This collection includes 22 Pink Panther cartoon from 1968 to 1969 - By the end of the 1960s, The Pink Panther had achieved the status of iconic cartoon character, and the cosmopolitan cat left his big-city habitat and began crossing into more universal comedy settings: a military base (G.I. Pink), caveman times (Prehistoric Pink and Extinct Pink) and Olde England (Pink Valiant and Pinkcome Tax). But the panther never completely changed his stripes. In color-splashed urban landscapes (a hallmark of the DePatie-Freleng studios), the sublime feline continued to engage in duels of wits—with the establishment “Little Man” as well as the occasional inanimate object (a cuckoo clock in In The Pink of the Night).

"Volume 2" moves Pink Panther into the late 1960s, where the character is faced with a growing audience. Producers attempt to find a way to make the icon cool for kiddies, with the aptly named "Psychedelic Pink" whisking the curious cat into a book store adventure that messes with time and space while still making room for slapstick. It's easily the most interesting short of the bunch, but the rest provide consistent entertainment, watching Pink Panther and his survival instincts do battle with animals and Little Man, the hapless victim/antagonist who pops up intermittently to give the cat a more defined opponent. Risk isn't big here, but there are a few creative detours that are most welcome.

Finding immediate fame in the opening title sequence of Blake Edwards’ 1964 classic comedy The Pink Panther, the feline embodiment of the Swinging Sixties cool quickly become the star of his own animated shorts produced by the DePatie-Frelend Studio. Unlike the loud and manic characters of other animation studios, the Pink Panther was lithe and easygoing, and moved to the rhythm of jazzy theme music of the great Henry Mancini (Breakfast at Tiffany’s). Usually thwarting the plans of a variety of uptight “little men”, the hep cat’s fresh approach to cartoon comedy earned an Academy Award for his first solo effort: The Pink Phink (Best Animated Short Film, 1964) and remains the era’s most iconic animation sensation. This collection of 20 cartoons are all mastered in HD and feature the original audio without laugh-tracks which were added to the television versions of the short films.
