I love animation, and have been enthralled by it ever since I can remember. I have always had a very soft spot for the classic Hanna-Barbera cartoons. Though they are not as fast paced as Tom and Jerry and the cartoons produced by Warner Brothers, these cartoons are very fun to watch and are filled with a lot of wholesome charm. They also manage to be funny and creative, even though the pacing is slower than the other cartoons from different studios produced around the time, and include many memorable characters that delight and entertain.

The Huckleberry Hound Show is no exception. It has always been one of my favorite cartoons due to its lovable characters, animation style, music, and endearing simplicity. Yogi Bear and Boo Boo, Pixie & Dixie and Mr. Jinks, and Huckleberry Hound are all wonderful and delightful characters, and each is filled with lots of personality.

Of the three segments, my personal favorite is a tie between Jinks' Mice Device and Sir Huckleberry Hound. They are both very clever and fun. Huckleberry Hound and Mr. Jinks especially delight, they are excellent here and make me laugh and smile from ear to ear. The ending to Sir Huckleberry Hound especially made me laugh, and the villain in the segment was funny as well. I love Mr. Jinks' cunningness and perseverance, and Huckleberry Hound is pleasant, mild-mannered and great as always. Though a step down in quality from the previous two segments, it being not quite as hilarious or innovative, Big Bad Bully still has a lot of good things, and Yogi Bear and Boo Boo are always fun to watch. The voice acting by Don Messick and especially Daws Butler is terrific; they do a stellar job at bringing each character to life by voicing them. They can speak in a wide range and variety of tones, giving a distinct vocal performance for each different character.

The animation is wonderful. The beautiful colors, background art and character designs have always stood out to me. These things make the Hanna-Barbera cartoons very distinct from the cartoons produced by other companies, and I find so much charm in what the show has to offer.

Concluding, it is a wonderful episode that entertains. Hanna-Barbera fans (like me) will absolutely find joy in watching it.

'The Andy Griffith Show' is a family favorite. We love its simplicity, wholesomeness, the good values it frequently displays, and engaging stories. The actors, especially Andy Griffith and Don Knotts, are superb and still remain iconic characters in American television. Have always found joy in watching 'The Andy Griffith Show,' with its unique stories and vast range of colorful characters it has to offer.

'The Arrest of the Fun Girls,' though good and very entertaining, lacks the originality and charm that a lot of the other episodes contain. It seemed like something was missing from the episode; it did not have the heart or soul that is present in most of the series. The Fun Girls are wacky and fun to watch, but they did not offer anything interesting or new to the table. Also, I personally believed that Thelma Lou and Helen Crump could have been more understanding toward Barney and Andy throughout the episode.

Aside from all that, the episode never failed to make me laugh, and it was funny to see how Andy and Barney handled the Fun Girls when they got in their way. The acting and cinematography are wonderful as always, and the episode itself has a lot of mishaps that amuse.

In conclusion, not among the best episodes of 'The Andy Griffith Show' but still entertains.

'The Powerpuff Girls' is among my favorite animated series, and my personal favorite Cartoon Network program. I am very drawn to the unique animation, the engaging stories, and of course the girls themselves, who are strong and brave, and have big personalities to boot.

Both segments, 'Stuck Up, Up, and Away' and 'Schoolhouse Rocked,' are terrifically written, and tackle the issue of bullying that is so commonly exhibited in schools. As someone who was a victim of bullying, I found it refreshing to see the Powerpuff Girls take on bullies and stand up for others and themselves. The antagonists here were malicious and caused harm where they went, but got what they deserved at the end. To me, the stories in 'The Powerpuff Girls' have always been interesting and full of substance, instead of being shallow and unoriginal, a trap that some animated series fall into. I've never found the series predictable either; I have been legitimately surprised by some of the outcomes, which is very impressive.

I have always enjoyed the girls themselves, who truly shine here, especially since each has her own unique personality. Bubbles is sweet and funny, Blossom is smart and levelheaded, and Buttercup is feisty and headstrong. All three of these characters are lovable in their own ways, thus it has never been easy for me to choose a favorite. Though they are justice-seeking and always ready to fight off villains, they are not without humor and heart.

As always, the animation is beautiful, reminiscent of styles from the 1950s (particularly the architecture and landscape scenes). I absolutely love all the colors, character designs, and the artistic layout of the series. The music is catchy as well, and all of the voice acting is terrific.

All in all, a wonderful episode of a fantastic series.
