"A real rip-off!!!!!!

Only one (1) 24 minute TV special and two (2) 6 mninute cartoons!!! That is only 36 minutes on a disc that can hold over 180 minutes!!!

Warner should be ashamed to release such a sparce DVD, and charge as much as they do!

First, a very short TV special that contains only CLIPS of original theatrical cartoons, bridged together by poorly drawn & voiced new animation.

Elmer Fudd is Cupid, since the original voice of Elmer died in the late 1950's WB has never been able to find a suitable replacement, the worst is in this TV special.

CLIPS (and only clips, no complete cartoons) are used from the following cartoons:
Hare Trimed (1953) Bugs Bunny
Grey Hounded Hare (1948) Bugs Bunny
Little Beau Pepe (1952) Pepe Le Pew
Super Snooper (1952) Daffy Duck
Rabbit Romeo (1957) Bugs Bunny
Wild Over You (1953)
Of Rice & Hen (1953) Foghorn Leghorn
Devil May Hare (1953) Bugs & Tasmanian Devil

Two un-restored but complete cartoons are included as a bonus in this SPARCE DVD offering:
Holiday Highlights - from the Golden Age of Looney Tunes Laserdisc Set.
Past Perfumance w/ Pepe Le Pew - also looks like it is mastered from a Laserdisc.

But this is NOT ALL FOLKS! Two restored DVD collections of cartoons are coming out on April 27th 2010! Two discs with 15 restored cartoons on each disc! So unless you want every TV special, hold off for those true Looney Tunes cartoon releases:
LOONEY TUNES SUPER STARS' BUGS BUNNY: HARE EXTRAORDINARE Bugs Bunny: Hare Extraordinaire (Looney Tunes Super Stars)
LOONEY TUNES SUPER STARS' DAFFY DUCK: FRUSTRATED FOWL Daffy Duck: Frustrated Fowl (Looney Tunes Super Stars)"
