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 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 DVD set. He stated on his cartoonbrew.com site that the 42 toontakes were originally made to let an episodes of the show fit the half-hour mark of the standard TV show and the 16 shorts that were not included at all were drooped for un-PC nature of those shorts and for some oversight in producing of the show the bases of this DVDs set. He said he would have liked them to include all those un-PC cartoons and the toontakes in full form. He and many other applauded though Classic Media though for very good picture quality of the shorts included. .[2][3]
