I linked these in the part 2 thread, but in case anyone didn't see...

A very funny U.S. Acres cartoon where they try to do nursery rhymes. This was from the final season so it was never seen in syndication.

Wow, we sure do like using Youtube, don't we? Anywho, per Lee's request, time to start the thrid annual Youtube thread!

Now, in case you don't know what a Youtube is, and what's the purpose of these thread, to quote myself...

"Just find something classic cartoon related, or anything animation, or something crazy, and post the link here!"

Also, if you guys want to include videos from other video websites, like Dailymotion, Veoh, or the like, go right ahead.

Alright, to bring up our third cartoon, here's a underrated favorite of mine, COMpressed Hare (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5o1Ls2S_YwE)!

That short is hillarious-especially for the part in which the weasel is continuously refered to as "The weasel from last season's show who keeps trying to eat all our chickens" Sadly-the sequel to this short "The Return of the Incredibly Stupid Swamp Monster" is not nearly as funny as this one-also-the Incredibly Stupid Swamp Monster pulls a gag from "The Abominable Snow Rabbit" Hint-it involves constantly hugging a weasel!

Oh yeah-and the "Kiddie Korner" one is funny as heck!

Seems like the Garfield crew must have really liked using Aloysius Pig after the reaction to the hilarious "Kiddie Korner" episode. I've found several more eps featuring Aloysius for your delightful nature:

BTW, slightly OT: is it me or does Aloysius's design resemble Brett Koth's style when he took over the U.S Acres comic stirp?

BTW, slightly OT: is it me or does Aloysius's design resemble Brett Koth's style when he took over the U.S Acres comic stirp?
Yeah I saw that too. The designs in US Acres comics changed but this happened after the animated series started.

My guess is that the model sheets for the original characters are written in stone and the animators couldn't change. However newer characters could be drawn in a different style.

I was never a fan of "Powerpuff Girls," but I like this episode. It's a tribute to Jay Ward cartoons, complete with bad puns and June Foray voicing the villain.

Wow, that's a great parody, and Foray makes it even better. I thought I'd seen all of the Powerpuff Girls cartoons whether I liked it or not, but I have never seen this one! It's a shame Cartoon Network killed the Powerpuff Girls by over-exposing the show and promoting it as a girlie kids' show, the exact concept it was designed to make fun of! I hated it because it was on CN so often that I felt like it was being shoved down my throat...but compared to the crap CN has now, it was great. At least it had actual humor!

I think this marks the only time a Pulitzer prize-winning editorial cartoonist had a Saturday Morning show.

While not as good as the strip it was based on, some episodes were decent. I know Mike Peters tried to put out a DVD collection but had to put it on hold because of the copyright issue (the show is owned by MGM)

There will be one more new "Powerpuff" material airing on CN - a half-hour special that will air on the show's 10th anniversary. According to the creator on his deviantArt account (http://cmcc.deviantart.com/journal/) it will air on Jan. 19 and the special is being animated in Flash by the Foster's Home crew.

Foster's Home is pretty much gone, too, BTW (CN did a revamp and cancelled all the shows that started before Fall 2007.) The final batch of episodes is expected to air in February.

That episode is unusually short (less than 5 minutes). Was this edited or were the Garfield segments longer than usual?

Not that we're missing much if it was edited; most of the episode consists of reused animation (in this case, done on purpose).

[Glowworm]

Truthfully I was a great fan of the Powerpuff Girls. It unfortunately started to go downhill after the movie aired-the 5th and 6th season episodes were usually quite weak(I see a Funny Cartoon in Your Future is an exception) due to McCracken moving on to work on Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. Also-right after the 10th aniversary special to be aired on the 19th of January, January 20th-an entire DVD containing every PPG episode will be out. I honestly can't wait for that-although I won't be watching most of the later episodes from Seasons 5 and 6.

[Glowworm]

This is my favorite U.S Acres short "Bedtime Story Blues" in which Orson ends up having to read Booker and Sheldon Cinderella because it is the only book that they haven't been read. The only problem of course is that it's a "girl story" so Booker and Sheldon hillariously wreck it!

Kinda amused at how they tried to work around placing in the "Orson's Farm" logo that still gets cut off on both sides of the screen (still really don't care for that name personally but, eh..). Couldn't really spot anything out of the ordinary being edited out of this episode. but I get the impression someone may end up using it as poop material someday. :p

One of the six cartoons DePatie-Freleng outsourced to an overseas studio.

([URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o00yBBHtGGA"]a portuguese dubbed version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKJrcrvd56o) of the same cartoon).

Ironically, DePatie-Freleng never outsourced their television work; only their theatrical works and only for a brief time.

Note the fake names in the credits. And I believe Paul Winchell does some voice without screen credit.

[Alf]

Cbrubaker: This Blue Race cartoon was animated in Pegbar Productions, a studio based in Barcelona (my hometown!) and headed by American Bob Balser (misspelled 'Balsar' in the credits), which existed from 1972 to 1993. I also noticed the 'fake' names in the credits (looks like they prefered to use such fakes, rather than showing on screen the names of the actual Spanish animators!). Pegbar also made for DePatie-Freleng three Hoot Kloot shorts and one half of the hour-long special LUVCAST (aired on ABC´s 'The Saturday Superstar Movie').
It is true that DFE retained most of their work in-house, though I think that some of their later series (such as 1979´s Spiderwoman, made one year before they closed shop) were already farmed out to Korea or somewhere else.

I love that episode; I agree, Duckman was great! My two favorite episodes are "The One With Lisa Kudrow in a Small Role" (with Ajax voluntarily going to another planet to study the alien life there first-hand and getting acquainted with the fellow specimen..... which later leads to the extreme downfall of the same planet!:eek: ) and "Love! Anger! Kvetching!" (in which Duckman's uncle Moe Dorkin comes to visit with him to spend his final days with him making Duckman's life a misery, making things especially dicey during Duckman's "gentlemen's" poker game later that week).

I think I heard of that studio before. I think one such work I saw Balser's name attached to was a British cartoon series called 'Barney" (used to see those when Cartoon Network once showed them a decade ago). If anything, at least it brought some decent work to your part of the world!

I also noticed the 'fake' names in the credits (looks like they prefered to use such fakes, rather than showing on screen the names of the actual Spanish animators!).Course they could always give themselves clever anglicized nicknames while preserving their surnames as an option.

I may draw some heat for this, but it is animated and it sure as hell made me laugh. This is the sixth and final theatrical "Pokémon" short subject, "The Dancing Pokémon Secret Base" from 2003. There's a pretty heavy classic animation influence in this one - parts of it feel a lot like a Japanese version of a Tom and Jerry cartoon (especially the scene in the dining room in part two), and the animation is much more squash-and-stretchy than usual. Definitely worth a look!

Note that Chuck Jones is credited as a producer. Originally he was supposed to direct it (after the Grinch and Horton specials) but MGM shut their studio down, so the production was moved to DePatie-Freleng (run by Chuck's colleague at Warners', Friz Freleng) with Hawley Pratt directing.

As a result, this is the only time Jones was credited in a DFE production...not counting the later Looney Tunes specials that DFE made using clips of old WB cartoons.

God you're so negative. I would've loved eating at a place like this if I knew one existed in my youth.

Best i had was a restaurant close by that had the same architecture as an Ihop, though was named something else (bothering to enclose a pic of it here, since the place no longer exists as a big chain drug store took over the land).

This is not on YouTube, but what the hell.

Robot Jones (http://www.retrojunk.com/tv/videos/1575-whatever-happened-to-robot-jones/a/) (op and closing)

There's something about the show that I liked. Even back then I thought the story was boring but I remember that I really liked the loose animation style. It was different than the thick-lined, "retro" style that CN loves so much.

I remember thinking that the art style was similar to Paul Coker Jr's, so imagine my surprise when I read the credits. Apparently Coker DID work on the show as a character designer.

Strangely, Maxwell Atoms is also credited as a layout artist. Either Billy & Mandy wasn't renewed for another season yet or he was helping his friend out.

Filmation's in-house animation was unbelievably poor than their subcontracting Zorro to TMS turned out to be a vast improvement to their regular work animation-wise.

This would foreshadow TMS being the best animation house Tiny Toons and Animaniacs would ever be outsourced to (although for Startoons came close)

That was pretty freaky and rather a funky tune (West German TV often startles me with it's output)! Like that they acknowledge the original producers with those "Prod.-in Assoc. With" credits, let alone seeing an awkwardly drawn Magoo blinking his eyes at you! :D

Being OT, but within the country, there were these ads produced for a cigarette brand that featured a man who continues having problems in his everyday life, yet he takes a puff of a cigg, and all his troubles are gone. I find these to be quite effective for their time.

