Untalkative Bunny 1-Disc Box Set DVD

Untalkative Bunny is the early-to-mid 2000s Canadian short-form animated series about a small white bunny who lives in a city, navigates everyday urban life, and never speaks a single word, with all the comedy carried by his expressive face, the city around him, and the various small animals he encounters. The show originally aired in MTV's Cartoon Sushi anthology before getting its own series run on Teletoon, Disney Channel, and ABC from 2001 into 2006.

What stands out is the show's complete commitment to the silent-comedy format. The bunny does not talk, his squirrel friend does not talk, and even the human characters are usually framed without dialogue, with the comedy living entirely in physical timing, environmental sound design, and visual jokes. The animation has a clean, flat, vector-style look that lets the city itself read as a character, and the music is light and jazzy in the way urban silent comedy used to be scored.

It belongs to a specific early-2000s Canadian alt-animation moment when Teletoon was funding stranger, more author-driven short-form work, the same family of vector-leaning silent comedies that traveled internationally through ABC weekend blocks and Disney Channel acquisitions. For viewers who first met the Untalkative Bunny on a Cartoon Sushi airing or in a Teletoon afternoon block, this collection captures a show whose specific silent register has aged remarkably well.

Highlights in the set include "Pilot," "Squirrel Of Horror," "Ballet Lesson," "Rain Day," "Squirrel Likes Nuts," "Phone A Friend," and "Goldibunny," episodes that capture both the show's quietest urban moments and its weirder small-scale adventures. This 1-DVD collection gathers 28 episodes from the run, the deepest available home for an Untalkative Bunny that streaming has only intermittently kept available.
