What has been released on video by Warner, Turner, etc.?
Most of Turner’s cartoons have been released in some form. There are a number of VHS series and 4 volumes of “The Golden Age Of Looney Tunes” (laserdisc sets with 70 cartoons each). A Volume 5 is rumored. Volume 4 is rumored to be on moratorium. The cartoons are also shown on TNT, but unfortunately that channel has begun superimposing a very distracting TNT logo on the corner that IMO negates the possibility of building a cartoon library by taping off the TV. For Warners’ cartoons: From 1985-1992, the “24 Karat” VHS series was available, and contained most of what are considered the ‘classic’ WB shorts. This series is now out of print. If you spot one in a store you should consider yourself lucky and buy it right away. WB has released 12 laser discs which include many of the ‘classic’ cartoons as well as new-to-video shorts. WB is also releasing a number of new VHS collections that feature new-to-video shorts. IMO these are the lesser-quality shorts that appear on these new VHS collect
