I loved those cartoons too! The more absurd and violent, the better! I still enjoy them, after all these years.

Back in the 60's, when people started worrying about cartoon violence, Hanna-Barbera started putting out cartoons that were supposed to teach something (usually with a NWO theme). I HATED those shows! Give me my anvils and wild takes!

My husband and I go round and round, he insists on watching them on the Boom Channel

Please. Hanna-Barbera lost it after the Magilla Gorilla/Peter Potamus shows' cartoons. (I'm surprised the anti-gun nuts haven't started beating on the tom toms to ban Ricochet Rabbit and his sneaky bullets - you know, the ones that would stop in front of the bad guys and display anything from oversized mallets to lariats to drill bits and saw blades - or Punkin' Puss and Mushmouse.) Though I still think the funniest H-B 'toon of them all was Top Cat.

I'll take my Acme Hours any old time. One Chuck Jones is worth a thousand Hanna-Barberas and as many Rocky and Bullwinkles.
