Back when Cartoon Network wasn't afraid to diversify its programming, the network put together an eclectic block of shorts under the label, Acme Hour, which ran for 8 years (1995-2003). This was where you'd get a generous mix of WB & MGM shorts, where the legends were mostly the creators, such as Hugh Harman, Bob Clampett, Tex Avery, and Rudolf Ising.
The shorts presented here are mostly from the golden era, some of which have previously been showcased here (i.e. "Yankee Doodle Daffy"). Front & backloaded with commercials to keep the copyright enforcement folks happy.
This sampler dates back to 2000.
As the carnival barker put it, "you pays your money, you takes your chances".
