I remember that too!

Not on AMC but on youtube I remember the opening. But the framerate was kinda speedy.

I also remember Sky Princess.


Sigh, Arnold Lebovit removed all of the puppetoons from YouTube.

DATE WITH DUKE and JOHN HENRY AND THE INKY POO are the only Puppetoons I've ever seen with full opening credits (I saw the latter on WNET's MATINEE AT THE BIJOU in the late 1980's). All the Puppetoons I grew up with all had the U.M. & M. cards replacing the original credits. Do you find this valuable?

The Puppetoon Movie DVD has bonus Puppetoons where the Paramount Puppetoons' original opening/closing titles are intact.

But a well-known PD Puppetoon is riddled with splices on that DVD with the Puppetoon Movie, so while they're something you'd expect out of a studio release,
it would be better if Paramount or Lionsgate would release it on DVD.

They'd use THEIR negatives from UCLA and have extra care on the restored versions.

And people might like the quality much better knowing the prints are complete.
