Toonheads: The Wartime Cartoons
Vince

Set your VCR's for a very special episode of TOONHEADS scheduled to air on Memorial Day weekend. Cartoon Network presents TOONHEADS: THE WARTIME CARTOONS, a special one hour presentation compiled by Jerry Beck and George Klein, celebrating the role of Hollywood animation during World War Two.

The special contains four complete uncut cartoons - including SCRAP HAPPY DAFFY, BLITZ WOLF and HERR MEETS HARE, along with excerpts from dozens of others including WAR DOGS, SCRAP THE JAPS, BUGS BUNNY NIPS THE NIPS, THE DUCKTATORS, TOKIO JOKIO, YOU'RE A SAP MR. JAP and many many more.

Wartime references are explained and are put into proper historical context. Please watch this show - good ratings for these Toonheads Specials encourage Cartoon Network that there is an audience for more of these - as well as enthusiasm to see UNCUT cartoons. DON'T MISS IT, tell your friends!- It airs Sunday May 27th at 10:00pm - and there is no guarantee it will ever be rerun!
