Baboons Behind Bars
October 27th, 2006
We wrap up Favorite Ape-isode Week with “A Day at the Zoo,” vintage Merrie Melody stuff from 1939. No plot. Just lots of miscellaneous jokes about animals, and when I say ‘miscellaneous’ I mean ‘dumb, dumb, DUMB, so dumb you’ll be vigorously shaking your head AFTER you laugh out loud, and start to choke on that doughnut.’ This is a Tex Avery film, so, not surprisingly, (A) many of the gags challenge even the cartoon laws of physics and (B) everything ends up with someone being eaten alive (in this case, Egghead.)
ReFrederator is all Halloweenish next week. Check us out.
