Here's a picture of Maragret...

who the heck is she? I've never heard of her. What studio did she produce at and at what time period?. Winkler was the very first female cartoon producer of 1920s and she distributed(and produced) some of the biggest names in the animation industry including Max Fleischer, Pat Sullivan, Bill Nolan ...

If you watch Boomerang, you'll see they're playing what appears to be a restored version of the Pixie, Dixie, and Mr. Jinks episode Fresh Heir. Comments? I think Boomerang aired that restored short before, I know that the restored prints from the first season of the Huckleberry Hound show have been...

Incidently, do you think this new Magoo collection will include Mr. Magoo Meets Gerald McBoing Boing? Classic Media has those...

And they want the TV Magoos with "Charlie" to have their original soundtracks, even if it means having to search for them. That might be a problem, since Classic Media owns not only the rights to the Magoo character, but also the 1960s tv series.Sony on the other hand, owns the theatrical Magoo car...

I think we have a better chance at seeing the Columbia/Screen Gem cartoons make it to dvd, before the Censored 11 ever does. The whole "Censored 11 on dvd" topic has been played to death, on message boards and I'm terribly sorry for saying this, but it has been a discussion that has become very tire...
