Bought this DVD just recently and all the cartoons in it I remembered well compleate with the eathenic (sp?) content put back in as they were made back in the day. Now that I have seen this it is time we got a vote together for a DVD of Spike (or Butch) shorts! THOSE were funny as all outdoors. The one I want most on that set is Rock a Bye Bear where the bear HATES NOISE!! Plus one with a cat who throws the voice and another where he is guarding a garden...great stuff! Love MGM cartoons for their site gags and Tex Avery was tops in the field!!

As an enthusiastic but not quite collector-level fan of the classic MGM cartoons, I am more than happy with this Droopy DVD set, though some of the critiques from more hardcore collectors might be legit if you're in that crowd. For one, the picture quality could be better, but historians are reporting that the original cels have been lost so we are stuck with inferior reproductions. Also, the DVD extras aren't so hot but this should not detract from the greatness of the originals. In any case, it's a joy to have these old classics on DVD for on-demand hilarity, with Droopy nearly rising to the level of prime Tom & Jerry for drop-dead guffaws and outstanding animation. Note that this set collects all of the theatrical Droopy shorts, not later ones that were made for TV. Even so, these 24 Droopy shorts feature fairly repetitive sight gags and storylines, and there is even a completely repeated episode created for two different cinematic formats ("Wags to Riches" and "Millionaire Droopy"). But we also have to remember the demands of the medium in the 40s and 50s, in which incredibly energetic animated shorts were created at a breakneck pace to support the movie market.
The theatrical shorts starring Droopy happen to be among the best showcases for the cracked genius of Tex Avery, as Droopy was his most enduring character. Surrounding the moribund hound with high-octane slapstick and far more energetic side characters was a perfect way for Avery to exercise his groundbreaking exercises in comedic timing and visual innovation. Like some other collectors around here, I would also like to see an omnibus DVD collection of the works of Tex Avery, because he spread his talents around several cartoon studios and many of his characters did not enter the public consciousness. In the meantime, fans of both Avery and Droopy will drolly mutter "You Know What? I'm Happy" upon receiving this DVD set. [~doomsdayer520~]

Perfect-just like you remember from years gone by when cartoons were funny but had an underline meaning.
Today's kids should be treated to these treasures.

I bought this dvd set cause I remember having seen Droopy cartoons when I was a kid thirtysome years ago. So last weekend I put them into the DVD player, sat in frot of the TV with my son and I could not believe my eyes! These cartoons are so passe! They don't make sense, characters get their heads and stomachs blown away after which they trodded on and away happily. I swear I feared my son could get funny and harmful ideas from these cartoons.. I hated them, thought they were dangerous to have kids watch and I removed them from our cartoon collection immediately..

Droopy The Complete Theatrical Collection is Great. Finally we are able to see these cartoons anytime we won't. My Favorite Droopy Cartoon is Dumb Hounded. If you are a fan of Droopy you should buy this.
