Bucky and Pepito - The Coyote Catcher

[vawlkee]

I think you guys are being too tough on this series. I watched it as a kid and knew it wasn't the best but I've seen far worse!

BTW Cal Coyote was voiced by the late and VERY overused V/O actor Dal Mc Kennon.

"The Ed Wood of animation"? I think not.

Wanna' see cheesy? Try Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse - same studio. It was even created by Bob "Batman" Kane.

[tsartodd]

"bucky and pepito, such a funny funny pair ..."

indeed ... from Sam Singer, the Ed Wood of Animation

XD

[SteveCarras]

those cues on Coyote Catcher would be used in 50s-60s Sam Singer episodes, and late 60s Gumby, but strangely nowhere else, but other Singer-used music cues are the familiar canned music cues we know from virtually EVERY program.

[SteveCarras]

What's interesting is Sam Singer was among the biggest users of the stock music from John Seely, Jack Shaindlin and others that crosspollinated into the famous Capitol Library, and that many of the Sam Singer show episodes used many of the most recognizable Yogi cuts, but above can be heard cues usually heard by me in late 1960s Gumby episodes..

[MrStrangeify]

Wow, this looks worse than Yakkity Yak (remember that show on Nickelodeon). I don't even seen anything funny in this cartoon.

[inmoderate]

Too bad the kid didn't throw the axe

[spottySTC]

those sounds at 1:07 ...

[RocketTCoyote]

This uses a lot of it's own animation over and over. Typical of low-budget productions.

According to Time Life books, coyotes will steal an occassional tomato or melon. Bucky actually bears a slight resemblance to Yippee Coyote the fursuit character--also in youtube videos.

[MaDrEaMeR17]

Yeah, I don't know why I clicked on any links in a So Bad It's Horrible page.

Curiosity, mate. We all want to know that: "Well, at least there's something worse out there." It helps us build faith within ourselves.

[seaweedprincess]

This enrages me.

As an animation student. As somebody who knows what a coyote looks like. As someone who understands the basic concepts of what makes something funny. As a human being.

I hate this forever.

[moneymandate]

The So Bad It's Horrible page strikes again

[NewEraOutlaw]

BORING.

[1455C4]

Coyotes don't eat tomatoes and a watermelon...

[1455C4]

Coyotes don't eat tomatoes.......

[Poever]

Does John K. know about this?

[rlpniew]

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[bigg3469]

The Coyote sound like Dal McKennon did his voice.

[Acid2Rider]

Anyone else got linked here by TV Tropes? I don't have any other explanation to watch this.

[KarmikCykle]

Yeah, I don't know why I clicked on any links in a So Bad It's Horrible page.

[LordLegless]

Yes. The So Bad It's Horrible page does not lie.

[wsbtam]

Not only do coyotes not eat tomatoes, they do NOT have tails like a donkey's!

[Invidente7]

Coyotes DO NOT eat tomatoes,

That's all I have to say about this

[reelman64]

?? its not that bad

i've seen much worse

[wikiporno]

RULE 34 NOW!

[Araqnydd]

probably exists somewhere

[SteveCarras]

Of all the companies to use the stock music used her,e only Clokey Productions for Goo/Prickle/.Prof.Kapp./Nopey generaiton episodes used this; the other used the more familiar Seely-Loose Yogi music used eveyrwhere..

[Lemon77UG]

I think the Gene Deitch Tom & Jerry's are worse, especially since they're still shown on TV.

[Tareltonlives]

This is like Tom and Jerry, only inane, nonsensical, cheaply produced and containing racial stereotypes.

[BettyBoop4ever25]

LOL,is it just me or does the boy have eyes on his sombrero?

[pm0501]

I remember this cartoon being shown in WGN-TV 9 in Chicago. I believe it was a Garfield Goose staple. They usually showed 2 cartoons per day including venues such Clutch Cargo and Crusader Rabbit.

