Recently found the OOP complete series set for George of the Jungle, and I decided to pick it up. I have little experience with the series, but I do like Jay Ward's works, and it was a fairly seminal part of Cartoon Network in the 90's, so it must be worth a look.

Harley Quinn (S2)
The Croods: A New Age

The Croods: New Age is a blast. Great animation, tons of genuinely funny moments, and to my surprise and delight, an absolutely killer soundtrack! A well earned B+

Harley Quinn S2 is a lot better and S1. A lot of funny moments in this one too. But the pace slows down by season's end. Also, I found all the minor characters in this one (Kingshark, Clayface and Sy Borgman) to be hugely annoying. It gets a B-.

I also got Lupin III the First. Not bad. The animation is great and there are some tremendous action sequences. However, the story drags in a few places. And the "easy listening" music feels totally inappropriate for an action thriller. A solid B.

This was a pretty good cartoon series by Jay Ward (Rocky & Bullwinkle). I saw it on CN a long time ago and I still have my complete series set in storage which I can't wait to see again.

Also, check out the other two segments:

Super Chicken: It had some pretty comical moments. His lion sidekick named Fred was pretty funny.

Tom Slick: Very hilarious & amusing. He was a goofy race-car driver with the same voice as Dudley Do-Right with a girlfriend who had the same voice as Nell.