The earliest B&B appeared on MTV would've been the fall of '92 on Liquid TV, the TV series itself began around March of '93 I believe (this was all after the first animated shorts Judge produced made their way through Spike & Mike's Sick & Twisted Festival of Animation). This "Spring Break" special came out a year later, so you're correct.

In my opinion, this is the best cartoon DePatie-Freleng has ever produced.

It doesn't star the Pink Panther, nor the Inspector, nor that Aardvark. It starred Roland and Rattfink.

This is from a Brazillian copy, but that's OK, because this cartoon doesn't feature any dialogues except for one line, where one of the hippies say "Man, he must be having a bad trip" after Rattfink explodes.

(anyone with an English copy of the cartoon - who did the voice of the hippie? John Byner?)

Well, yes..... and, of course, Harpo Marx was famous for being the one Marx Brother who never spoke but only communicated through pantomime so any chance I had at THAT age of finding out he was really a man (even in terms of voice impersonation for an animated cartoon) through his voice would have been totally nil.

To be honest I can't stand this prototype for the blue racer-I prefer the version that eventually came to be his standard style. I dislike the voice Bob Holt gave the racer-especially that annoying laugh! I also don't know who was voicing the Japanese Beetle in this one(Perhaps Holt as well) but I find his voice to be too high for my taste too. I prefer Tom Holland's voice for the little guy-or the voice for him in "Hop and Chop" However-I will admit that the "Son of a Bee" gag is hillarious.

I'm pretty sure Holt did both characters' voices in that film.

Then again, not even DFE credited all their voice actors. In the final BR short, Little Boa Peep, there's definitely Paul Winchell voicing some of the characters, although only Larry Mann is credited (Paul did recieve screen credit in Killarney Blarney and Blue Aces Wild, tho...)

And Bonnie and Clyde (had to double check IMDB to be sure) was a Warner Bros.-
distributed film, so...

Now if someone could upload another movie inspired series of shorts, DFE's The
DogFather... (for some reason Ch 38 in Boston was showing one of the shorts
to fill out the rest of a movie slot a year or two back; good print, too...where are
these? Perhaps due to be re-issued, like the Inspector, A&A, etc have been, or
are they included in one of those Panther box sets?)

[Speedy Boris]

"Is that all you ever think about...carrots?"
Yeah, I laughed at that line. A shame they couldn't have more double entendres like that in these later WB shorts.

[Matt the Y]

Boy, great minds think alike. I too thought that was the best line in the whole cartoon!

That along with.....

"Those two were Bunny & Claude!"
"Say that again!"
"Say what again?"
"Those two were Bunny & Claude!"
"That's what I said!"

[Glowworm]

I loved Bunny and Claude as a kid-I still love them despite their very short run. The theme music was very catchy and the cartoons themselves were quite good.

I agree. The Sheriff seems to remind me of a cross between :ysam: and a human version of :foggy:, mainly due to the voice Mel Blanc used for him. I DO think this kind of scene would've been funnier: instead of just smashing the Sheriff's car as he lies there, as Bunny and Claude charge towards him the Sherrif goes "WhoooooAAAUGH!" in shock, then when Bunny and Claude smash the Sheriff's cruiser, you'd see the Sheriff and the car parts flying through the air as the Sheriff clutches onto his steering wheel, THEN he would fall to the ground and his badge would bounce off his nose.

"Chimp and Zee" is also on YouTube as well. Glowworm has been wanting to see this for some time ;)

I had all 17 shorts (with time codes) but alas I don't have it with me now.

You're not missing much, though. They were very much remakes of older WB shorts. One of the shorts, The Goose That Laid a Golden Egg, was almost a word-by-word remake of Freleng's Golden Yegg, complete with the closing line "Oh my aching back"

Friz Freleng was credited for story on that one, so he clearly had his older short in mind.

Even though Dogfather was a theatrical series (the very last one, in fact), I felt like I was watching a 1970s Sat. AM show.

one week-that's all I was asking for-one week to be able to wait until I could watch "Chimp and Zee" again. Yet no-the user got suspended.:( Sometimes I don't understand Youtube.

