Good idea lost in the noise

A different way of telling a story

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Growing up with Looney tunes and other cartoons was awesome. I wish my children was interested in something like this. I guess the children of today can't appreciate something so awesome. My kids look at cartoons like this one and are bored within a few minutes. Hopefully, if I keep showing them the old classics then maybe they will warm up to them and enjoy watching them. I was able to get them to enjoy Foghorn Leghorn and the little chicken hawk videos. "I'm a rooting, tooting, chicken hawk"..."Now I say, Now I say, boy..." My kids did find it interesting to know that one man (Mel Blanc) did all the voices for the cartoons.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpeRhDNgI4U

It one of the best cartoons - Loony tunes ever made. There are others that come to mind. Rabbit Seasoning for instance.....starring Daffy Duck and Buggs Bunny. But this cartoon is in that league...And it has that line, "Oh, Belvedere...Come here boy!...Wonderful slapstick, gags..and I love that American Southern Accent make this into a classic.I would dearly love to be able to get this on DVD.The Colonel and his faithful Hound - Belvedere is brilliant here... If you ever get the chance please watch it.Carl Brown - Ipswich, England

One of the best one off shorts from Looney Tunes. Yes, it features Charlie the Dog once again trying to find a home, but Belvedere and the Colonel are one of a kind characters who aren't too fond of Yankees or Yankee Pot Roast.Aah, magnolias! Charlie puts these two through the ringer trying to replace Belvedere as the Colonel's pet. One of the rarely seen Looney Tunes cartoons during this new age of political correctness. Why are great new cartoons like The Simpsons, South Park, and Family Guy seen as smart and irreverent, but older cartoons like this seen as demeaning or degrading? I can only hope that this great cartoon will eventually hit a DVD collection before some other format comes along and they have to start all over again.

If I could pick a favorite Charlie Dog cartoon, this would be it. I love the sequence where Colonel Shuffle is playing his banjo on his front porch singing "Boll my weevil and corn my pone, when you're way down south you're never alone!" Charlie runs up and begins playing "Yankee Doodle," causing Yankee hating Colonel Shuffle to hit him with his banjo. Charlie also faces a problem with Shuffle's bulldog Belvedier. One thing I cannot understand is why this cartoon is not shown anymore. There are no black people in it like there were in say "Mississippi Hare" (which mind you were portrayed pretty good-naturedly). It seems rather odd that Turner Broadcasting, stationed in the South would refuse to show a Southern cartoon. I suppose it could be possible that the people working for AOL-Time Warner assumed that just because it had the word "South" in the title, that it would feature stereotypical blacks. I feel this a shame because this is the best Charlie Dog cartoon ever made.
