Favorite Cartoon/Animated Series (TV/feature films and other stuff)

Those were the best ones.  There was one where he kept building rockets to try and get the Roadrunner but they would either explode on run out of fuel when he was over a canyon.  I don't know the title of it.

Like the "Essential Bugs Bunny" DVD last year, Warner Home Video will release  "Essential Daffy Duck" on November.


Good selection of vintage shorts. "My Little Duckaroo" could be replaced with "Drip Along Daffy". Maybe a few more '40's Daffy...

The only new to DVD short is "Porky's Duck Hunt" from 1937.


Might get it when the price is down...



There's rumors of the "Platinum Collection" aimed more towards collectors/completest, which will be exclusively for Blu-Ray.

Added: The content from The Looney Tunes Platinum Collection, have been previously released on DVD except for about 4 shorts.



Classic theatrical shorts:

1. Porky's Duck Hunt (Daffy's debut/New to DVD)
2. Daffy Duck & Egghead
3. The Daffy Doc
4. Plane Daffy
5. The Great Piggy Bank Robbery
6. Nasty Quacks
7. Book Revue
8. Duck Amuck
9. Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2 Century
10. The Scarlet Pumpernickel
11. My Little Duckaroo
12. A Star Is Bored
13. Deduce, You Say
14. Ali Baba Bunny
15. Robin Hood Daffy

Pepe' Le Pew will be released on a stand alone DVD from the "Looney Tunes Super Stars" series.

"Louvre Come Back To Be" is one of the better '60's shorts, which a male rival actually tries to confront Pepe. While the skunk may or may not be Pepe, "Odor of the Day" is an underrated short with a dog & skunk fighting over bed. While debatable, I doubt it since the skunk doesn't even skip and doesn't share the same characteristics nor sounded French when he spoke briefly when the dog & himself sneezed ("Gesundheit")

Coming to DVD: The Complete Pepé Le Pew September 3, 2011 12:05 am


There’s hope for DVD yet. Our friends at TVonDVD.com just revealed plans by Warner Home Video to release a new single disc DVD collection in their Looney Tunes Super Stars series – this one solely devoted to Pepe Le Pew.

To the best of my knowledge, Pepé Le Pew: Zee Best Of Zee Best will contain 17 cartoons (despite what the box art says) – including all 15 Chuck Jones’ Pepe cartoons, plus a Freleng Tweety in which he appears in cameo (Dog Pounded), and an odd Art Davis outing (Odor Of The Day). The DVD goes on sale December 27th. The titles included are:

Odor-Able Kitty (1945), Scent-imental Over You (1947), Odor of the Day (1948), For Scent-imental Reasons (1949), Scent-imental Romeo (1951), Little Beau Pepé (1952), Wild Over You (1953), Dog Pounded (1954), The Cats Bah (1954), Past Perfumance (1955), Two Scent’s Worth (1955), Heaven Scent (1956), Touché and Go (1957), Really Scent (1959), Who Scent You? (1960), A Scent of the Matterhorn (1961), Louvre Come Back to Me! (1962)

The #1 cartoon of all time.

Mighty Mouse meets some Meddling Kids, a scene from the episode "Don't Change That Dial" (1987)

[Woops]

"Beavis & Butt-Head" hasn't changed much, except for current pop culture references and their tv set being more updated.

The "Twilight" spoof was hilarious despite that it's been overdone, though the "Crying" episode felt more like it should've been a season finale for some reason. Also music videos are back, well for the commentaries.

The only flaw would be the reference of "Harry Potter", which they mentioned Hogwarts during a music video featuring a telepathic kid, since I don't think they'd be that familair with the film series outside of the title.  Then again, they did snuck in a theatre to watch "Twilight" to hook-up...


Full episode on MTV site



"Good Vibes" was mediocre, though chuckled on a few scenes featuring the lifegaurd thinking the two friends are a couple. Though mostly unfunny. The first episode is very much overdone in highschool sitcoms: a new student/outsider tries to impress a girl who happens to have a jerk for a boyfriend.

"Beavis & Butt-Head" hasn't changed much, except for current pop culture references and their tv set being more updated.

I'm glad Mike Judge didn't change it much.  When you have something that works stick with it.  I was a little worried that MTV would get too involved and try and take control, force him to make changes and that would have ruined it.  It was like the show picked up right where it left off.

Watched "Gumby's Christmas Classics", which featured Holiday themed Gumby shorts for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and few featuring the claymated character playing around toy trains and birds. 

Rather than on Nick, Nicktoons, Cartoon Network, or Boomerang, it was on some random religious channel "KTV" I stumbled upon the listings.

"Santa Witch"  featuring Pokey and a seal named Sybil, who's a prototype for Goo. Probably the only Gumby short without the main character.

Used to watch reruns as a kid in the early 1990's, though I have a DVD featuring some public domain episodes.

I remember there being a Bugs Bunny Christmas special on once when I was a kid and I can't remember it being on again.  It had to have been around 1977 or 1978.

"Bugs Bunny's Looney Christmas Tales" (1979)

Selected segments have appeared on the Saturday morning packages and "Bugs Bunny's Christmas Carol" have appeared on Cartoon Network's Looney Tunes hour. The special is featured as a bonus one one of the Golden Collection DVD sets.

"Fright Before Christmas" feauting Bugs and Taz aired as filler during Boomerang's Christmas block along with "Bedtime For Sniffles" and "Holiday For Shoestrings". Perhaps the first time Looney Tunes have aired on the channel for a while despite that Turner networks are owned by Time Warner.

Unfortunately, "Freeze Frame" featuring Coyote & Road Runner wasn't shown. Personally, it's one of the very few better made-for-tv Looney Tunes shorts.

1984 CBS promo featuring a block of Christmas specials includingThe Grinch, Charlie Brown, and Bugs Bunny

"How the Grinch Stole Christmas" airs on Cartoon Network, though not sure if it aired on network television within the past few years since the WB merged with UPN.

"A Charlie Brown Christmas" still airs annually on tv, which have been shown on ABC for a while.

"Bugs Bunny's Looney Christmas Tales" (1979)

I knew it had to be sometime around then.  I only remember it being on the one time.  I was in the fourth grade then.

I remember a cartoon series that was on Saturday mornings I think in or around 1983.  It was called "Dungeons & Dragons" and it sort of followed the Scooby Doo forumula.  I saw a DVD collection of it at Wal Mart a couple of weeks ago and it brought back some memories.
