It’s impossible to think that Hyde And Go Tweet hasn’t ever had a release before (it even opens their press release!). It used to be a mainstay on broadcast and old collections. Glad to see it here finally in HD.

Some other good ones, too, and, even if they aren’t the best, nice to see some more of the 60s 'toons get a bit of a look…they are part of the history after all.

Not sure I get the two "bonus" shorts…no complaints, but I wonder what is it about them that doesn’t mean they’re worthy of making this a 27-cartoon collection…?

Those two have been on DVD before, but cropped to widescreen. Here in Vol. 4, they will have that corrected.

But still no reason why they are “bonuses”. Other toons have had other transfers in DVD with alternate title cards and the like…

I know. It's odd. But that's the reason. I guess it gives them a bullet point to use.

But aren't all the others new to disc?

"Hyde and Go Tweet" is one of my absolute favorite Looney Tunes!! Friz Freleng was so good with that sort of thing.
