The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour (1976–1978)

One thing I forgot to mention before...

[21 November 2002]

I have to agree with most of what was said here. This is a lot like the original series, though there are a few minor differences:

1. Appearances by Scooby-Dum 2. Pat Stevens replaces Nicole Jaffe as the voice of Velma 3. A new theme song

I can't complain too much about the music. Most of the chase scene music was the same as the original. This also features classic villains like the Gator Ghoul, the Technicolor phantoms, the Jaguaroo, Ironface, etc. Overall, it's a really good show. Catch it weekday afternoons on Cartoon Network.

If you don't get the Cartoon Network you can still catch this series on the WB.

The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour (1976–1978)

One of the best Scooby series

Kim Possible (2002–2007)

A very good show

[15 October 2002]

I watch this show a lot on weekends. I really enjoy it. A lot of it seems to relate to real life. It's interesting to see a teenager with average every-day situations. Then when she's called upon, she saves the world. I also really like the voice cast. I watched Will Friedele on "Boy Meets World." His character here, Ron, is just about as funny and entertaining as Eric Matthews. Also, Tia and Tamera's brother Tahj is the voice of Wade. I really didn't know who Christy Carlson Romano was before watching this show, but she does a great job as Kim. Also it's interesting watching Kim and Ron battle villians such as Dr. Draken, Duff Killagan, Sheego, Senor Senor, Senor, etc. This is highly recommended. Even if you don't get the Disney channel, you can catch this show Saturday mornings on ABC.

The Flintstones: On the Rocks (2001 TV Movie)

Not too bad

[11 October 2002]

This is a little negative. The way the character's are drawn is sort of strange. Also, why did Kevin Michael Richardson use the early Mel Blanc voice for Barney? Most people are more familiar with his later voice. And about how much Wilma and Fred were fighting. They went a little overboard on that. Fred and Wilma did have a little bit of problems on the show, but nothing involved hitting or anything like that. But there are a lot of things I did like about this. It was funny. Especially the part where Fred mistakes that other guy for Barney. I also liked how Fred risked his life to save Wilma. So overall, I'd say this was good, but I preferred "I Yabba-Dabba-Doo" or "Hollyrock a Bye Baby."

Dennis the Menace (1993)

What's wrong with this movie?

[10/10 · 8 October 2002]

I've noticed a lot of people here made negative comments about this movie, but I don't see why. I really liked it. I always enjoyed reading Dennis the Menace comics and watching the cartoon in the 80s. I really thought the plot was interesting. I also liked how Dennis kept outsmarting that robber. It's really a good family movie with swear words or anything in this movie, (except for when Mr. Wilson says the abbreviation for 'gosh darn.'). I recommend for the people who disliked this movie to watch it again and give it another try.

Sabrina the Teenage Witch (1996–2003)

A terrific show

[6 October 2002]

I like the way, John stood up for this show like that. It's always been one of my favorites. I'll admit it went a little bit downhill this season with the departure of the aunts (Caroline Rhea, Beth Broderick). Still it's a very entertaining family show. Especially, Salem. He's definitely one of the best cats on television. I enjoy watching this on Friday nights and watching the reruns in syndication. I just wish they didn't edit those episodes.

What's New, Scooby-Doo? (2002–2006)

What's New Scooby-Doo? They're coming after you. We're gonna solve that mystery!

[23 September 2002]

What can I say? I have to agree with most everything that was said here. I really like this show, especially putting Scooby-Doo in a more modern setting with new technology (cell phones, a computer in the Mystery Machine, industrial size Scooby-Snacks, etc.) I also really like the music on the show. About the voices, it's good to see Frank Welker and Casey Kasem still voicing Fred and Shaggy. Frank's Scooby voice is good, but I wonder what ever happened to Scott Innes who did Scooby's voice in the direct-to-video movies. And there's Grey DeLisle who reprises her role as Daphne from "The Cyber Chase." As for Marcie Cole's Velma, it's not the best, but a little better then B.J. Ward's. Marcie sort of keeps the nasal tone in her voice. And the show itself still stays true to the original mystery solving formula and catching the bad guy at the end, who would have gotten away with it if it weren't for those meddling kids. It's good to see that after 33 years the famous Great Dane hasn't lost it's touch. Catch this show weekday mornings on Kids WB. It's highly recommended for any Scooby-Doo fan.

