  • I remember watching a lot of these starting when I was a child and up into my twenties and I absolutely adored them. I realized even back then that they weren't as "polished" as Disney's or even the Looney Toons but I didn't give a damn and still don't. Without my realizing it, they were my entry into classical music and surrealism. Some are so over-the-top weird and eerie and frantic and funny that they belong to an unknown class of their own. I really do miss them.

  • you never realize how strange some cartoons are until you get older and look back on them, i actually enjoy cartoons now alot more then i ever did as a child..

  • We would get up "before day" and watch these cartoons...we'd have to sit real close to the T.V. and turn the sound down low so we wouldn't disturb my Dad while he was sleeping...Just imagine all the masters we were exposed to musically between these cartoons and also Loonie Tunes...

  • My brother and I use to watch these cartoons before we went to elementary school...my goodness I must have been in kindergarten or 1st grade! As a musician, I absolutely love the orchestrations and I know every note in every part and could watch and listen all day long! I love these. I never thought I would see these again. We want more!!Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

  • I think that watching these cartoons when my brother and I were about 6 yrs old helped enable us to appreciate music of more extended form and sophisticated orchestration.

  • I was a kid in the early 60's I watched these on TV everyday! Where did you dredge these up? Do you know who composed the stock music? It used to show up everywhere - commercials, travelogues, documentaries, cartoons - everywhere! That music was as familiar as Beethoven's Fifth.

  • These are great - thanks for posting!!

  • is it just me or does sound like the Disney song at 2min30seconds ??

  • I have looked all over for these Farmer Gray cartoons. And Lord and behold I found them on YouTube. To MisterScott99 I thank you with all my heart.

  • ...and thank you so much, MisterScott99, for your efforts in locating these. Obviously, they mean a lot to many of us.
