. . . as Charlie Dog Morphs from male to female and back again several times, always unsure of "where to go" on Col. Shuffle's premises. Meanwhile, the hulking athletic prodigy Dog of Color Belvedere gets a pass for launching two vicious assaults against an over-powered European ethnic person. Both of these story lines come from coinciding Real Life headlines making World News Sept. 15, 2016. Warner Bros.' always prophetic animation team is mashing together America's "Potty Politics" Scandal with the fact that when it comes to Urban football recruits, it's ALWAYS Open Season on European-American coeds. On the one hand, Brandon Teena will be beaten to death if she tries to use a Boys Room in the Tar Heel State. On the other, her Crimson-Necked Thugs leading the beat-down will drop everything (including Brandon's Phallic Tube Socks) to cheer on the Gridiron Hero ravaging their sister, as long as he has enough decals stuck onto his football helmet. As distasteful as the Looney Tuners may have found it to hang out ALL of North Carolina's Dirty Undies for the whole world to gape at, they soldiered on bravely to Make America Great Again with DOG GONE SOUTH.

Growing up with Looney tunes and other cartoons was awesome. I wish my children was interested in something like this. I guess the children of today can't appreciate something so awesome. My kids look at cartoons like this one and are bored within a few minutes. Hopefully, if I keep showing them the old classics then maybe they will warm up to them and enjoy watching them. I was able to get them to enjoy Foghorn Leghorn and the little chicken hawk videos. "I'm a rooting, tooting, chicken hawk"..."Now I say, Now I say, boy..." My kids did find it interesting to know that one man (Mel Blanc) did all the voices for the cartoons.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpeRhDNgI4U

If I could pick a favorite Charlie Dog cartoon, this would be it. I love the sequence where Colonel Shuffle is playing his banjo on his front porch singing "Boll my weevil and corn my pone, when you're way down south you're never alone!" Charlie runs up and begins playing "Yankee Doodle," causing Yankee hating Colonel Shuffle to hit him with his banjo. Charlie also faces a problem with Shuffle's bulldog Belvedier. One thing I cannot understand is why this cartoon is not shown anymore. There are no black people in it like there were in say "Mississippi Hare" (which mind you were portrayed pretty good-naturedly). It seems rather odd that Turner Broadcasting, stationed in the South would refuse to show a Southern cartoon. I suppose it could be possible that the people working for AOL-Time Warner assumed that just because it had the word "South" in the title, that it would feature stereotypical blacks. I feel this a shame because this is the best Charlie Dog cartoon ever made.

I remember back when Nickelodeon wasn't chock-filled with the min-numbing drivel they have on now and they showed syndicated cartoon shows, preferably Looney Tunes on Nickelodeon (which IMO overdid it on Speedy Gonzales cartoons, old Porky Pig cartoons, those really rare Bosko cartoons, and a bad habit of showing redrawn versions of old cartoons instead of their original print). One of the cartoons just happened to be "Dog Gone South". This is a great piece of work and a refreshing break from being paired up with Porky Pig. Instead, Charlie Dog is shown harassing Colonel Shuffle from "Mississippi Hare".Unfortunately both this and "Mississippi Hare" were last seen on Nick and are now banned because of the Southern stereotyping. Sigh! When will the censorship learn...
