Greetings:

If you are like me --- and your only solace from mind-numbingly stupid childhood TV was that lovable collection of characters --- the LOONEY TUNES --- then today is cause for much celebration in the cartoon-loving world.

Today saw the release of the 4-DVD LOONEY TUNES BOX SET:

Looney Tunes Golden Collection (411 mins.)

56 shorts in their original unedited formats. The whole cast is here --- and there are plenty of extras and bonus features --- to show you how deep Bugs Bunny's rabbit hole goes (sorry, Larry and Andy!) --- there are the 56 shorts, combined with behind the scenes peeks at the whole darn-tootin' shebang.

And yes --- this collection DOES INCLUDE such classics as:

Duck Rogers in the 24-1/2 Century, Rabbit of Seville, Duck Amuck, Putty Tat Trouble, Porky Chops, Yankee Doodle Daffy . . .

If you spent your childhood laughing at the 'toons who truly put the Disney crowd to shame --- then run to your DVD store and get this.

And, those of you with children --- here is some children's TV worth watching!!

KDB RATING: Five Anvils, Fallen From The Sky (out of five!!)
