Editorial Review:
From the producer of "Anne of Green Gables":
"Family programming filled with warmth and charm...." - LOS ANGELES TIMES
This 4-Disc DVD Boxset is the complete third season of "Road to Avonlea" / "Avonlea" (as shown on the Disney channel). Olivia's (Mag Ruffman) simple wedding plans get out of hand as Hetty (Jackie Burroughs) takes over and manages to alienate everyone in the family including Sara (Sarah Polley). Felix's (Zachary Bennett) humorous attempt at making money turns tragic as his horse, Blackie, dies in an accident. Avonlea hires an effervescent and charming new schoolteacher (Christopher Lloyd), whose unorthodox approach to teaching, inspires the children, but leaves the parents suspicious. Sara trades places with Jo Pitts, a street-smart waif who passes as Sara's double. However, as Sara leaves PEI for adventure, she only finds danger and mystery alongside Gus Pike (Michael Mahonen); while Felicity (Gema Zamprogna) lies about her family background in order to gain admission into a prestigious ladies college. On a sad note, this volume ends with the death of one of Avonlea's most beloved townsfolk, Marilla Cuthbert (Colleen Dewhurst); tying this episode into "Anne of Green Gables - The Sequel" and "Anne of Green Gables - The Continuing Story."

Road to Avonlea: Season 3 Reviews:
Road To Avonlea is wonderful! 
2009-11-30 - My daughters (ages 11 and 7) and I love the Avonlea series! You can't ask for a more family friendly show with many well presented life lessons. The shows are so well written and encompass the action, comedy, and tragedy of every-day life on Prince Edward Island circa the early 1900's.
Road to Avonlea!!
2008-08-19 - I loved it!!!! Even better than season 1 and 2!!! But, of course I loved 1 and 2 too. Wonderful movies to watch with family and friend.
You must see the two-part from Season 3
2008-01-15 - The episode "When she was bad, she was horrid" features the amazing acting talents of Sarah Polley, playing two parts, the sweet Sara Stanley, and the pick-pocket Jo Pitts. The young actress goes much deeper than some crude behavior and language. She walks, talks, even looks different in the two roles. Watch her face, and observer her, and you'll be impressed.
Of course, the rest of the episodes are classic, warm, Avonlea that we all love. The characters are flawed, but forgiving and seeking forgiveness. Would that the world were more like Avonlea.
