(Redirected from Dog Gone Modern)

This is a listing of all the animated shorts released by Warner Bros. under the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies banners between 1930 and 1939, plus the pilot film from 1929 which was used to sell the Looney Tunes series to Leon Schlesinger and Warner Bros. A total of 270 shorts were released during the 1930s.

1929

TitleDirected byAnimated byOriginal release date
Bosko, the Talk-Ink KidHugh Harman & Rudolf IsingFriz Freleng & Rollin HamiltonMay 29, 1929 (1929-05-29)

A cartoonist (portrayed in live-action by Rudolf Ising) draws Bosko, who comes to life. Bosko speaks, sings, dances and plays the piano before the cartoonist sucks him into his ink pen and pours him back into the inkwell. Bosko pops out of the bottle and promises to return.

This is a live-action/animated short film starring a character named Bosko. The film was produced in May 1929 and shown by the two to various distributors. The film was first made viewable to the public on Cartoon Network's television special Toonheads: The Lost Cartoons on March 12, 2000, in an edited form. The full cartoon is present on disc 4 of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 1 as a special feature. The film is in the public domain as it doesn't have a copyright notice.

1930

All cartoons are Looney Tunes starring Bosko and are all directed and produced by Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising, along with Leon Schlesinger as associate producer. All cartoons are also scored by Frank Marsales, who would score all cartoons through 1932. All cartoons from this year and 1931 are in the public domain.

Directing credits would not be shown for the cartoons until Buddy's Day Out in 1933.

Story credits were also implemented for this year, with The Lyin' Mouse being the first cartoon to feature a story credit, however they aren't fully implemented until 1941.
