Product Description

The screen's most comically inept detective wreaks havoc on the boulevards of Paris as he, with the help of his sidekick Deux Deux, wages a single-minded (and narrow-sighted) battle for justice. Initially presented as theatrical attractions, the cartoons gained a much greater audience when they were broadcast as part of the Pink Panther animated television series. This special edition collects all 34 episodes of The Inspector, on two discs.

Inspector Cartoons

Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2023

Verified Purchase

My uncle, Jim Ryan, wrote 14 episodes. Sargeant Deux Deux was a character we grew up imitating in our family. I hadn't seen these in years. Really fun cartoons, even if my uncle wasn't one of the writers!

I watched these as a kid in the 80s after school. The audio and video are super clean transfers to Bluray. Two discs. I also purchased The Ant and the Ardvark too.

DELIGHTFUL DEPATIE-FRELENG CARTOONS

Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2016

Verified Purchase

Utterly charming, witty and stylish, the 2-disc collection of all 34 "The Inspector" cartoons which were originally screened in cinemas in the mid to late 1960s are wonderfully inventive and thoroughly entertaining.
Each cartoon runs at the snappy pace of just over six minutes (in most cases you may wish they ran a wee bit longer) and are beautifully animated with very funny stories and characters. An added bonus are the clever story titles which deliciously mash French and English e.g. "Reaux, Reaux Your Boat", "Cirrhosis of the Louvre", "Unsafe and Seine", "Napoleon, Blown-Aparte", "Les Miserbots", "Sacre Bleu Cross", "Tour de Farce", "Crow de Guerre", "Carte Blanched", "Bomb Voyage", "Le Pig-Al Patrol".
Superb voice characterizations by Pat Harrington Jr. and Paul Frees, stylish background artwork and title layout and excellent music scores (mainly by Walter Greene) with that infectious, unforgettable Henry Mancini theme, all make this Pink Panther inspired series an absolute delight.
The Inspector, his Spanish speaking gendarme Deux Deux and the blustery commissioner have not aged at all in this timeless collection.
This release also contains two interesting and informative documentaries on the DePatie-Freleng studio and audio commentaries on some of the films.
Personally, I am not a huge animation buff but feel very chuffed to have added "The Inspector" to my collection.

Don't Say Si, Say Oui!

I recently purchased several Mirisch-DePatie-Freleng cartoon sets, and have to say that Kino Lorber has done a great job presenting beautiful restorations of these timeless classics. Although my favorite of the bunch is "The Ant and the Aardvark", I was also a devoted fan of "The Inspector" when it ran as part of the Pink Panther animated series. Originally made in 1965 to 1969, this set features all 34 episodes of "The Inspector" on two discs. The crazy late sixties color palettes look great and all the prints look better than I imagined they ever could. A few episodes suffer from subpar sound, but I have no doubt that it's as good as the source material would allow. A couple of the episodes were a tad slow or derivative, but overall I was thrilled to see these again; my particular favorites are "Cirrhosis of the Louvre", "Le Escape Goat", "Bear De Guerre", and "La Feet's Defeat".

Pat Harrington, Jr. brought "The Inspector" to life with his perfect voice acting, and the animators and directors did the rest to make a series that can be enjoyed by all ages, and to add to the enjoyment this set has some extras including interesting critical commentaries on a few of the episodes, and two documentaries, both of which are well worth watching.

Gotta love The Inspector.

I've been watching The Inspector since I was a kid. I get a kick out of The Inspector & Sgt. Deaux-Deaux. I also like the Commissioner, The Inspector's hot-tempered superior. The Inspector was part of the Pink Panther cartoon series, to which i'm also a fan of. Thanks again Amazon!

It's the best cartoon series I've ever seen!

Reviewed in Canada on September 5, 2017

Verified Purchase

This dvd set features the entire series, unlike the previous "Best of" set. It's incredible, and other than the close-2nd "Best of Dudley Do-Right" dvd set, it's by far the best cartoon series I've ever seen! This isn't a cartoon where kids love it but adults will be bored to tears, it's hilarious no matter what age you are. Lots of slapstick comedy, and the episodes with The Inspector's dim-witted sidekick Deux Deux are the best. I HIGHLY recommend this dvd set!!!

I already own the Pink Panther series on DVD but it does not include The Inspector episodes, which I actually purchased, so I could view them. So glad this came out, and snapped it up quickly!
