The Pink Panther
-Season 1
Overview
Season 1 establishes the series’ core formula: two Pink Panther cartoons paired with an Inspector short, connected by lighthearted interstitials. Across its 33 episodes, the season defines the Panther’s smooth, silent comedy and the Inspector’s slapstick chaos, creating a playful contrast. This first season set the visual style, musical tone, and comedic rhythm that would turn the show into a long‑lasting classic.
