The Heathcliff and Dingbat Show



Best Cartoon Circa B.G.&F. (Before Garfield & Friends)!
Before "Garfield & Friends", there was "The Heathcliff & Dingbat Show", the only close-to-decent cartoon from Ruby-Spears Productions (besides Plastic Man in the pre-"Baby Plas" era.). Mel Blanc's voicing of the former still stands the test of time, and Dingbat and the Creeps seem to resemble the 3 Stooges in monster form in their never-ending quest for a job. My only 2 complaints: they excluded the original credits, both opening and closing, and it would've been nice to see a bonus featurette on Heathcliff's creator, the late great George Gately. Other than that, this collection is great!
