Customer Reviews of Cartoon Crack-Ups
I love those meeces to pieces! Why don't we see more of these cartoons on the nostalgia channels? Wow, they're wonderful. As for Pixie, Dixie and Jinx...I didn't realize how much I missed them. The real test: my six-year-old wants to watch and rewatch this DVD. Huckleberry Hound and Top Cat are also welcome, as is the classic Yogi Bear episode. But I'm not sure what Scooby Doo is doing here. Wasn't that show a little later? And isn't it overplayed and totally available everywhere? It just seems out of place. Admittedly, the Flintstones are easily found these days, but the items on this DVD from Fred and Wilma are gems. Good picture quality and sound, very fun disc.
Fun...but some problems, too!
I enjoyed the majority of this DVD, however, I do have some issues with it as well:
1. Under the sketch gallery, the selections change at their own pace. The forward and back keys do not work, so you must move through at a pre-selected pace.
2. The "Top Cat" theme under the jukebox is truncated.
3. The "Jetsons" episode includes an episode placard between the opening credits and the actual show. These episode placards were not used in the original broadcast...they were an addition years later, when the studio tried unsuccessfully to mix newly drawn episodes in with the old ones for syndication.
4. The opening and closing credits to "Top Cat" are extremely soft.
5. The jukebox selections for Yogi and Huckleberry were not for their shows, but for individual episodes only.
I also have to wonder why "Scooby-Doo" was included with all of these early 60's cartoons.
That being said, I'd love to see them bring out more 60's H-B cartoons in this format.
More, Please!
I agree that this is indeed a very nice starter package. A follow-up DVD should definitely include the characters mentioned by other reviewers, but don't forget to also include Wally Gator, another great Daws Butler vocal creation. Oh, fuddle-dee-doo!
