Info with one of the heads with future updates like they can play pepe le pew and they are trying to get the 80s ninja turtles.

magoo owners didn't even know they owned mr magoo! They are remastering more hanna barbera cartoons for the network.

Mr T is one of the biggest watched shows on the 80s block! (lol) Only live action thats not a cartoon doca will be banana splits like stuff or puppet stuff like thunderbirds.

Terrytoons rights are a mess, but they are trying. disney is not going to be easy but they are trying to get disney stuff also!

They have the Jeanie cartoon rights! WB restoring yogi bear show and huck hound with bumpers, and classic intros from metv toons! Block of black and white cartoons coming! Some really old. Top cat remastered. Morgilla gorilla restored as well as loopy deloop, impossibles, muttly flying machines, wally Gater show, lippy the lion and touché turtle are getting remastered with new prints and the classic intros and bumpers! Superfriends and classic superman shorts confirmed also. Benny and Cecil are coming!

They can't play the 60s dick tracy and some magoo tv shorts while others can play with warning.

I'm so there for Jeannie..! It's a childhood favorite of mine.

also very much looking forward to the restored Huckleberry Hound & Yogi Bear shows.

I'd love to see more Ruby-Spears and Marvel Productions SatAM cartoons from the early-1980s. I was especially fond of Pandamonium! and Meatballs & Spaghetti (though, I realize, some may wonder why).

Each of us have irrational nostalgic loves!

Remastering shows for broadcast may also mean further disc releases for those of us that enjoy partaking. Especially for those of us unable to get Metv Toons.

Holiday specials will indeed air--

Cave kids christmas episode is now a tv special. It can be added with the hb specials.

Just for fun a clip from youtube with frank welker and--the fonz?



As for metv toons--

Apparently, Classic Media has requested that MeTV Toons "pause airing" of Rocky & Bullwinkle & Friends.

MeTV Toons is airing episodes of The Flintstones in R&B&F's place, at the moment.

Interesting…could be DreamWorks/Universal is looking to do more with their DreamWorks Classics characters at last. Such a huge library of properties there that they probably don't even realise what they have!
