This page serves as a tribute to individual Warner
Bros. cartoons from all different eras and featuring all different characters.
These synopsis articles represent my personal favorites, seasonal-themed shorts,
or just cartoons that are influential, interesting, rare, or important. Having
seen nearly every Warner Bros. cartoon and collected the series on tape, for
most cartoons I can provide information that you will not find anywhere else. This will be, for the
time being, an archive of the cartoons featured on the main page, but I
eventually hope to add more cartoons to it that are not featured there. When
archived, the cartoons will be placed in alphabetical order by title.. I have given plot
summaries and/or interesting details, as well as credits and, where available,
some pictures.
I would like to point out a few other pages that have been or will be consulted for certain details:
Dave Mackey's Warner Bros. cartoon filmography
The Unofficial Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies Page
The Unofficial Looney Tunes World
Cartoon Research
I would also like to express my sincere
appreciation for the work of Jerry Beck and Will Friedwald, whose book Looney
Tunes and Merrie Melodies has been an extremely helpful
reference for dates as well as credits to cartoons with reissued "Blue
Ribbon" title cards. Without their research, this page probably would not
be here.
