Columbia Pictures
	Columbia Pictures was formed in 1919, and is still with us today with feature films from Sony Pictures Imageworks. Along the way, you will also be able to explore cartoons from UPA and Screen Gems, as well as theatrical series like A Color Rhapsody and Krazy Kat.

Walt Disney Studios
	No other studio is more closely related to animation than Disney Studios, because the studio was virtually built completely on it's animated output. From the early Mickey Mouse shorts to pioneering animated feature films, the studio has always had ink and paint in it's veins. We also include episode guides for all the Disney television animation, too.

Filmation Associates
	Second only to Hanna-Barbera, Filmation Associates was a monster in television animation in the 70's and 80's in the US. Though the animation was often limited, the breadth of the shows ranged from science fiction and space to the old west and Gilligan's Island.

20th Century Fox
	Historically, the Fox animated films began with Winsor McCay's Gertie the Dinosaur in 1914. Today, Fox is known more for it's animated television shows like The Simpsons and Family Guy.

Hanna-Barbera Studios
	Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera created an industry when MGM closed and the two directors teamed up to make limited animation television shows. From The Jetsons to the Flintstone.... to Powerpouff Girls, Bill and Joe's influence is still felt today at Cartoon Network.

MGM
	One of the classic studios of old Hollywood, MGM also played a pretty big role in animation in the 1940's and 1950's. Great directors like Fred "Tex" Avery, Hanna/Barbera and even the great Chuck Jones all called this studio home at one time or another.

Other Studios
	There are a lot of other producers of animation than the big 5 or 6 studios that have their own categories. Those thousands of studios are all listed here. Many of the other studios are well known- Dreamworks or Nickelodeon for instance... aqd others have only released a single film.

Paramount Pictures
	Another of the classic Hollywood studios, Paramount was the home of the Fleischer brothers. Their Fleischer (and later Famous) Studios produced many of the greats of the silver screen, including Popeye and Betty Boop. All of those animated films lists and more are here.

Universal Studios
	Universal Studios is the oldest movie studio in continuous production in the United Sttates, and the fourth oldest in the world. While their legacy is long, they also look to the future with Illumination Entertainment and the Despicable Me series. Go Minions!

Warner Bros.
	Where would we be without the famous- and beloved- Warner Bros. characters? If for no other reason than Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies animated series, this is a studio you can lose hours looking through. The studio has reinvented itself with modern animated television shows, and those TV Series Episode Guides are here to explore, too.
