CLASSIC TV ON DVD:

Dastardly, Muttley and their Flying Machines
Also from Warners - two of my favorite cartoons as a wee kid - The Perils of Penelope Pitstop and Dastardly, Muttley and their Flying Machines. These shows were both spinoffs of the phenomenally successful Wacky Races (1968-1970).
These two 1969 animated series were the top rated cartoons of the time - with the Dastardly, Muttley and their Flying Machines ("STOP THAT PIGEON!") collection you get all 17 episodes on three discs along with commentary on two episodes by Hanna-Barbera's top artists from the day.
This one featured the aerial adventures of villainous World War Two 'ace' Dastardly and his perpetually snickering dog Muttley; brought to life by the vocal talents of Paul Winchell and Don Messick.

The Perils of Penelope Pitstop
Also in release, The Perils of Penelope Pitstop which represents the Wacky Races gang in a Max Sennett Keystone Kops motif.
In this one, Sylvester Sneakly (Paul Lynde) aka "The Hooded Claw" does his best to grab hold of young, innocent race car driver Penelope Pitstop - and her money. If Peter Perfect couldn't save her, the Ant Hill Mob would be close behind. Is it any wonder the kids who grew up on these cartoons are so fond of NASCAR today?
Includes commentary by voice actors and animation veterans on two episodes and all 17 episodes of the production. Loads of retro-fun, makes a great baby sitter.

The Super Friends Volume 2
Warner Home Video and the DC Comics Classic Collection imprint have released a couple of DVD sets that I really enjoyed, you might as well.
First up, The Super Friends Volume 2 - with the classic Super Friends lineup from 1978 featuring Superman, Batman and Robin, Aquaman, Wonder Woman and the Wonder Twins Zan and Jayna. These are the cartoons you grew up with on Saturday morning, pre-'Challenge of' and pre-'Legion of Doom.' They're cheesy, poorly animated with ridiculously silly scripts but that's the charm of this show, it's a flashback to a simpler time that leaves you feeling nostalgic for the way things were.
This 16 episode collection comes complete with extras that include a 'Pajama-Rama SuperFriends Retrospective' with Kevin Smith and friends along with a funny music video celebrating Zan and Jayna - all this at the low price of less than $21.00 if you order now from Amazon! You can't lose!
