List of The Pink Panther cartoons
Wikimedia list article

This is a list of the original 124 Pink Panther animated shorts produced between December 18, 1964, and February 1, 1980, by DePatie–Freleng Enterprises for release by United Artists. The initial 92 shorts were primarily released theatrically. These entries subsequently appeared on Saturday mornings via The Pink Panther Show under the same umbrella title starting in 1969 on NBC. All 32 made-for-television entries were distributed to theaters after initially airing on The Pink Panther Show under the title The All New Pink Panther Show in 1978 on ABC, three of which were reissues of former shorts with new music cues. Every short in the series has the word pink in the title.
The Pink Panther's long-time foil, known as the Little Man, appeared in many entries except where noted.

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “List of The Pink Panther cartoons” as wikimedia list article. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as wikimedia list article. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q1613559. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1964, 1980, 1969 and 1978.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
