Through the 1980s and 1990s, Chuck was painting cartoon and parody art, sold through animation galleries by his daughter's comoany, Linda Jones Enterprises. Chuck was the creative consultant and charecter designer for two Reggedy Ann animated specials and the first Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas special "A Chipmunk Christmas." He was also crating new cartoons for the Internet based on his new charecter, Thomas Timberwolf. He made a cameo appearance ub tge 1984 film Gremlins and directed the Bugs Bunny/ Daffy Duck animated sequences that bookend Gremlins 2: The New Batch(1990).

Fiom historian Leonard Maltin has praised Jones' work at Warner Bros. MGM and Chuck Jones Productions. He also noted that the "fwud" that there may have been between Jones and colleague Bob Clampett was mainly because they were so different from each other. Chuck Jones' styles were more controlled and calmed downs, while Bob Clampett's were crazy, wacky and insane.

I really like how Chuck created his own animation. I think its very clever, he use different styles.
