Iain: See, what I have found is that as I have been getting older I have come to appreciate the older Hanna Barbera stuff a lot more, cartoons like Flinstones etc used to bore me a bit when I was younger and I thought they dragged out.
I bought Flinstones Season 1 & 2 and Topcat complete set on DVD earlier this year and must admit I have really enjoyed watching them. The old school animation and writing is awesome.
My next purchase I have decided is going to be Count Duckula complete box set, that will be some point in the new year.
Count Duckula and Danger Mouse are pretty good, those were both Thames productions, IIRC, there are a few well animated shows after the '70s, but not very many. Most of it's cheap crap.