The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo (1985–1986)

A good show

[7 September 2002]

I have to agree with what most people have said here. I just started watching this show on Cartoon Network and I'm starting to enjoy it. It's a bit wacky, like "A Pup Named Scooby-Doo," which is what I like about it. I especially liked the part in the episode "Scoobacadabra" where they did a news report with that lady Ms. Cutitout, and there was a debate on whether or not the dragon should be allowed in the episode. I also noticed that it was similar to the original series, with Daphne getting kid-napped and Shaggy and Scooby coming to the rescue. It is too bad Velma and Fred aren't in this though. I don't think this show is quite as good as the originals, but still it's very well written.

Raising Dad (2001–2002)

A great show.

[14 August 2002]

I really like this show. It's too bad it won't be back in this fall. I really liked Saget's role as Danny Tanner on "Full House" and was glad to see him back on "Raising Dad." Also, Kat Dennings and Brie Larson are really talented young actresses. And there's Jerry Alder and Andy Kindler. They're really great too. They really need to bring this show back on television.

Scooby-Doo (2002)

I really liked this movie

[20 June 2002]

I am a big fan of Scooby-Doo and I really enjoyed this movie. The whole cast was great. I especially liked Linda Cardellini's Velma. It really sounded like Nicole Jaffe's original voice. I have to disagree with Jerry, this isn't a kid's movie. People of all ages would enjoy this. I especially liked the part where Scooby was dressed up as an old lady, posing as Shaggy's grandmother, then he started chasing that cat. That was hilarious. I also liked when Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar) was talking to that guy who told her not to go near that castle. "You want me to go to the castle, that's why you told me not to go to the castle, unless you knew that I'd figure that out, so I wouldn't go to that castle." I liked that dialog. As for Scrappy-Doo, I agree that J.P. Manoux did a good job with the voice, but why did they make him a bad guy? I remember he saved Shagg and Scoob from being eaten by a monster on the "Reluctant Werewolf." I understand that a lot of people dislike the character, but I thought that making him evil was a bit strange. And about Scooby, it might not have been Scott Innes who did the voice. I read in a news article that it was some guy named Neil Famming, but whoever it was, he was really good. Overall, this was a good movie. I'd be interested in seeing it again sometime.

One Froggy Evening (1955)

I have to agree! This cartoon is great!

[20 June 2002]

I really enjoyed this cartoon. Interesting that Michigan J. would only sing in front of the man who found him and no one else. His songs were great too, especially "McClosky Fight" and "Michigan Rag." Overall, I really like that character. It is a shame that he wasn't in more cartoons, but it's fortunate that the WB kept him around as the network's mascot:

"Watch the frog."

Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown (and Don't Come Back!!) (1980)

I'd give this movie five stars!

[23 March 2002]

This movie aired today on a local WB affiliate and I really enjoyed it. It's interesting to see Charlie Brown and Linus get involved with spooky mysterious things going on (similar to the Scooby-Doo format). It was nice to learn about the history of Charlie Brown's family. Also, it was an exciting scene when they had to save Linus from a burning building. This is one of Charlie Brown's best films.

This Is a Life? (1955)

WARNING: Contains spoilers

[17 March 2002]

This was a really good cartoon not only because of the flashbacks from "A Hare Grows in Manhattan," "Buccaneer Bunny," and "Hare Do," but in general. I believe this is the first time Bugs, Daffy, Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam and Granny all starred in the same film. I liked the end gag when Bugs talks about everything he did to Yosemite Sam and Elmer Fudd. Then they wrap up a bomb and present it to him as a gift. Bugs gets wise immediately and doesn't accept the gift. "Oh, I'm not desoiving." Of course, Daffy feels it should have been his to begin with and you know what happens next...

KA-BOOM!!!

Definitely a classic!

Rabbit Seasoning (1952)

The best of the trilogy

[17 March 2002]

While other people have said this is the weakest of the Chuck Jones "hunting trilogy," I actually think this one's the best. I always get a kick out of that "Would you like to shoot me now or wait till you get home?" gag. It's funny how no matter what, it's always Daffy that gets shot, not Bugs. Oh, and I liked Daffy's line at the beginning, "Awfully unthporting of me, I know, but hey I gotta have some fun!"

Robin Hood Daffy (1958)

Yoiks and away

[6 March 2002]

This is one of the funniest Daffy Duck cartoons. I especially liked that song he sings at the beginning "To trip, to trip, to trip it up and down." I also like the part where Daffy keeps hitting all those trees, so he chops them down. Then when he tries to swing again, he hits a huge rock. This is highly recommended. Daffy is one of my all time favorite toons.

Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century (1953)

The best Warner Bros. cartoon of all time

[18 February 2002]

I can't believe only two people commented on this so far. This has to be Chuck Jones' best work of all time. This is one cartoon I can watch over and over again. I crack up every time Daffy says his line about the disintegrating pistol.

