Shorts that CN/Boomerang has never aired

[Timber Wolf]

Does anyone have a list of the WB shorts that Cartoon Network or Boomerang has never aired?

[Greg Method]

Based on the older list from the site here, I believe the current list is as follows:

All Bosko cartoons except “Bosko the Talk-Ink Kid”
All Buddy cartoons except “Mr. and Mrs. Is the Name”
The B&W Merrie Melodies from late 1933-1935
A Cartoonist's Nightmare
Hollywood Capers
The Fire Alarm
The Phantom Ship
Haunted Mouse
Saps in Chaps
Joe Glow, the Firefly
Hobby Horse-Laffs
Porky's Ant
Which is Witch
Two Crows From Tacos
Norman Normal
Injun Trouble

[JDWeil]

Some of these were shown on Late Night In Black and White

Does this mean that CN has aired some of the Censored 11, Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips and Tokio Jokio?

[Cool Cat]

Norman Normal aired in Cartoon Network. Look at pictures in this page:

This should mean that someone has taped Norman Normal from Cartoon Network.

The following shorts have never aired:
- All of the Censored 11
- Daffy the Commando
- The Early Worm Gets the Bird
- Flop Goes the Weasel
- Tom Tom Tomcat
- Dog Gone South (?)
- Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips
- Tokio Jokio
- All Inki cartoons

At least 99 1/2% true, but IIRC, Daffy the Commando did air as part of the "Toon Heads/Wartime Cartoons" special ... :confused:

[Matthew Hunter]

I seem to recall seeing (or at least reading here) that Tom Tom Tomcat finally did air eventually. You can also add to the list most of the 1990's cartoons. They've aired "Bunny Snatchers", "Box Office Bunny", "Blooper Bunny", "Pullet Surprise", "Carrotblanca", "Hare To Eternity"...and I think that's all. They haven't shown:

"Chariots Of Fur"
"Another Froggy Evening"
"Superior Duck"
"Father of the Bird"

Or any of the recent Larry Doyle productions.

And have they ever shown "Robinson Crusoe Jr."?

[Geezil]

So much for filling the cracks in the Geezil Memory Bank. According to the epguides site, at least, that was in fact Scrap Happy Daffy, and I may need a vacation again. :o Sorry, folks.

[Martin Juneau]

The six Doyle cartoons: "Wizard of Ow", "Museum Scream", "Hare and Loathing in Las Vegas", "Cock-a-Doodle Duel", "Duck Dodgers in Attack of the Drones" and "My Generation G-G-Gap"

[CueBallCat79]

Tops With Pops
Feedin' the Kiddie
The Egg and Jerry

Cinemascope remakes of older T&J cartoons sure but they still never aired them to the best of my knowledge.

His Mouse Friday amazingly aired once and only once on CN, though I can't remember if A Mouse In the House has ever aired. I believe it may have, but I could be wrong.

[Studio Toledo]

Those pics came from a CN UK airing.

That's true. I have an AVI I downloaded years back with that bug, giving me some idea that it came from somepalace else. Don't understand why they don't try to get this on "Toon Heads" here.

[Martin Juneau]

Blitz Wolf
Uncle Tom's Bungalow
Half-Pint Pygmy
and probably others...

We're sound forget Tex Avery today :mad:

[BloodyChamp]

FWIW "All This and Wabbit Stew" aired on TBS once between Tom and Jerry's Funhouse and a baseball game that started a few minutes late :bugs2:

Blitz Wolf aired on Toonheads.

What about Eatin' Off The Cuff???

[J. B. Warner]

FWIW "All This and Wabbit Stew" aired on TBS once between Tom and Jerry's Funhouse and a baseball game that started a few minutes late :bugs2:

Guess that explains why clips of the cartoon were also used in TNT's "What's Up Doc? A Salute to Bugs Bunny" (both Turner-owned networks, ya know).

[Matthew Hunter]

Blitz Wolf aired on Toonheads.

What about Eatin' Off The Cuff???

That cartoon aired on the Bob Clampett Show, and was shown a couple times on Saturday mornings as well, surprisingly left alone and uncolorized!

[Jon Cooke]

The following shorts have never aired:
- Tom Tom Tomcat
- Dog Gone South (?)



I can confirm that "Tom Tom Tomcat" and "Dog Gone South" have both aired on Boomerang in the United States.

You can add "Robinson Crusoe Jr." and "Africa Squeaks" to the list, too.


-Jon

[Javeman]

I'm pretty sure "Africa Squeaks" and "Robinson Crusoe Jr." have never aired on the Turner networks.

My only exposure to "Robinson" was when a redrawn print aired down here on a local network, dubbed to spanish. Probably not the best way to catch a B&W short but at least I knew what the cartoon was about.

EDIT: Oh dear, Jon posted the exact same cartoons I mentioned at almost the exact same time! WHAT ARE THE ODDS!!!