Well, you might as well get used to it. They cut and suspend users right and left if they put up too many "forbidden" videos (they, ah say, they have a skin about as thick as a sheet of paper that's been cut in half:foggy: ). They suspended Amoreska and another user who I subscribed to that I was really getting to enjoy in less than a week which I discovered last night as well. I'm getting just plain sick and fed up with this!

I'm starting to wish people would start turning more to DailyMotion in terms of uploading videos. As far as I know, that site is much more safe in terms of user longevity. And probably if more people were willing to actually give it a chance, it would get more traffic! YouTube surely is not "to be all and end all" in terms of this type of website.

[Glowworm]

Yeah usually I know in the back of my mind that many users may be suspended sooner or later-usually I always hope later.
:D The reason I don't understand Youtube is that some videos can stay up for months at a time-like Amoreska or other users until they're finally taken down yet others can stay up for much longer without even getting suspended.

[The "Chase"]

Yeah, that's Youtube for ya. I've been going there since November 2005 (long story), and by now, I'm used to it (might as well accept it than ***** about it). Oh well, as long as people have Media Converter and used on those videos, who knows?

[Speedy Boris]

Well, scores like that would have sounded weird accompanying Bugs Bunny in anything other than a "go-go" Kool-Aid commercial. Maybe what this tells us is that it's too bad Milt Franklyn died in 1962 rather than in 1968... Well I more meant catchy melodies in general, not necessarily go-go-ish beach rock music. I agree that putting such a thing over a Bugs Bunny short would feel out of place, especially given the orchestral melodies just a few months prior.

When NBC picked up "The Pink Panther Show", DFE made new animated segments to air inbetween the theatrical Pink Panther and Inspector shorts.

Here's one with the Inspector. He was usually used in skits where the French officer would lecture kids on public safety...while getting injured along the way.

The later Terrytoons, I admit, facinates me, because with the extremely low budgets and the number of staffs dwindling, directors now had to animate their cartoons all by themselves and the storyboards now doubled as layouts. Talk about cutting corners to the extreme.

Hmm-I've never seen this one before-IMO it wasn't the best-not enough violence!:D (Ironically that's what I use to dislike about Tom and Jerry) Another bizarre thing is that Jerry is actually a pet in this cartoon and the owner is too kind to Tom-not getting extremely upset when discovering that Tom is ONCE again wrecking the house. Perhaps Tom does this thing daily. Mind you the owner's behavior is better than Dietch's animal abusing ugly owner-yet he should at least have been more like Mammy Two Shoes who took no nonsense from Tom whenever he left the house in shambles.

[Glowworm]

I often think of Godfrey as such a bold man for what little he uses on the screen, yet he proves such a point about the effectiveness of the medium to say what you want. His later work of course went from advertising to children's films, as well as more personal films he made on the side just to have fun with the subject of sex. Sometimes the best not seen on screen can also prove to be really hilarious on it's own, such as 1980's "Instant Sex". I just love the outcome of that one.

Glad for that (though in widescreen I bet it was quite impressive for what they were able to put on film). Again, this is why we wish we could see these things restored on DVD for that reason. Hopefully when CBS puts out that Terrytoons DVD, they may consider adding one or two of these on there if possible.

I found a rare Disney video from 1982 and it was made by Italian Disney comics artist Romano Scarpa. There's even characters from the comics.

As an extension of my current thread on Blossom Dearie and "Schoolhouse Rock," (http://forums.goldenagecartoons.com/showthread.php?t=12655) here are two of her fondly remembered musical contributions to that series:

"Unpack Your Adjectives" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3j347DjSve0) ...

... and (IMO) best of all, "Figure Eight." (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jeq5a8bBh8c)

No question: Ms. Dearie's voice gave a new meaning to "golden honey." :)

That was pretty cool (not to mention the Italo Disco reworking of "Heigh Ho").

A Beary Family cartoon...in Portuguese (not that anyone would watch it if it's in English anyway).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5t607pe1_6s

How many animation mistakes are in this cartoon? The 2:30 mark in particular is jarring, where Charlie and Junior are as big as the house for some reason.

Holy crud! You're right; I'm guessing that was the result of a very bad overlaying layout shot. I thought "Skyscraper Caper" [WB/1968] was the only cartoon in which the "characters are as big as a house" blooper was made (Speedy being the character in that one who has a house the size for himself).

