hard to believe that this was one of Ralph Bakshi's earliest directorial efforts. i had almost forgotten about this series until i found it uploaded to Youtube earlier tonight. if there is a series which is just begging to be put onto DVD, it is this one. you can still buy it for now, but only on VHS. i'm hoping that one day the rest of the TerryToons back catalog (Mighty Mouse, Heckle and Jeckle. . . etc.) will find its way to become licensed. while I'm glad that a lot of shows are getting licensed, there's a lot more that has not. (Beanie and Cecil, and Hoppity Hooper are but part of a very long list here.) I'm now a big anime fan, but back in the day when i was watching this, i can only imagine how the Japanese felt when they saw this.since American animation was a big influence on the Japanese. i hope we can show these old shows some love and bring them back to be viewed, re- discovered and loved all over again.
