DVD releases

In 2006, Classic Media released 52 of the 78 episodes produced on a four disc DVD set entitled Harvey Toons - The Complete Collection. The set were both criticized and applauded by many animation fans and the original show consultant Jerry Beck as Classic Media didn't consult with him on making this DVDs set. He stated that he wouldn't have included the show format of those cartoons or just made sure that the cartoons were not packed in similar manner as on the show. Because that would make room for the ToonTakes to be in there full format and the cartoons that were not used on the original show would have been released on this set as well. He and many others applauded Classic Media though for very good picture quality of the shorts included and some for its low price tag for such high bunch of cartoon released at once. .[2][3]

The following should be helpful in finding which of the 8 disc sides will contain as there are no information given inside the DVD keep case. the specific season and episode you may wish to access.

Note: Seasons 5 and 6 are not found in the 4 double-sided disc collection in spite of the DVD set's HarveyToons: The Complete Collection title. But many felt that the set was more meant to show case the original Famous Studio product and thus the omission of season 5 and 6 might be more understandable.