I'm beginning to suspect that the rumors of Paul J. Smith actually being legally blind in his last few years as a cartoon director are, in fact, true!

Interestingly enough, Sid Marcus wrote this one (Paul Smith, of course, directed it).

When Teletoon Retro is on the last years of Walter Lantz studio with the Woody Woodpecker Show, it's time for a never-before seen Chilly Willy cartoon: Chilly's Cold War http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmcMXjh0uWs&feature=channel

I like how Smedley says to the audience "That's you know who!"

Instead to watch the odd HD animated sitcom lineup, i spend my night to watch some horrible english dubs of Dragon Ball Z. Here's the one who certainly win the WTFness price in dubs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbi9jmK83_o&feature=related

This is makes the Paul J. Smith and the 40's Columbia cartoons classic. :D

Animation wise, I'm not sure. Cheap laughs, agreed!

And if you thought THAT was bad, search around Youtube. You'll pine for the acting ability of the Terrytoons guys!

Terrytoons was good in comparaison to this horrible dub.
One fine example about how the Paul Terry's studio could be unique is during the later years. Flebus was one of their finest shorts with great abstract arts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owev_Iw1kQw&feature=related

Let me just state that I do not like "Total Drama Island". However, these promos from Cartoon Network Brazil are awesome.

Here's a textbook example of how Famous Studios changed over the years:

Me Musical Nephews (December 1942) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_BQsGUiegA)

Although it's black and white, the gags here have a quick and consistent pace, even leaving room for a few surprises.

Riot in Rhythm (November 1950) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxcTMP9G2fU)

With the only purpose to make another color cartoon, the gags here are much slower, thus everything loses its impact, including 4th wall jokes.

I remember seeing Riot in Rhythm first before the other, and somehow it clicked far better watching Me Musical Nephews in the end as the brisk pace of those gags felt fresh than what they tried to do 8 years later. Why they even think they could re-do the same cartoon again I'll never know (but as you said, probably to fulfill whatever quota was at hand). Notice Kneitel gave himself writer's credit for the later short too, guess as to not mention the previous writers for the other short while making it seem like a new cartoon in the process.

That's a pretty funky opening if I do say so myself (that last shot did get used as some cute bit on the TV set at the end of the usual opening sequence), nice to see there was a bit more of that footage than I had ever saw before.

Being reminded of some other opening sequence where they used the Ruby-Spears cartoon series designs instead. Couldn't find a decent copy of this other than this French (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mFpBFxH3eQ) one to show.

This, along with "Hurts and Flowers", was a satire on the growing Vietnam war. Probably the gutsiest cartoon DePatie-Freleng ever did.

Three Looney Tunes-themed Cartoon Network Groovies (remember when they'd run these between shows? They always had one after the three-hour version of "The Looney Tunes Show" on Saturday mornings):

"Mars Forever": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jt2KyPDnqmc
"Wascally Wemix": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LM9fhivTmHg
"Pork Jam": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjbHBB8vGMY

There's a fourth one featuring Pepe le Pew, but I wasn't able to find it.

[cbrubaker]

Those Groovies used to air all the time in CN Japan. They might still be airing them, in fact.

Some vignettes created for the Pink Panther Show on NBC, featuring the Panther interacting with the Aardvark and the Inspector.

I think there was a wasted opportunity when MGM didn't release these bumpers into the DVD as bonuses. There were bumpers made for each of the different Pink Panther Show incarnations from its NBC run. There were even bumpers made with Misterjaw and the Texas Toads.

Yeah, that clip was up there for awhile. Boy, look how off-model the gang is! They should've give all the Looney Tunes animation to Virgil Ross or any other people at Filmation who used to work at Warners. At least they would stay mainly on-model in this limited animation.

Ah yes. This had to be the most requested DePatie-Freleng cartoon ever. I often got emails asking me where they can find this special.

Anyway, I had a 16mm transfer of this cartoon (from the Films Incorperated syndication print) and wow, apparently the version I had was incomplete.

In the syndication copy they actually made the ending shorter. For one thing, they took out the animation where the girl regained her ability to walk. The edited version just showed the girl waking up and then cutting to her going to the window and seeing the animals sing (I assumed she got in her wheelchair that was off-screen). Then fade out.

Must've been for time reason. Pretty strange to edit out a HAPPY ending...
