My Childhood in one show

There are only two cartoon series that meant the world to me in my childhood and this was one of them. I love this series so much. the writing was always ingenious, the characters were lovable, and it always left you with a good feeling and made you smile. But what sets this show apart from other also very good shows? its charm. its self aware charm. almost as if it knew it was a TV show and played to the audience. The idea of this show was already tried with Roger rabbit, but Bonkers pulled it off much better with a hilarious personality and lovability. the episodes where he's paired with piquel are hysterical and (IMO) better than the later ones with Miranda. they just had a sort of chemistry that was brilliant. if i had to nitpick, the only thing i DIDN'T like about this show was fall apart rabbit and the theme song. but other than that, this show is amazing, even to this day. It's incrediby sad that this series is not on DVD yet and i will be sure to buy it the moment it does. The cartoons of today need to take lessons from these amazing shows and go back to hand drawings. This show embodies my childhood and has near perfection status, with 10 wacky toons, out of 10.
