Anyone have any idea what Boomerang aired on their Daffy marathon? (Assuming I am correct in thinking it was this weekend as well.)

I don't get Boomerang so I haven't the foggiest idea.

I didn't notice anything special.... I have been occasionally flipping channels between this and June Bugs. First, if you didn't know, Boomerang only shows 8 hours of original programming per day (then repeat the block throughout the day).

Each of the two 8 hour blocks (Saturday's and Sunday's) each had 4 hours of the "Best of Daffy" (the Daffy shorts CN airs all the time) and the remaining four hours showcasing some of Daffy's cartoons in chronological order. All the prints used were the same ones shown on CN. Nothing from WWII (no "Plane Daffy", "Daffy - The Commando", etc) and nothing with Speedy Gonzales (all three of the DePatie-Freleng Daffy cartoons WITHOUT Speedy *were* shown, though, along with "The Yolk's On You" and "Daffy Flies North").

Some of the June Bugs premieres aired today during the Daffy marathon - "The Million Hare", "The Abominable Snow Rabbit", and "Person to Bunny".