[mrjinx87]

The voices never sync up with the lip movement. Never. Sometimes the voices start before the mouths move and vice versa. Did anyone ever notice this?

[Invisib0]

Wow, some production values. Check out on 2:17... somehow a duplicate of the pitchfork's blade can be seen on the ground while Pepito is holding it in the air. Unless that was done deliberately to attain the illusion of speed as Pepito tosses it, but if so it was pulled off poorly.

[Invisib0]

That theme song is the best thing ever.

[hamsterama]

Whoa, was this bad! I've certainly seen worse, but this was pretty bad. There was nothing funny, and nothing to laugh at. It was overall very boring to watch. No wonder this is considered by some to be the worst cartoon series ever produced.

[furbearingbrick]

This must be YouTube Pooped, NOW.

[crackman64]

I thought this was a youtube poop XD

[furbearingbrick]

Someone needs to make a Youtube Poop of this, BADLY.

[AnaesthesiaStroganov]

I just did, actually.

[Webins]

I remember living over-seas as a child, and they'd show this cartoon farily late in the day, towrads sunrise when no other cartoons were shown.

Yet, despite my hunger for any cartoons, I couldn't watch it. It was just too God-aweful.

[BackgroundBailey]

So this is limited animation...it sure is bad...

[KeeganB]

I've seen worse cartoons.

[KeeganB]

I've seen worse, though this is pretty crappy.

[ktrain115]

What the hey? This is the worst cartoon ever made. A boy cowboy, a lazy mexican, and a tomato eating coyote? Indeed!

[furbearingbrick]

A lazy Mexican with EYEHOLES IN HIS HAT.

[spinnypanda34]

Why would a Coyote eat Tomatoes??

[SteveCarras]

Much of this music was used in the 1967 Gumby!

[normloman]

2:35 I love the way he moves when he says "Dont ever come back".

[furbearingbrick]

LOL seizure!

[dvoyy]

Clutch Cargo is far worse.

[nickca420]

Yeah, this sucks, but is it really worse than any of the 3-frames-per-second Korean sweatshop Nth generation Scooby Doo clone crap Hanna Barbera churned out in the 70s? At least it seems like someone cared about this.

[cazoo]

You are aware that Korean animators color almost 99% of all American and Japanese cartoons/anime? Douche.

[nickca420]

Spare me your fashionable righteous indignation, lackwit. I was referring specifically to Korean outfits used by Hanna-Barbera in the 1970s, which churned out bad animation as quickly and cheaply as possible.

[wahoo76]

Did I nod off briefly and miss Bucky? Or was this a rare Pepito solo effort?

[toontracker]

This episode features Pepito and Cal Coyote. You're the first person, in the four months that this has been on YouTube, to mention Bucky's absence.

[blastingrod]

I wouldn't go as far as to

say that this was the worst

cartoon I've ever seen...

dullest, yeah but I've seen

several far worse in other ways.

[fromthesidelines]

This was Singer's first animated series, produced in 1959. His next one was "COURAGEOUS CAT and MINUTE MOUSE" in 1960, featuring "Music Supervisor" [and L.A. deejay] Johnny Holliday as both voices. The third one was "SINBAD THE SAILOR" in 1961, later animated by Hanna-Barbera in a 1965 series of new episodes...

[ProductionX]

The cartoon does have that "We've just read the Preston Blair book and we think we know what we're doin'" look to it. :-)

[2005dave]

I think that's selling Reuben Timmins' ability quite short. He was an animator with the Fleischer's and later at M-G-M.

[heine71]

The voices of Bucky and Pepito and the Coyote are done by Dallas McKennon, who later voiced Archie in Filmation cartoons.

[SteveCarras]

ANd also good shows like GUmby and Pokey. Speaking of which, this is yet another series usingt he classic Capitol Stock Music, ironically misisng on Archie cartoons (was it used there?).

[SteveCarras]

BTW THat was in reference to Dallas McKennon doing voices for this, Sinbad, Archie and others.

Shoulda been a quote.