A Charlie Brown Valentine (2002 TV Short)

The most recent Charlie Brown special

[14 February 2002]

This special premiered tonight and I really enjoyed it. A lot of classic Peanuts strips were put into animation. Though this was probably the first Peanuts special produced after the death of Charles Schulz it still had the same classic animation and humor as the others. They even showed the Little Red Haired Girl dancing with Snoopy. One thing I've noticed though is that a lot of things are drawn the way they were in the comics: (Ex: In most Peanuts specials Lucy's hair is all black, here it has a white outline. The same thing with Snoopy's ears.) Oh, well. Still this was a great holiday special.

The Wonderful World of Disney: Sabrina Goes to Rome (1998) Season 2, Episode 2

The best Sabrina movie

[9 February 2002]

This movie was great. Sabrina travels to Rome and finds a locket belonging to an old ancestor of hers. She has to find a missing piece though. I especially like her line, "This thing hasn't been uncovered for over 500 years and now it's all up to me. And people say I procrastinate." I also liked the part with Salem and Stonehenge (the guinea pig) wrecking havoc at that Italian restaurant. This runs on the WB pretty often. Highly recommended.

A Pup Named Scooby-Doo (1988–1991)

Interesting version of Scooby-Doo

[1 February 2002]

I always liked this show. Sure, it doesn't compare to the original series, but there are a lot of good parts: (Ex: Daphne's butler Jenkins; Fred blaming Red Herry for everything.) I also liked that they made the mysteries so that the audience could play along and find who the culprit was. This is still run on the Cartoon Network. Highly recomended.

A Garfield Christmas Special (1987 TV Short)

I can't believe nobody commented on this.

[22 January 2002]

This is definitely a yearly ritual. It has got to be one of my favorite Christmas specials of all time. I think the best part is that Garfield shows his soft side here. This is shown when Garfield sits in Grandma's lap and she tells him about how she misses her husband. Also, when Garfield gives Odie a hug at the end. There's nothing like a good old fashioned Christmas on the farm.

Knighty Knight Bugs (1958)

The Oscar Winner

[23 December 2001]

I think this cartoon truly did deserve an Oscar it was hilarious. I especially like when Yosemite Sam/The Black Knight shoots himself out of a cannon and crashes into the wall and when he gets flattened by the drawbridge. Classic line: Sam: "Don't sneeze, you stupid dragon, or you'll blow us to the moon." Sure enough, that's what happens. Highly recommended.

It Takes Two (1995)

A different movie with Mary-Kate and Ashley

[10 December 2001]

This time the Olsen twins don't play twins, they play two different girls who just happen to look alike. I have it on tape and I really enjoyed it. It's interesting how Alyssa (Ashley) tries to get her dad fixed up with Amanda's (Mary Kate's) social worker. But the father's children hating fiancee tries to prevent this from happening. Highly recommended.

Clueless (1996–1999)

Give this show a chance

[9 December 2001]

I actually like the sitcom better than the movie. I don't know why so many people weren't that into this. One thing that makes this show great is it's more wholesome than the movie was. (Most episodes of the TV series are rated G, the movie was PG-13) As for the comparison between Alicia Silverstone and Rachel Blanchard, come on the two of them look almost exactly a like. If you stood them next to each other, could you honestly tell the difference? I'll bet the two of them are somehow related. The only problem I have is when they replaced Michael Learner with Doug Sheehan as Mel Horowitz. The two of them have nothing in common whatsoever. Other than that, this is a great show.

Sabrina the Teenage Witch (1996 TV Movie)

I agree. The TV show's much better.

[6 December 2001]

I hate to admit it, but I agree with most of the comments here. Rather than Caroline Rhea and Beth Broderick as the aunts, Nick Bakay as Salem, we have an entirely different cast. The only ones that are the same as they appeared on the show were Melissa Joan Hart and Michelle Beudoin. But there are quite a few notable differences. Sabrina Sawyer instead of Sabrina Spellman, a British Salem instead of the one we all know and love. The movie was okay, but it just doesn't compare to the greatness of the TV show. I recommend "Sabrina Goes to Rome" or "Sabrina Down Under." Those movies are more up-to-date.

Tree Cornered Tweety (1956)

Classic Sylvester and Tweety

[2 December 2001]

I think next to "Hyde and Go Tweet" this is about my favorite Sylvester and Tweety cartoon. I've never seen "Dragnet," but I really liked the concept with Tweety doing a Joe Friday-like narration. I especially like the scene where Sylvester tries to release Tweety from the machine, but instead gets hit with a pie. This one was really great.
