- The
Pink Panther Classic Cartoon Collection - One of the unforeseen
(and hugely profitable) benefits of the first Pink Panther
movie was the popularity of the cartoon cat from that film's
classic credits sequence. Added on a hunch by director Blake
Edwards and concocted by the DePatie-Freleng animation team,
the slinky pink feline immediately spawned his own series
of cartoons, first for theatrical release and later for television.
The saga is gathered in The Pink Panther Classic Cartoon Collection,
five discs of 124 cartoons, plus extras. This would
have to be considered the ultimate such collection, and more
than the average fan could handle in a few sittings (or a
few dozen). But they're all here.The Pink Panther is - paws
down - the world's grooviest cartoon star. In 1964, this pink-inked
feline slinked onto the opening credits of Blake Edwards'
caper film by the same name and threatened to steal the entire
show. Sleek, sophisticated and witty, the animation, produced
by Friz Freleng and David H. DePatie, was a stylish departure
from its contemporaries…and an instant hit. A subsequent
short film, The Pink Phink, would go on to spawn a celebrated
series of six-minute cartoons featuring the sly cat. Now,
for the first time, 124 cartoons produced by Freleng and DePatie
between 1964 and 1980 are collected here in a swingin' 5-disc
set. With over 14 hours of "pink comedy," you can't
help but lick your whiskers!
