Cartoon Showcase:Thom Cat

Here is yet another non-classic cartoon that's too good not to share! This offering from Nickelodeon's Random! Cartoons series stars the charming, polite, intellectual, well-dressed(right down to his patent-leather Italian loafers) Thom Cat(who's also something of an inventor). When Thom learns that his young owner Melissa's tea party was wrecked by a little bully named Rusty, he takes matters into his own paws. But, will he be any match for Rusty? Please enjoy! (Love this cartoon's art style, BTW!)

Fun Fact:This show, like Boneheads(Well, maybe not exactly like Boneheads! :-D), had only two voice actors providing all the voices.

Cartoon Showcase:Before They Were Stars:Chalkzone

Here, as per my previous post, is the pilot episode of Chalkzone from Nickelodeon's Oh Yeah! Cartoons series(which, coincidentally, was also the first segment of the first episode of Oh Yeah! Cartoons). In this episode, a young Rudy Tabootie gets in trouble with his serious-minded teacher for doodling in class, while also sparring with the class bully. Things look bleak for Rudy until he discovers a box of magical White Lightnin' chalk; said chalk allows him access to Chalkzone, a place where previously erased chalk drawings(including Rudy's own character Snap, who he befriends) come to life. The sound quality, regrettably, goes a little wonky in places, but the quality of this video is very good otherwise. Please enjoy!
