It was probably Sunday mornings for us on state-run television called Doordarshan (Far Sight). The modern cartoons telecast now are not worth seeing.Prashant C.

I agree, together with Hanna-Barbera and Warner Brothers, their early animated shorts and films were often far better than Disney.Prashant C.

I'm thinking of compiling these early cartoons into a small collection and save them on a disk. Problem is there are too many of them. It'd make a nice unusual Xmas gift.Prashant C.
