Review of Bonkers

Bonkers (1993–1994)
Its just crazy corny fun; what a cartoon is supposed to be
8 August 2002
Bonkers is just old fashion silliness. It pokes fun at cartoons and old detective movies and movie industry decision making all in the style of Abott and Costello with corny jokes and puns. It makes fun of Disney cartoons in particular and has pulled in "cameos" by such classics as Ludwig Von Drake, Donald Duck, the Mad Hatter and has one entire episode about kidnapping the greatest toon mouse of all. The puns are never ending with characters names such as Lucky's wife, Dyl Piquel, or Bonkers' second partner, Miranda Wright. The toon slapstick is also nonstop such as the time they catch a toon impostor with "the banana test" because no true toon can resist slipping on a banana. This show is NOT educational any more than Marx Brothers; it is just plain corny humor which is IMHO what a cartoon is supposed to be.
