Beyond the initial Fox and Crows almost none of them are funny. Some of them are cute, like “Madeline” and “Willie the Kid”, “The Oompahs”, and a few others. …And, I’ll give “The Unicorn in the Garden” some props too! <br /><br />“The Tell-Tale Heart” is MAGNIFICENT! But most, “Giddyap” in particular, just leave me scratching my head. <br /><br />I say this not yet having watched Disc Three – but, the possibility of another “Tell-Tale Heart” aside, I’m not expecting many surprises. <br /><br />I’m just not the audience for these, I suppose. If this is art, give me Bugs Bunny… or Huckleberry Hound… or Freakazoid! …Or even SpongeBob! <br /><br />Have at me, critics! Should I perish in a sea of flaming comments, at least I’ll go true to my convictions! :-) <br />Joe Torciviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00421096229407174474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3738012638904762739.post-45877285730761349092012-09-10T15:34:02.013-07:002012-09-10T15:34:02.013-07:00Jeez, Yowp, did you like ANY of the cartoons on th...Jeez, Yowp, did you like ANY of the cartoons on the set?

They should have tried making more cartoons with funny humans (and you can also argue that the idea promoted by UPA's backers that no other studio was using humans as main characters in their shorts gets thrown out the window simply by looking at the 40-year history of the Fleischer-Famous Paramount cartoons)J Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15175515543694122729noreply@blogger.com
