The first time I remembered HarveyToons while being born in the 90's was through Little Audrey's debut short film Santa's Surprise. The short Christmas themed film follows Audrey and many multicultural children as they sneak inside and hitchhike Santa's sleigh before realizing he's been through a tough night sending presents to all the good boys and girls. By returning the favor, she brightens up a brilliant idea. Audrey and co. clean up the entire house and create a present to honor his good deeds.
While knowing Santa's Surprise was one of the first HarveyToons I knew when Little Audrey became my first encounter, I explored other characters like Casper, Wendy, Herman, Buzzy, Katnip, Little Dot, Little Lotta and even Baby Huey, to name a few. HarveyToons, at the time of being previously handled by Paramount Pictures under both the Noveltoons name and Famous Studios, were heavily considered underrated. But despite the fact it couldn't pull off a monumental rivalry against the likes of Disney and WB, it's safe to assume reliving these characters from the 90's was the best thing ever. Hell, even DreamWorks was in good business with them that they decided to buy Classic Media as a whole and give themselves in to Universal!
Yes, I was in the mood for HarveyToons while I got bored of doing nothing these days. Wonder if I should save up on getting the Best on DVD?
