[AaronBruceLadner]

AAAHHHH YES!, HILARIOUS, ISN'T IT?

[SteveCarras]

Even the TITLE is a homage to Jerry Colonna! [Ahhh..as IF you didn't know!]

[SwampDaddy7]

@SteveCarras

"Surprising, isn't it?"

[yournewplanet]

[MWolfL]

I love Jerry Colonna! "Hilarious, isn't it?" XD

[HomeoftheGoodGuys]

@MWolfL He also did the narrator in Disney's "Make Mine Music" in a segment called "Casey At The Bat" and also the voice of March Hare from "Alice In Wonderland".

[MWolfL]

@HomeoftheGoodGuys

Oh yeah, I remember reading about that about March Hare. Didn't know about "Casey at the Bat" though. I looked it up and it turns out he also did "The Brave Engineer". Did you know Mad Hatter was voiced by Ed Wynn? Also love that guy.

[Morty340]

BLONDIE!!!

[Yugi40]

[firethower99]

You and me, both. So stealthy, clever-thinking and never to be eaten by other fish.

[BeantownJim]

[Lizzard320]

[0307nik]

Στην αρχή είναι κάπως ενδιαφέρον(δεν έχω ξαναδεί cartoon με ένα σκουλήκι για πρωταγωνιστή), συνολικά όμως είναι ένα βαρετό εργάκι.

[LorenzoTheMedici]

classics.....are the best.

[looneytunes9000]

I aggre!

[byw613]

LOL at "Don't be so reluctant, Dragon" an obvious nod to the disney film 'The Reluctant Dragon'

[78sadie]

Love this cartoon! thanks so much,Rev.

[popoff21]

lmao CRAB!

[RivaJane]

That was SO funny! Gotta love the classics

[Scythemantis]

I love the clever views from the crab's eyes, really thoughtful storyboarding!

[peterlnj]

Mel Blanc did all the voices. There is some Porky Pig mixed in there too.

[looneytunes9000]

cool!

[looneytunes9000]

The worm is the voice of daffyduck!

[ACcountryFan]

Mel Blanc did the voices...it's similar to the way he voiced Daffy but with an accent based on Jerry Colonna, complete with handlebar mustache. The name of this cartoon was a pun based on one of Colonna's catch-phrases: "Ahhhh...Greetings, Gate!".

a human caricature of Colonna appears at the end.

There is a book about Colonna, written by his son. The book is called "Greetings, Gate!" and it's from Bear Manor Media...they've issued quite a lot of nostalgia-related items through the years.

[looneytunes9000]

cool then! Thanks!

[stripedhyenuh]

The part with the two eyes at once is so trippy.

[suntzu1985]

have a bite, all white meat!

ha ha ha ha

sure wish i had a worm like this to go fishing with

[suntzu1985]

you just got to absolutely love the worm's accent. especially in the other worm cartoon of his, the wacky worm.

ha ha ha haha

[stacynewyork]

luv'd when he put his wet cap on! LMFAO!!

[DonzaDJN]

Q: do you know of a cartoon involving a Jerry Colonna acting cat.

[21pinch]

The first color Looney Tune [Clampett], called the Hep Cat, has a cat that looks like Jerry when he says "Ahhh, something new has been added"!

[DonzaDJN]

thakyou kindly sir, this was just what I was looking for

[texjones62]

When I was growing up these were the ones thay came on at noon.

[TeamRocket2010]
