I'm a great fan of the Warners Brothers cartoons (Bugs is my all-time favorite cartoon character), but you are so wrong when you state that every one of their toons is superior to Rocky and Bullwinkle. Artistically and laughwise yes...but they were never as intelligent or witty as moose and squirrel.

To each his own, of course. But aside from the innate superiority of the wit and sutbleties of Looney Tunes over moose and squirrel, Rocky and Bullwinkle accomplished the dubious feat of making terrible animation hip. I wouldn't trade one "Dough For The Do-Do" or "Duck Amuck" for the entire log of moose and squirrel.

That's what made Rocky and Bullwinkle so great: lousy animation, superior stories and dialogue. You're overestimating Warner Bros amigo. They had great toons, but they also had their share of stinkers even during their golden era. And the W BRos toons greatness only went up to the late fifties. After that their toons were very poor, art and story. Moose and squirrel maintained a consistency of quality in storylines and dialogue until the end.
