I’m listening to TuneIn…
… I’m reading Tune In…
… and I’m watching Toon In.
Toon In with Me deserves attention and praise for multiple reasons. The show appeals to kids and adult animation fans alike. Although most of the cartoons are from Warner, Fleischer, and MGM, they dig fairly deep into those catalogs. Obviously offensive titles are avoided, so you won’t see “Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips”.
New viewers will quickly learn the names Tex Avery, Bob Clampett, and Chuck Jones. Helpful historical context is provided for cartoons that go as far back as the 1930’s. Each episode of Toon In has a theme, and there are plenty of hokey comedy bits between the cartoons. All that’s missing is a studio audience.
