Why We Rated This on for Ages 6 and Up

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    Not an issue.

  • Violence & scariness:

    Plenty of slapstick cartoon violence. Characters are shot at, slammed into walls, trampled on, etc. The finale of "The Scarlet Pumpernickel" has Daffy shooting himself in the head in order to sell his script, although he rises to inform us, "It's getting so you have to kill yourself to sell a story around here."

  • Sexy stuff:

    In a (fortunately) subtle gag, Yosemite Sam is thrown in jail, and his cellmate seems a little too friendly in "Carrotblanca."

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    This is part of Warner Brother's animation juggernaut.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    "Dripalong Daffy" prominently features a western bar in which characters are gambling, smoking, and drinking. Daffy and Porky trade shots with the villain, but the alcohol consumption has a negative (albeit funny) effect on our heroes. "Hare Do" features a crowd of moviegoers smoking up a storm during intermission.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Carrotblanca

Parents need to know that while kids should enjoy the shorts, much of the parody will be lost on them. Some parents may find aspects of these shorts questionable, such as the excessive drinking and cartoonish violence. Older kids have more appreciation for the bountiful wit showcased in these cartoons. Teen viewers may get the most out of this collection. Cinema buffs in particular will appreciate the numerous parodies of venerable Hollywood genres.
