* DigitalDestruction: When the shorts were restored for TV airings, many of them went through the DVNR process, which unintentionally scrubbed away a lot of the detail and linework from many shorts, such as "Gallopin' Gals and "Tom Turkey and His Harmonica Humdingers".

* AnimationBump: When Creator/HarmanAndIsing were brought back in 1939 to give the MGM Cartoon Studio the kick in the pants it needed, they had used the time in their absense to considerably refine their animation skills to the point of full-blown Disney quality, resulting in TheTwelvePrinciplesOfAnimation being in full effect in these shorts. It helped that Harman And Ising had in fact worked on one outsourced ''WesternAnimation/SillySymphonies'' short, "Water Babies", during that time.

* DenserAndWackier: "The Lonesome Stranger", a parody of western cartoons, is noticeably more gag-oriented and wild in it's animation than most of these other shorts. Apparently, Hugh Harman made it as part of a bet with producer Fred Quimby to prove he could do comedy in the vein of Creator/TexAvery and Creator/BobClampett.
