The Pink Panther Cartoon Collection (Full Screen)

I guess I'm alone on this. But If MG$M wants me to buy the excellent Pink Panther I want 50 cartoons for $25+tax at list price so I pay $20 at Best Buy. I want good mastering and the original versions of the cartoons. If MG$M wants to include Ant, Inspector, Toad cartoons then I want 100 cartoons for $50 or about $40 at Best Buy. I can get about 20 hours of 24 for is it $40 or $50. But I get 55 minutes of The Pink Panther for $15. That means $300 for 20 hours or 6 times as much. I hope everybody reading this post boycotts any MG$M product that is a rip-off. If we are being made to go to DVD instead of the superior Movie Palace culture with one cartoon in front of the a great print of a film or films and the other stuff and not Bad Boys 10 on a TV screen that is misized then don't rip me off MG$M. Too bad because there are almost no good cartoon collections available. And
children's programs like this Jackie Chan Adventures or whatever bad Anime they peddle now is just sad. Underdog with Tennese was cool. The Go-Go Gophers and Klondike kick ass. Scooby Doo Kids just sucks. Dexter's Laboratory is when it's not real weekday afternoon generic often real cool. But they don't give you the cartoons like they use too. Before MTV overworked Mike Judge and he had other people do it for him, Beavis was real cool. & speaking of cartoons- where is a good Paul Terry collection of Heckle, Mighty, Sydney, Hector, Mighty, Deputy and others? Where is a good Walter Lanz or Harvey with Baby Huey and others? Or a best of AAP with Poe, Mr. Magoo, Thurber, Shorty & Swifty and others. English people would probably buy a Magic Round About. There should be a normal length/price version of Weird Animation from Rhino. That means stuff at the quality of volume 1- 50 cartoons for $20 at Best Buy and mastered. Not scratchy prints and $40 for about 16 cartoons. Except people wouldn't know the cartoons so they might think they would suck. But that clay worm that eats everything is real cool. It would probably freak you out if you did acid. Then there is other stuff including modern/foreign. But it seems unlikely that the companies will ever get cartoons right so why bother? Its a shame about The Pink Panther- that's one of the coolest ones. I seem to remember a fight for a bone, a quarter and that real cool pet rock. Clutch Cargo where are you?

I bought this for myself--er--my son for Christmas. Everyone loves it, from my 3 year old to the grandparents...there is something funny for everyone! I am 32 years old and loved these cartoons as a kid. Too bad you can't find the "oldies but goodies" on regular cable tv these days! The absence of characthers' talking enables kids to actually use their brains in imagining what would be said if only the characters COULD talk! I think that is what makes these cartoons so timeless. The background music is great....I had NO PROBLEM WHATSOEVER with the quality of the DVD. After all, these were originally made in the late 1960's to early 1970's! I'm just glad to have ANY copy of these cartoons! You won't be sorry if you purchase this! Hope you enjoy it as much as my family does!

As much as I liked the 70s TV show, including Ant & Aardvark, you guys are being too critical, and in the wrong direction.

While you guys are getting all nostalgic about watching The Pink Panther Show on Saturday mornings, I'm getting nostalgic about the Pink Panther cartoons shown in theatres before, and between films during double-features in the 60s. Remember double-features?

Anyway, that's what this DVD is, the cartoons from the theatres, not The Pink Panther Show, which was the Saturday morning cartoon that you all fondly remember.

3.0 out of 5 stars Poor amount of cartoons
I rated this DVD 3 stars just for the fact of ONLY 7 carttons. This was absolutely ridiculous if not totally a rip-off. And what about the Ant and The Aardvark? Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars good but should've had ant, ardvark and gadget.
This is pretty good. Good color for the original technology. There should have been more for the money. Would have been better with about 20-30 cartoons instead of 7 or 8. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Too few...
Great DVD but I was expecting more than 55 minutes or so. Hopefully next time they do better and put more on a DVD.
