Sheep!?

Favourite Droopy? That’s easy. It’s Drag-a-Long Droopy (released in 1954). The “moo-moo-baa-baa” and “hey, taxi” scenes are as funny as anything Tex Avery did.

There are some great expressions, too. There’s the underplayed little burro who casually moseys along. And there’s the cattle baron, who has a dishevelled take when he’s told (by a worried cow) that sheep are on the way. This is one of the in-betweens.



Ray Patterson was added to the Avery unit for this cartoon, which had Grant Simmons, Walt Clinton and Mike Lah animating, along with Bob Bentley.
