First, I’ve had a few people point out that they’re surprised by the absence of one particular theme song here for Toon Tune June. My response to this surprise is that I decided a while ago that my very last Flashback Friday will be dedicated to all things pertaining to this particular cartoon…as it is teh awesome and deserves to be the final word in my flashback endeavors. So, when that particular cartoon appears here, you will know that the end has arrived. Until then…<\/p>\n

I decided to end Toon Tune June with a theme song from the great pantheon of Disney cartoon themes…and also with a nod to the very first Toon Tune June entry. See, Disney seriously rocked the after-school syndicated cartoon world for many years. And why not? They’re Disney. They’ve got the money and the resources. So there was a long line of cartoons that played on constant rotation on all the syndicated networks: Tale Spin, Ducktales, Darkwing Duck, Gargoyles<\/em> (oh, there’s a post all to itself…oh, the Trekness of Gargoyles<\/em>!!)…but of all the theme songs and all the cartoons, I loved this one the best: Chip and Dale’s Rescue Rangers.<\/em> <\/p>\n

And, before anyone points this out, yes, I know it’s actually called Chip ‘N Dale’s Rescue Rangers.<\/em> I don’t know why, but that “‘N” just really irritates the English major in me. It even irritated me when this show was first airing in syndication. Leave me to my proclivities, denizens. <\/p>\n

Oh, and I did say that I was going to give a nod back to the first cartoon theme I posted, Tiny Toon Adventures.<\/a><\/em> So, here it is: The voices of both the titular Chip and Gadget Hackwrench, the team’s pilot, mechanic, and Jane-Of-All-Trades, were done by none other than Tress MacNeille,<\/a> she of Babs Bunny fame (and still HI-larious as Crazy Cat Lady on The Simpsons<\/em>). <\/p>\n

Tress MacNeille is teh awesome. So is the theme to this cartoon. <\/p>\n
