Two better than average Tiny Toons episodes..., Mar 29 2002
This tape features the episodes "Two-Tone Town" and "Fields of Honey".
The first episode, "Two-Tone Town"(dir. Ken Boyer), introduces you to the concept that all of the black-and-white Wanrer Bros. characters who DID NOT make the transition from B&W to color are in fact still around... just unemployed. This episode features the top-line animation that is used in "How I Spent My Summer Vacation" and the opening titles of Tiny-Toons, Animaniacs, and Freakazoid. These guys had the better budget and packed more detail into each frame than many other episodes. It also seems that the voice track is in better synch than "B" and "C" team episodes.
The second episode, "Fields of Honey"(dir. Ken Boyer), begins with Babs having some kind of identity problem that quickly turns into a "Field of Dreams" parody/tribute. The episode begins with "A Pup Named Scooby-Doo" type animation... all squash and stretch, then transitions into the more standardized format seen in most episodes. It looks like it was produced by two different animation crews, then edited together. Not as "A-List" as the first episode, but still very fun to watch.
On the whole the tape is a good buy if you were not able to burn tapes archiving the episodes yourself. Good quality copies of this show are not easy to find, so until Time Warner/AOL starts moving these over to DVD format, I'll be picking up every tape I can..
