More Info:

The DePatie/Freleng Collection (1965-1972) (5 Discs) Five-disc set of DePatie-Freleng classic cartoons includes 34 shorts of "The Inspector," 17 shorts of "The Ant and the Aardvark," 17 shorts of "Roland and Rattfink," and 17 shorts of "Tijuana Toads." 9 1/3 hrs. Total. Standard; Soundtrack: English; audio commentary on selected episodes; featurettes. The Inspector: The screen's most comically inept detective wreaks havoc on the boulevards of Paris as he, with the help of his sidekick Deux Deux, wages a single-minded (and narrow-sighted) battle for justice. (34 Cartoons/2 Discs) Roland and Rattfink: The timeless melodramatic tradition of duelling polar opposites became the foundation of many an animated conflict, but never were Good and Evil so stylistically rendered as in the R&R cartoons. (17 Cartoons) The Ant and the Aardvark: A&A revived the timeless cartoon conflict of predator and prey, and modernized it with an irreverent sense of humor and a splashy color palette emblematic of the late 1960s and early 70s. (17 Cartoons) Tijuana Toads: Like an amphibian Laurel & Hardy, TT revives the thin guy/fat guy formula for comedy, and endows it with a distinctive south-of-the-border flavor. Toads Pancho and El Toro engage in madcap mischief while seeking to advance themselves within the biological food chain.
