Merrie Merrie Quite The Contrary; Merry Little Batman Writer Morgan Evans and The Animation Scare of 2023

Greetings Folks!

In this week's episode, I'm joined by the co-writer of Merrie Little Batman, Morgan Evans to discuss his works as well as the little scare us Looney Tunes fans experienced last week surrounding the removal of the classic Merrie Melodies catalog from Max!

In a quick turn of events, we had news that the remaining short from the classic Looney Tunes series, as well as the 2011-2014 Series, the Looney Tunes Show was to be removed from the streaming service Max, only to be ratified in it's press release with word that the titles were added by mistake.

Physical Media is here to stay and this week is a great time to stock up! The Collector's Choice Vol. 2 drops on Blu-ray featuring some never before seen restored cartoons from Friz Freleng, Chuck Jones and Art Davis! Thanks to the Warner Archive for putting that together.

Morgan Evans also wrote for the Tunes in the WB100 celebration episode of Teen Titans Go! so go to chat about that, but unfortunately it's currently not available to stream anywhere. Hopefully soon it will be made public again, as it did air on Cartoon Network on Oct. 14th.

Merry Little Batman:

The latest project saved from termination due to the Discovery/WB merger is here thanks to Amazon Prime picking it up for distribution! The Holiday Crime Caper is available on Dec. 8th and it looks absolutley delightful!

With Batman's mission to clean up Gotham, finally complete he can now focus on the next one, being a Dad to Damien Wayne, his son. When Damien loses his Father's gift, it's up to him to protect the mansion from burglars in this festive comedy!
