The Tex Avery Show was an animated showcase of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer & Warner Bros. cartoon shorts prominently by animator Tex Avery (a.k.a. Fred Avery). The showcase premiered on the Cartoon Network in 1996, and was taken off the air in 2002. It was soon re-broadcast on Boomerang.

Second Series

The primetime telecast of the new Tex Avery Show debuted in January 10, 1999. This series put a large emphasis on showcasing MGM cartoons that have never graced the show. Despite the newly contrived notion, most of these episodes were not shown; although the first telecast aired under this policy were: Northwest Hounded Police, The Hick Chick and The Counterfeit Cat.

Faults

• October 1, 2000 - An MGM cartoon entitled, The Hungry Wolf (not directed by Tex Avery), was aired as opposed to Hound Hunters; the short that was announced to play on the show.
• Virtually all of the cartoons presented on The Tex Avery Show are dubbed versions, excluding Detouring America.
