What's the most remarkable, extraordinary season?

Yes, we've been alluding to this for months, and it's happened: the most perfect year of cartoons in the history of animation. Willard Bowsky steers Popeye and co. into Technicolor two-reel waters with the phenomenal (but awkwardly paced) Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor, but it's the much maligned Seymour Kneitel who's commanding most of the shorts this year, with too many rich character moments for Olive Oyl, Wimpy, Bluto, and the new-to-animation Swee'pea to count. It's our longest voyage yet as we examine just what made each of these shorts a technological marvel and the Fleischer artists the top of their field. See how many of Sammy Timberg's songs you are humming after this!

Cartoons discussed:
- Vim, Vigor and Vitaliky

In BRIDGE AHOY, Wimpy tosses up one rivet in exchange for one hamburger each time. For all the progress Popeye, Olive and Wimpy made so far—counting all the rivets, his fat moocher ass would’ve been dead by then!

Definitely one of the best seasons. Gus Wickie as Bluto and the use Wimpy really enriched the Popeye cartoons in this timeframe. If only Wickie stayed with the studio; He was the best Bluto in my opinion.

Kicked in the ass? Or kicked in the balls? Boys, boys, don't argue -- let's show some brotherly love and meet in the middle ... let's just agree that Popeye whacked Bluto in the taint.

Seriously though, any thought on why they dropped the words when the animals all say "Sindbad the Sailor" again when Sindbad confronts Popeye? They're clearly still mouthing the words. Maybe because it just seemed better that way?

Love those hilarious ad-libs by Gus Wickie and Jack Mercer in the 1936 Popeyes.

For a while, I assumed the title of “What! No Spinach?“ was derived from the Buster Keaton/Jimmy Durante vehicle “What! No Beer?“. But evidently there’s a 1926 Harry Sweet short with the same name.

Love the episode. For me Bowsky is again the MVP. I love I ski love ski you ski so much.. Greatest Popeye fight of all time IMO. Didn't Famous try and redo the fight, to much lesser effect? Olive's screaming at the end is so funny. Might be one of Mae Questel's funniest moments as the character.