[Jon Cooke]

I'm pretty sure "Africa Squeaks" and "Robinson Crusoe Jr." have never aired on the Turner networks.

WB did send CN a copy of "Africa Squeaks" for use on THE BOB CLAMPETT SHOW but it never aired (but clips were shown). Clips of "Hobby Horse-Laffs" and (I believe) "Robinson Crusoe Jr." were used in the Norm McCabe episode of TOONHEADS.

[ltnut]

A few weeks back TCM showed His Mouse Friday (Uncut I assume) before the movie His Girl Friday. I just happened to be flipping across the dial and saw it.

[Greg Method]

Sorry about the glaring omissions, gang, as the modified list was from my own files and I obviously also removed shorts that had aired elsewhere or were no longer on my checklist. Again, sorry about that.

[Tom41]

They haven't shown:

"Chariots Of Fur"
"Another Froggy Evening"
"Superior Duck"
"Father of the Bird"


Boomerang UK have definitely shown "Chariots of Fur", "Another Froggy Evening" (in anamorphic widescreen) and "Superior Duck". Not sure about "Father of the Bird" though.

With LT/MM, they tend to stick to post-1948 ones only. Having said that though, I have seen very rarely an earlier cartoon. They have been known to show "I haven't got a hat" and "Coo Coo Nut Groove" a couple of times!
To my knowledge, Boomerang (or Cartoon Network) in the UK have NEVER aired a B/W cartoon, either original, colorized or redrawn.

[Miss Marnie]

At least 99 1/2% true, but IIRC, Daffy the Commando did air as part of the "Toon Heads/Wartime Cartoons" special ... :confused:

No, they were in clips. I remember they showed the part where Daffy clobbers Hitler near the end (and I think I mentioned before that I watched this cartoon as a child, not knowing that it was a WWII themed short or it had references to such a reprehensible figure in history. I only liked the cartoon because of Daffy).

Anyway, DTC was shown in restored clips on one of the LTGC documentaries.

[Miss Marnie]

Blitz Wolf
Uncle Tom's Bungalow
Half-Pint Pygmy

Blitz Wolf aired on CN's ToonHeads WWII special, only it was slightly edited: The "No Japs Allowed" sign had "Japs" digitally covered over in yellow and the part where the pigs bomb Tokyo (after the long cannon gag) cut after the cannon's barrel was shown [the second edit was done so perfectly, I didn't know anything was missing until my sister said, "Where's the part where they bomb that island?"]. The rest are correct, as far as I know.

We're sound forget Tex Avery today :mad:

What?

[Billy]

To my knowledge, Boomerang (or Cartoon Network) in the UK have NEVER aired a B/W cartoon, either original, colorized or redrawn.

In March 2003 Boomerang showed a redrawn 'It's Got Me Again!', as part of a a series on Oscar-winning or Oscar-nominated cartoons: http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?t=71490
I missed most of the marathon, though, so I don't know how many others aired.

[Timber Wolf]

Thanks!!!

[Javeman]

I forgot of another short that has never aired: "Confusions of a Nutzi Spy"

[Daffyfan2004]

Those pics came from a CN UK airing.

The following shorts have never aired:
- All of the Censored 11
- Daffy the Commando
- The Early Worm Gets the Bird
- Flop Goes the Weasel
- Tom Tom Tomcat
- Dog Gone South (?)
- Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips
- Tokio Jokio
- All Inki cartoons

That would be a good idea for a whole disk on LTGC Volume 4.

[Nick]

Has "Senorella And The Glass Huarache" ever aired on CN in the US? I remember it was shown once, and possibly only once, on CN UK. Despite being quite mild in terms of stereotypes, it is quite rare on TV.

Rare? Please. Nickelodeon used to air Senorella and the Glass Huarache (along with Daffy/Speedy cartoons) ad nauseum (maybe not ad nauseum, but definitely a lot for a cartoon that supposedly would scream "Racist!" or "anti-Mexican!")

Hey, who wants to bet that this will be on the next Golden Collection if they have a DVD featuring fairy tale parodies?

[Kaleido]

Hey, who wants to bet that this will be on the next Golden Collection if they have a DVD featuring fairy tale parodies?Somehow I get the idea the one-shots produced post-1960 won't be restored until after everything else has.

So, I'm willing to bet it won't.

Yeah, you're right. People want the cartoons from the '30's up to the late '50's. The '60's is when LTs "jumped the shark" (went downhill due to a gimmick [usually the birth of a child, someone dying, a "very special" episode, someone coming out of the closet, or a Ted McGinley appearance] or a sudden change in creative control or management) and I have been referring to this as the bottom of the barrel (along with the banned and censored cartoons).

You think for the final LTGC that it'll be shaped like a barrel with Porky bursting through and saying, "It's the b-b-b-bottom of the barrel, folks!" That would rule.
