“Enter at your own peril, past the bolted door where impossible things may happen the world has never seen before!”

Cartoon Network’s got a secret formula that’s got a little bit of ‘ha and a little bit of ‘ho, and unlike will.i.am, they want everybody to know because the geniuses at WBDHE have made their greatest invention yet!

For the first time ever, Dexter’s Laboratory: The Complete Series is coming to DVD! And when they say it’s complete, they mean COMPLETE – this set contains every episode AND the tv movie, Ego’s Trip, which believe it or not has never been officially released on Region 1 DVD (the last time this thing has been on home video was on VHS in the early 2000s, nor is it legally streaming anywhere in the U.S. We don’t got the data on what extras if any this set has just yet, but here’s hoping that like The Powerpuff Girls: The Complete Series set it will include some bonus content like the original What-a-Cartoon pilot, the “banned” episode Rude Removal, a bunch of bumps, and all the music videos they made for the series from artists like They Might Be Giants, Price Paul, and will.i.am (yes, seriously, look these up if you’ve never listened to them – they’re a nostalgia trip, but also, it’s insane how big a deal this series was that mega-star artists like those made songs for it back in it’s heyday).

Dexter’s Laboratory needs no introduction to anyone with a checkered past, but for any zoomers not in the know, you’ll want to tune into Dexter, the world’s youngest inventor, so you can join him for his crazy adventures! Imagined up by real-world animation genius Genndy Tartakovsky, one of the most celebrated and prolific creators in animation for the past 30 years with creations including Samurai Jack, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Sym-Bionic Titan, Hotel Transylvania, Primal, and Unicorn: Warriors Eternal, Dexter’s Laboratory was Cartoon Network’s first Cartoon Cartoon and original series not based around repackaging/reusing existing IP, a successful experiment in original programming that paved the way for decades more to come. “What-A-Cartoon” indeed! So grab a seat on your couch with all your justice friends, chow down on fresh-baked muffins like a king, and binge every episode all night long until “omlette-du-fromage” is all you can say, enjoying all the gloom, and doom, while things go boom, in Dexter’s Lab!

Check out more deets and text on Dee Dee and Dex’s set in the official press release below, and let us know in the comments or on our socials whether you’re excited for the set and interested in seeing a review on the site come June, because we’ll talk about Dexter faster than the speed of “Mock 5!”
