about Bosko

[Cartman]

I don't understand this. Bosko cartoons have been released on video/DVD, but are not shown on CN. I understand that Bosko is thought to be a racist character, which is why he isn't shown on CN, but then why does WB release his shorts on video/DVD?

Of course, you know I'm just curious about this, I'm not actually in favor of banning Bosko. :cool:

That's mostly because of the Columbia House deal. They may have been exclusive releases for that series only. Bosko may be considered racist, but WB has a reputation for the toons they do put on tape uncut. As for the DVD's, those are PD prints from Bosko Video, and not WB.
