and helps them out every time they get into trouble!!!

13 episodes were made back in the 70's, they are 1. The Arrival, 2. Hiccups, 3. The Hooter, 4. Glue, 5. Kites, 6. Tennis, 7. The Swing, 8. Skating, 9. Sculptor, 10. Umbrellas, 11. The Ball, 12. The Coin and 13. Bubbles!!!

I give Ludwig 8/10 because it was bizarre and entertaining and i like the old style animation and sound, really good stuff.
