I would say mine is the "jerk" Daffy. I prefer Woody for zany characters.
Ooh, very tough question. Freakazoid, Cosgrove, Yakko Warner, Flapjack, and Squidward are all close, but it's hard to choose.

Nothing like that actually, my favorite animation characters atm are probably Dib, Sid and Rariy. Out of all of my backlogs, my Western Animation one dwarfs all the others :lol: , I don't really have many characters to choose from. Watched plenty, but few enough to develop opinions on the all characters and get really into the show.

My favorite character lived in a pineapple under the sea from 1999-2004.

Actually... does anyone knows if Nickelodeon is releasing Hey Arnold! on DVD? The DVD-R's from Amazon are too expensive IMHO.

Shout! Factory has been releasing a bunch of classic cartoons over the last couple years, just check their website.

It's too bad Cartoon Network/WB doesn't seem to want to license through them.

I'd love to get all of Dexter's Laboratory and Sheep in the Big City on DVD.

Speaking of WB, wouldn't it be great if they'd actually release all the 'banned' Loony Tunes stuff?

Actually, seasons 3 and 4 of Dexter's Lab can stay lost to the archives of Boomerang for all I care, they were no where near as good as season 1 and 2. What I really want, more than anything else from Cartoon Network, is the rest of Flapjack. And the rest of Billy and Mandy would also rule. But I don't see Warner licensing anything to Shout!. It doesn't seem to be their style, they like publishing their own stuff themselves.

Season 3 and 4 of Dexter's Lab does suck, but Dexter's Lab still hasn't even seen a complete season 2 release. I think there's an austrailian DVD that has half of it, but considering how most of my favorite episodes were from season 2 I'm pretty bummed out.

Warner preferring to publish stuff themselves wouldn't be a problem if they actually would publish stuff.
