I’m in my mid 40’s and I watched Tennessee Tuxedo in its original form on a thirteen inch black and white Zenith TV back in the mid 1960’s. I am thrilled just to see Tennessee and his friends in color (I didn’t know they were in color) and in a high quality reproduction on a modern TV.

That said, there’s something very sterile about this approach to packaging these old cartoons. It’s really not like watching those great old shows I remember over again because what you have here is fifteen or so Tennessee segments (many more episodes were produced) cut out of their original context and presented pure, alone, and rather clinically at that. (And with a weird and totally out-of-context promo for a Casper the Ghost show that you have to view every time you put in the DVD.)

There’s a certain fun factor that’s been removed. It’s like an exhibit in a futuristic museum of 1960’s kids TV. You can see, but you can’t really experience the subject matter.

I just wish more of these cartoons would be released like the Bullwinkle and Rocky cartoons have been: seasonal box sets with the original stuff all there.

“Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales” arguably was one of the best series to come out of Total Television (now owned by Classic Media who also owns the rights to Casper, hence the promo), next to “The Underdog Show”. Unfortunately, Classic’s treatment of the TTV material pales in comparison to their treatment of the Jay Ward material (which they also now own). They should offer complete seasons instead of “best of’s” as there were 70 “Tennessee Tuxedo” episodes in total. Also, the theme song has been changed to a ‘demo’ version instead of the actual one sung by Don Adams and Bradley Bolke (Tennessee and Chumley, respectively). The prints are good, and the cartoons are still entertaining, despite my misgivings on the packaging.

FYI, Total Television produced the following series (in no particular order) from 1959-1969:

King Leonardo

The Hunter

Tooter the Turtle

Tennessee Tuxedo

Klondike Kat

Commander McBragg

Underdog

Go-Go Gophers

The Beagles

According to Wikipedia, the rug was pulled from TTV and Gamma Productions (the animation house that also animated much of Jay Ward’s stuff) when General Mills (the show’s sponsor) pulled out in 1969. The last show to be produced was going to be called “The Colossal Show” which was never completed, although there is a comic book out there. The rights reverted back to the creators who sold it to Lorne Michaels (of “Saturday Night Live”) who in turn sold it to Golden Books, and then was acquired by Classic Media, the current owners.
