Top ten recurring Looney Tunes characters who appeared in only eight shorts or less during the classic years (and who aren't Marvin the Martian or Tasmanian Devil): 10. Sniffles 9. Witch Hazel 8. Rocky 7. Col. Rimfire 6. Egghead (I'm not counting the fact that he evolved into Elmer Fudd)...

Here's a commercial I recently saw for the first time in years: In it, it's implied at the end that the Simpsons characters are playing Simpsons games, but then Lisa and Maggie are both handling controllers for the NES, and neither Bart vs. the Space Mutants or Bart vs. the World are...

Recently, in the "will Looney Tunes ever find success again?" thread, DrTooth mentioned that it seems like the classic Looney Tunes shorts were always more widely shown on television, but the classic Disney cartoons were just a little more popular. And in time for Halloween (okay, a little late...

It also seems like casual fans know the titles of more Disney cartoons than Looney Tunes. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like Steamboat Willie and The Three Little Pigs are known by titles. It would be great to try to determine, between Disney and WB, which one had the higher number of "really...

Especially when Petunia Pig was a major recurring character, and she was only in a few shorts (Melissa was only in two, at the time I only knew of one, and doubt I would have got the connection if I hadn't read it online... And there was an interview with somebody from the show who, when talking...

A while back, I posted somewhere that I wondered if some of Angelica's scenes were meant for Susie, as Angelica wasn't really mean to the babies. I cited the scene where she gives them tips on creating "monster food" in Feeding Hubert, which seemed like she was genuinely helping as opposed to...

Rowlf, Scooter, and Skeeter were all also left out of packaging artwork on the old Muppet Babies videos put out by Jim Henson Video as well.

I believe I've talked about that idea on the forum before. What I'd really like is a Toonheads-style documentary series on Sesame Street, with each episode focusing on a different thing (people who worked on the show, characters, eras, recurring segments).

I'd rather they show the actual clips than do new animations based on the old ones (could this be to make them better for a widescreen film?). I wonder if they'll interview Kevin Clash, or even talk about his departure (the book barely talked about any recasts, and didn't really talk much...

I think Jeff Bergman was originally going to be the permanent recast for Mel Blanc until he went around saying that he was the next Mel Blanc, to which he got fired or at least hired less (I think I've read that he has done the voices since then, I think he even did Bugs Bunny's voice in one of...

I thought I saw somebody recently say that there seems to be consistency now. They might have just been speculating. Mark Evanier has said on his site that the reason there hasn't been consistency since the days of Mel Blanc is because none of the executives can agree on who can sound the...

Only 123 Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies are in the public domain, which is still a lot, but I don't remember knowing of any stations that ran their own Looney Tunes shows comprised entirely of public domain shorts. Maybe there were some and I just don't know it. But Warner Bros. also separated...

I found some of the Cartoon Gang bumpers, where kids discuss cartoons. And I've seen that there's at least two where they discuss Nickelodeon cartoons. I remember seeing the one about Rugrats on TV, felt it was odd even back then that they'd discuss it on Cartoon Network. And then I found...
