I just finally picked the sixth, and apparently final installment of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection [buy at Amazon], and I decided to watch the fourth disc, the most requested one-shot cartoons.
What's on it?

Lights Fantastic, directed by Friz Freleng, 1942.

Goo Goo Goliath, directed by Friz Freleng, 1954.
Wild Wife, directed by Robert McKimson, 1954.
Much Ado About Nutting, directed by Chuck Jones, 1953.
The Hole Idea, directed by Robert McKimson, 1955.
Now Hear This, directed by Chuck Jones & Maurice Noble, 1962. (Wiki?)
Martian Through Georgia, directed by Chuck Jones, Abe Levitow & Maurice Noble, 1962. (Wiki?)
Page Miss Glory, directed by Tex Avery, 1936.

Bonus shorts:

Punch Trunk, directed by Chuck Jones, 1953.
Sleepy Time Possum, directed by Robert McKimson, 1951.
Wild Wild World, directed by Robert McKimson, 1960.
Thoughts: This is a hell of a way for Warner Bros. to end their "Golden Collection" series of DVDs with the final disc featured semi-obscure cartoons that haven't even been seen in years. I remember a few of these from my youth, but the majority of the fourth disc are ones I've never seen at all.
Fun fact: Norman Normal is billed as a "Warner Bros. Cartoon Special", as opposed to Looney Tunes or Merrie Melodies. I'm looking forward to this one when it finally comes up.
You can't go wrong with Looney Tunes, of course. Recommended.
