Here's an example

I don't know what any of you think. They're resented by cartoon connoisseurs, but I find something strangely hypnotic about their stripped-downness, their canned music, etc.

back to classics as always, they were thought to be to violent by a generation of parents . Don't thinbk they did me any harm but thats only my opinion

This was my favourite episode: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AzXESShCVE&feature=related

And like the example I posted, that wasn't one of the Chuck Jones classics; rather, it was was one of the notorious "Larriva Eleven" (as in the director Rudy Larriva) from the mid-60s.

Though "The Solid Tin Coyote" is certainly the most audacious of a "bad" lot. (Makes me think of setting up an "EAT, STUPID" command before DATY)

60's cartoon-and a few 70's--were the best. Today cartoons can not be enjoy by adults, the Flintstones, maybe the Jetsons, Scooby were all great.

But cause Fred would yell at his wife, laugh at Barny for being a wimp towards Betty its like wrong for kids to see them today

Oh man, but the kid's movies being put out today? Pixar is da BOMB. I could watch Finding Nemo a dozen times. Just from the pure visual aspect in HD.

Not to discount Small Soldiers, Over the Hedge, Toy Story, Monsters Inc? Oh man Monster's Inc was a fricken RIOT.....

"Meep-meep, my ass," said the coyote when he eventually got that bird.
