Tonight, we showed the littlest OBD Warner Brothers cartoons for the first time
Hysterical laughter was heard at the many beatings with anvils and frying pans, and multiple TNT explosions. I do believe we will be seeing more of Bugs, Daffy, Tweety, Sylvester, et. al.

..and yes, they are very politically incorrect by today's standards.

1. Uncensored versions?
Have you shown the Roadrunner cartoons yet? As a young kid, they were my favorite! Poor Wiley E. Coyote!

3. No Chuck Jones, yet
Tonight's DVD was mostly Friz Freeling (mostly Bugs and Sylvester/Tweety), and some Robert McKimson.

I don't know if you realize this, but the Coyote/Road Runner series is an allegory about Chuck Jones' struggles with power tools.

5. Howdy Neighbor
Hi,
Sounds fun, not sure how old you are, but too bad you couldn't keep him/her
way too late at night and watch Creature Feature hosted by Dr. Sanguinary with him/her.
If you are a Omaha native and are too young to remember the fine Dr. ask someone over 40!

Peace

8. Howdy
I will ask my neighbors, who are lifelong Omaha dwellers, but I am over 40 and I do remember late night UHF creature feature movies, as well as non creature feature all night movie shows.

Hi,
He was quite the character. I remember when I was a kid and would have sleepovers on Saturday nights and watch the Creature Feature Double Features with the fine Dr. Do a google on the guy, I don't like realplayer so not sure what those videos the top hit has. Quite cool that back in those days every city had some similar guy playing cheesy horror movies on a Saturday night on broadcast television.

Nice to see a fellow Husker on here, I know there are a few!

Peace

12. well golly
Hi,
Wow, didn't mean to hijack this post, I never look at profiles, glad to know there is someone else out there that remembers the fine Dr. and his green skin and white lab coat.

Peace
