I remember back when I was eight years old back in 1978,having a dream where I saw a"Little Rascals"short in colour on TV.This would have been impossible back in 1978.But ironically,by the late 1980s,I actually began to"Laurel & Hardy"films and"Three Stooges"films in colour,having been colourised by a special computer colourising process.Though it doesn't look like any"Little Rascals"films have ever recieved the colourising treatment.

There are 6 volumes that were colorized, with 3 shorts on each volume, one of which seems to be harder to find than the others. The volume with Reunion In Rhythm, Divot Diggers, and Mush & Milk is on Amazon right now. It says it is B&W, but the ASIN number matches the number on my colorized edition, which I got from Amazon. Mine said B&W, also, but I could see the cover said "Colorized Collection." Amazon link

The older colorized versions, from the 80s, look absolutely horrible. I have the U.K. Laurel and Hardy DVD set with both color and B/W versions, and some of the ones in color were done in the 80s. El yucko! But using today's technology it looks pretty good... but only if you're a fan of colorization. Those Little Rascals color videos look fantastic!
By the way, I believe that one last color video, that no one was able to find of the Little Rascals, doesn't exist. The set went out of print as soon as it hit the market. Maybe that video was never shipped.

I couldn't believe how good Mush and Milk looked. The colorization isn't perfect, as it seems to miss around a lot of hairlines and lips, but I think they look great overall.

According to the King World site, all of their Rascals episodes are available in both color and B&W. Perhaps colorized episodes will be shown in syndication before long.
