A review from IMDb.com:
There is a purpose to this DVD set being necessitated....it
is called a budget. Those who have limited money to
expend on DVD's may want some classic cartoons in
their library, yet not want to spend a ridiculous amount
on a box set.
As a result, WB has released this excellent compilation
of cartoons...a scaled down release of the Golden
Collection. I, for one, am thrilled at this option, as it
gives me the funds to add other cartoons to my
collection, in addition to the Looney Tunes.
The transfers are excellent, and about my only complaint
is that the cartoon listing on the box does not match the
order of the segments on the discs.
However, if you want a sampling of Looney Tunes in
your collection, but are on a budget...this is a great
way to go. - Yarby
