that is because they are rarely seen in syndication. I believe they were never on the Bugs Bunny Show or The Road Runner Show or any other ones in the 60's or 70's. In the early 90's Looney Tunes on Nickelodeon did show many of the Buddy and Bosko cartoons.

Damn, that's interesting. I was also going to say Tazmanian Devil and Porky Pig too, but I felt like Marvin was really the only one I could do without. The others are low on my list of favorites, but I wouldn't say I dislike Taz. I actually kind of like him, but he's not a favorite. Porky doesn't do much for me at all but I can still watch those cartoons. But if Marvin Martian is on, I change the channel. |

Just wanted to point out that the Tazmanian Devil was only in 6 shorts and I believe Marvin the Martian was in less than 8.

I thought that this thread topic's title was in reference to the EPISODES, not the CHARACTERS.
As for episodes (I'll hang for this!) "What's Opera Doc" [1957]-NOT FUNNY, MCGEE! UPA is where this should of been. Or Disney. "Ali Baba Bunny" [1957] Makes you pine for Betty and Veronica of the Archies (the witty COMCI BOOK ones--Ronnie's Bob Hope-like egotism was in cgharacter-Hope-Crosby, Bugs-Daffy, Josie and the Pussycats-Alexandra Cabot, Betty-Veronica...ah...the MEMORIES...Charlie Brown-Lucy), they made SENSE as atagonists. Bugs & Daffy to me had no chemistry except for "Foghorn Leghorn/Taz" creator Bob McKimson shorts. "Tweet Dreams" [1959]--basically all it is, is a collection of vintage Tweety shorts, strung together like Warner Bros. and (in his sunday night show) Walt Disney did, paving the way for the debated (MUCH!) 1980s "Bugs Bunny/Road Runner/Daffy Duck/Speedie Gonzales" flicks.The Three Stooges used a similair budget approach at the time, until Joe Besser stepped in for Shemp after the latter's November 23, 1955 untimely death. Gumby did the same thing but in REVERSE--22 12 mintue toons split up. More on that later.] "Hare Breadth Hurry" [1963] Not to have Chuck Jones dominate any bad thsi or that list of mine, for all the debate he's recived here, but Bugs is just a bit TOO malicious ["oops..I'm goin' to have to cut you off"]..he's sitting in for the ROADRUNNER ["sprained a giblet"]. Any of the Daffy/Speedy shorts, well maybe the ones by the original Alvin and the CHimpunk-ers "Format Films" headed by veteran animator (they did a Longe Ranger cartoon forTV at the time) Herbert Klynne and by the reoriganizaed Wrner Bros.(Seven Arts) studio, whcih TV cartoon sub-dept. head Bill L.Hendricks headed. The later Bill L.Hendricks "Hanna-Barbera looking & sounding" ones had Cool Cat & Merlin the Magic Mouse and other new characters despised by many, but I enjoy them, though I was one of those who';d ask..who's that TIGER! Who's that MOUSE! ![]() Hippety Hopper the baby kangaroo pitted with Syvlester, himself in that role (and, though BARELY mind you, as victorious as Hippety), in the few Chester/Spike dog flicks, can be redundant but some of his films are still good. I don't know if to include early Porky (too fat and stuttering) or Bosko (too racial) is fair to that era... Buddy can be a drag to watch..(early 30s character..) Later Daffy (escept "Robert McKimson" ones,see above THat pesky Mynah Bird.. Believe it or not though I actually DO like Papa Bear to an textent and also am somewhat slow and heavy set like Junior if you want to talk about underrated characters, and a few cartoons not liked by others the "Music by John Seely" (also Jack Shaindlin and Philip Green]. Those with stock music--"Weasel While You Work","Bird in a Bonnet","Gopher Broke","Prehysterical Hare',"Hook, Line & Stinker","Hip Hip, Hurry"--all dating from 1958--get atttackded understasbly by fans seriously for not being by regular music directors Milt Franjklyn or Carl Stalling (these were recroded during a 1957 music strike) |

I never considered Marvin the Martian a Looney Toon since he was shown that much or was not on the stage on the Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Show |
