[edit]

This is an article “in progress”. Feel free to make any corrections (including any spelling error not done on purpose) and add any major credit names or movie titles overlooked. Release dates of films listed are a mix of what is available at the time and are also subject to correction.

The purpose here is to provide an outline of the Warner Brothers theatrical short films, series by series. Individual titles can be examined in detail with their own articles or on other sites like IMDb.com [1]. Right now, roughly 60% of Warner’s live-action shorts are accounted for over there at least by titles and very basic credits. This is a pretty good percentage considering that less than 20% of Paramount and 20th Century-Fox’s live-action shorts are acknowledged to even exist. In fact, many movie buffs and writers often either forget or simply don’t know that all of the major studios continued releasing ten to twenty minute “short subjects” through the 1960s. Universal officially stopped in 1972, while United Artists kept the Pink Panther going for a few more years.

Fortunately, the animated cartoons enjoyed a second life thanks to television and, at least by the mid-seventies, began to enjoy some of the same critical attention reserved for features of importance. However, the live-action short not produced by Hal Roach, Mack Sennett or featuring Columbia’s Three Stooges is the “lost frontier” of movie research, much like the newsreel.
