Yes, and I don't know who would want to watch 6 WB one-shots at once. I think that is overdoing it. That is why I am not upset about the cancellation of the two Saturday shows.

I didn't even tune in or tape the Acme Hour last night. I knew I wouldn't miss anything. I was enjoying the short subjects over on Turner Classic Movies! It was time (and videotape) well spent! :D

What about "Those Beautiful Dames"? They don't show THAT one too often, do they?

mwooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhyeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...the actually have shown that one on a fairly regular basis. I'm glad they're bringing back these 1930's one shots, but a more even mix needs to happen pretty soon.

The have shown B&W shorts on Acme Hour before like One More Time and Freddy the Freshmen. Since LNB&W is no longer airing, perhaps CN could show those cartoons and for God's sake, CN get some prints of Bosko and Buddy cartoons! :mad:

Early on, when Bugs and daffy began to air new cartoons from other packages, several black and whites came up on B& D too.Technically, it all started with "Porky's Duck Hunt", but that was on a marathon of Daffy Duck shorts. "Calling Dr. Porky", for some reason, was the first one on the regular show, followed by a couple more over time ("Porky's Hare Hunt" being one of them). The last one that aired in black and white on Bugs and Daffy, I think, was "One More Time", in summer of 2000.
