- This-or-That Tuesday: Summer Re-run!:
- 1. Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck?
- Daffy Duck. Oh, yes, Bugs was day-in and day-out more consistent, but when Daffy was at his best he was sublime. Duck Dodgers; Robin Hood; and alone on a white background. And the sheer audacity of removing Bugs' drag disguise in front of Elmer!
- 2. Tom or Jerry?
- Tom. It wasn't always his fault.
- 3. Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck?
- Mickey Mouse. Donald is a one-note character at best, only funny when he fails. The Mouse is the Man.
- 4. Rocky & Bullwinkle or Boris & Natasha?
- Rocky & Bullwinkle. Although it is Boris and Natasha that give the show a spine, it is Rocky and Bullwinkle that give it heart.
- 5. Road Runner or Wile E. Coyote?
- Wile E. Coyote. Unlike the Road Runner, there's not a shred of cruelty or viciousness in him. He just wants to eat.
- 6. Sylvester or Tweety?
- Sylvester. His best moments are without Tweety (a handful of 'toons in which he's Porky's silent, terrified pet). After seven minutes of Tweety's annoying voice I'm ready to shoot him myself.
- 7. Popeye or Bluto?
- Popeye.
- 8. South Park or The Simpsons?
- The Simpsons.
- 9. Jetsons or Flintstones?
- Jetsons.
- 10. And finally, the eternal question asked by all good Scooby-Doo fans: Velma or Daphne?
- Oh, Velma!
