Classic Tex Avery Cartoons That Predicted the Future

If you're over the age of 30 (like me), you probably watched a LOT of the classic Tom and Jerry and Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies cartoons when you came home after school. Ocassionally your local TV station would sprinkle in gems during those time slots that didn't feature the main animal characters, such as the hilarious Tex Avery-directed "Tomorrow" shorts. I haven't seen these in over twenty years, so it was a blast to see them again. Here are two of those cartoons that humorously prognosticated what television and automobiles would be like in the future:

Tex Avery - TV of Tomorrow


Tex Avery - Car of Tomorrow

Thank You!! I have been looking for these old cartoons for ages! Everyone looks at me cluelessly when I ask if they have seen them. Thanks for bringing back so many memories.
