Can I make a confession?
I am a Loony-Toon-Aholic. I grew up watching the classic Warner Bros. cartoons with Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Foghorn Leghorn and the rest. Now you can't find them on TV any more. I guess young people don't find those old 'toons relevant or entertaining.
Well, I just blew $250 on the "Golden Collection" of classic Loony-Toon cartoons. In addition to 300 classic cartoons from the 1940s-1950s the CDs include interviews with writers and artists and many cartoon shorts made for theatrical release. Even some of the films made during WW II to support the war effort are included in the set.
All the cartoons are unedited and have not been made PC as was common when they were on TV in the 1980s and 1990s. All of the old racial jokes and scenes of violence are intact.
I can hardly wait to start watching them.
Is this kooky?

Got the "Mickey Mouse- The Wartime Years" boxed DVD set- to my surprise, one of the bits is actually the animated instruction manual for care and firing of the .55 Boys Anti-Tank Rifle! Re: Looney tunes- Working with commercial explosives, there has been a time or two when a shot misfires- and you will frequently hear "Where is the ka-boom? There was supposed to be an earth shattering ka-boom!"[:p] 0 -
Don't mess with the Rooster, Boy ! 0 -
I bought them from Amazon.com. They came as a 5 part set and each part was around $47. About .90 per cartoon.
I laugh all the time although I usually sit in my chair rather than the couch.0 -
