This is probably the first time the female cat was named "Penelope" in the series, though a few later shorts would call her "Fabrette" or "Fifi" or something like that, her real name would always be Penelope from this point on.
And wouldn't Pepe know that smoking would probably make him smell even WORSE? :P
@Brennan75 They are, but this is actually Chuck Jones making fun of fellow writer Tedd Pierce (who, like Pepe, liked to hit on women and was constantly rejected) and himself (Jones didn't consider himself a winner with women when he was younger).
-pops cork off bottle,cork flies away, walks over to ice bucket,puts bottle in ice pulls cork from cloth ,sticks cork back on bottle-. now how did he get the cork back that quick to the cloth? more so why has he spare corks just lying around?
I miss these cartoons!!... idk why people keep saying they're not for kids?? Kids back then didnt have such a perverted mind as kids do now back then our interest was playing and just having fun, now a days kids know and are interested in drugs, sex, violence and that crap.. and to top it off they're really rude! Years passed by and its a whole different generation... :)
"...idk why people keep saying they're not for kids??" -- Cuz they weren't. The people who made the cartoons even said that they made them for themselves (and then released them to a general audience [read: an audience consisting of kids and adults of all ages]). Plus, back then, the writers and animators like to play "What are we gonna get past the Hays Office today?" just to please the adults in the audience while the kids remain blissfully unaware of the joke until they grow older.
People keep commenting that these are kid's cartoons, but they were never meant that way. Recent generations associate the classic WB or MGM cartoons with being on kids' channels or on Sat morning, but these were high-budget productions to be shown in theaters before the feature. Therefore, they were intended to entertain kids AND adults on many levels, and managed to do so without being crude. In fact, they were more expensive to make per frame than movies, which is eventually what killed them.
Do you have any idea how many people have said this? A lot, and it *is* true, but there really was a show called "the Continental" that aired in the early days of TV. Because it was so short-lived (it lasted from 1950 to 1952; this cartoon came out in 1954), a lot of people don't remember it -- except for the comedy writers who parody the show and its character, TV historians, fans of 50s TV, and Christopher Walken himself, who actually remembered the show and suggested that SNL do the sketch.
@aby4111 It's not. For too long (ever since the Looney Tunes were put into syndication on TV), they have been marketed as kiddie fare (especially on American TV; I don't know how the rest of the world markets them) and, as a result, a lot of cartoons have either been edited to pieces or banned. This cartoon had the entire beginning cut when it aired on ABC (yet the obvious bondage references at the end were untouched. Go freakin' figure).
@Cuteblondchick72 oh, okay... it seems like pepe's biggest flaw was his smell... otherwise he seemed somewhat suave, although he does come across a little bit strong on occasion ;D I just figured that pepe would get a little more action if he wore some cologne or something... or maybe went under the knife if you know what i mean...
@mgg121288able Yes, but in the early days of TV (the 1950s), there was an actual show called "The Continental" that was similar in format to the beginning of this cartoon (and the recurring SNL sketch). The show itself was short-lived (it got canceled in 1952), but the parodies of it (such as the beginning of this cartoon and the SNL sketch) have lived on forever.
u know i always loved this cartoon but JEEEZZZZUUUSSS!!! this skunk at the end is just plain wronngg!! lmaooooooooo none the less fucking love loony tunes!!!
@HollowPointzz You know we are all sorry for whatever your father has done to you and for every time your uncle tried to touch you, but don't take it out here on a simple funny cartoon whom we all enjoyed when we were kids... Pepe le Pew did not do that to you sweetheart! And calling him a class A rapist is simply a proof that you are nothing but an extremist feminist; hence, I can say you are a class A cultural terrorist and a class A fundamentalist! Seriously... GET A LIFE!!!!
@RoxanneJ81 Actually, there *was* a TV show called "The Continental" starring Rezno Cesana that aired in the early 1950s (between 1950 and 1952). It didn't last long, but its parodies did (i.e. this and the SNL sketch), which led to people remembering the parody more than the actual show (on TVTropes, this is either The Weird Al Effect or Seinfeld is Unfunny [when something revolutionary becomes a joke due to derivative works])
"We can spend the rest of our lives making love!" Jesus Christ, how did I miss comments like those when I was little?! This guy really was after the pussy!
@GHZoner "Making love" used to mean a rather diffferent thing back in the 1950's. There's an infamous line in C.S. Lewis's Narnia books where a girl "makes love" to all the giants in a castle, for example.
Ofcourse it might already have been a double entrende when this cartoon was made.
@DELPHIIII -- You're right, though I remember in the 1990s, Nickelodeon aired the Pepe cartoons. Network TV didn't (save for "Odor of the Day" -- which was an Arthur Davis cartoon that didn't have Pepe as we know him and maybe an edited version of "For Scentimental Reasons"), but Nickelodeon had all the ones made after 1949 (like this one, Scentimental Romeo, right up to the last one in 1962). And Cartoon Network aired all of them too, but not now.
@aveyowyns I know! But for most kids, myself included, this kind of humor went over our heads and it wouldn't really make any sense until you got older.
¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ PEPE LE PEW WILL HAVE HIS OWN MOVIE, AND HE WILL BE DUBBED BY MIKE MYERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
