I did. At least the ones that had enough of the 1950's cartoons to justify buying. But like everybody I have very specific tastes, and I don't want to just buy anything the studio puts out for the sake of being a collector when I'll never watch it. If that kind of attitude among buyers makes...
Agree. The preoccupation with re-releasing a few favorited titles over and over and forcing buyers to double dip is maddening when so much of the HB library remains unreleased in any format, especially the 1970's cartoons. I won't buy anything I've already bought, bluray or not. When WB...

Even Yogi and Huck and Hokey are funny and watchable, though, when compared to Ruff and Ready, which does not hold up well today. Those three minute minisodes have no sustainability. Even watching half a dozen or more back to back is tedious, whereas I could watch a bunch of Hokey Wolf...

And count me as another vote for BJ and the Bear.
Guilty pleasures I wouldn't mind seeing on dvd are The New WKRP in Cincinnati, the handful of episodes of Aloha Paradise that were made...
Goldie Gold is definitely on Youtube. That's where I found it. Goldie Gold and Action Jack Quality's not bad. You can use WinX to batch download a Youtube playlist so you don't have to worry about copying and pasting a bunch of links. With a decent cheap or free DVD burning software you can...
Some notes on the recent discussions. The Jeannie prints on Crackle are horrible. Don't know where they came from, but they are worse than bootleg quality. You can get a pretty nice print of Jeannie from Mantronix Retro Video, if so inclined, but I'm sure there are other places.
Re...
Not really. About all they share in common is that they take place under water. Sealab doesn't have anything to do with teenagers or creepy villains or solving mysteries. It's an adventure show that takes place in an environmental marine laboratory under the ocean, involving a crew of...
I know that may have been the typical practice in some shows of the time, including Space Race and Laff-a-lympics to name a couple of others, but splitting 30 minute shows up into alternating segments never made much sense to me, and still doesn't. I guess an intermission for the Laff-a-lympics...
I'm not one to ever think of buying a Smurfs DVD, let alone a set, but it shocks me as well that there's no complete Smurfs on DVD or Blu-ray. That show was immensely popular and changed the way the networks and animation studios approached Saturday morning television forever, and probably led...
Ah, thanks. With Godzilla costing about $400 for the complete first season now, when you can find it, and Jana unavailable, it would be nice if somehow a complete series of the show could be released.
Really? I can't tell much difference at all between the appearance of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection and Platinum Collection cartoons myself on a 60 inch screen, which is the only reference I have to go by in that regard. Maybe there is a difference on bigger screens, but any brighter or...
But those have mostly been major characters--Scooby, The Flintstones, Jonny Quest, Josie, Space Ghost, The Jetsons. So far, the more obscure titles haven't been released or re-released on bluray. There is a gap there that Warner is simply not filling by focusing on a particular line of titles...
That would be an extremely disappointing circumstance if it turns out to be the case. I can't believe Warner/HB and whoever else owns the rights would just let the film elements rot away in a vault when they could be making money from them and introducing those cartoons to a new generation of...
Hi. I am new to the forum and have enjoyed reading through this thread as I am a keen collector of classic cartoons, particularly theatrical and television cartoons that aired on TV in the 1970s and early 1980s, which was my formative era of toon watching. I've been methodically collecting the...
