Don’t feel bad. I’m 68 and I’ve been a fan of the comic ever since I learned to read. Yet I never knew that there was an animated cartoon of Beetle Bailey, either.
Lt. Fuzz’s voice is Howard Morris. He did a number of voice overs in cartoons. He’s mostly remembered for his roll in the Andy Griffith Show as the character of Ernest T. Bass. As Barney on the show said about him, “He’s a NUT!!!!”
Actually Howard did most of the voices in this particular TV short. Nearly every character in fact he did voiced expect Snorkel and Zero for example that was Allen Melvin.
@@davidmunson1154 it certainly does. He voiced Jethro Hatrock and Weirdly Grusomesome in the Flintstones as well as many other character in that show. He also voiced Adam Ant.
This is new to me also, but as soon as I heard some of the characters, I knew it was real. Howard Morris, the actor who portrayed Ernest T. Bass on the Andy Griffith show was a voice actor on this. Even if we don't see it at all the credits.
I had this exact episode (along with others) on VHS as a kid. Weird how i can remember the exact inflection of the lines even though I haven't seen it in well over 20 years lmao
Cheer up, let’s just suppose that some tragedy occurs with Calvin’s parents, and he and Hobbs go to Arlen, Texas, to live with Aunt Rahab and Uncle Beetle?
@@ffjsb There were Beetle Bailey themed army toys (jeeps, tanks, rocket launchers and of course figures of the characters). I believe Hasbro made them.
Previous reply was total accident. Anyway, Sad Sack deserves a visit to Arlen, Texas, where some eccentric biological relative leaves him a few good oil wells.
Unless he takes an honorable discharge back to civilian life, marries Miss Baxley the civilian secretary of General Halftrack, and relocates to the Texas town of Arlen.
The cartoonists who worked on this have been gone for years. Many of them go back to the days of the Fleischer Studios. The director, Seymour Kneitel, married Max’s daughter Ruth.
@@abbycollins King Features didn't have an animation studio so it was outsourced to other studios including Paramount. Which unlike the Popeye TV shorts, they were credited at the outro.
@@ricardocantoral7672 Especially given the budget Paramount gave them even for the theatrical shorts it's not that good far as the animation quality, I do agree but it's impressive that they even bother kept the studio open at this point.

Thanks for bringing a Sunday comic to life!
Our pleasure!
Glad to oblige.
Can't believe in my 50+ years I've never known there was a cartoon of Beetle Bailey!
Never heard of it til now either.

@@michaelmckenna6464 Same here.
Me neither!.
DITTO and I'm 54 !!!
2:18 "And do NOT call me 'sir'! I work for a living!"
(My dad heard that joke a lot when he was in the Army.)
I made that mistake of that in the Army. Imagine my confusion.😲
Yep you defo. do not call sgts "sir"
@@alexcarter8807 Well, you can't call 'em ma'am.😆😆😆😆😆😆
It figures.
It happens.
Man, I just love watching Beetle Bailey,why there isn’t more cartoons of him is tragic,this is straight classic
Right on.

His voice has that "Hanna Barbera" quality to it.
@@davidmunson1154 it certainly does. He voiced Jethro Hatrock and Weirdly Grusomesome in the Flintstones as well as many other character in that show. He also voiced Adam Ant.
He was also the voice of Jughead Jones on the Archies cartoon show.Also he did an episode of the Twilight Zone.
@@royallison5307 Yes for Filmation. Expect the Beauty is only Fur Deep episode on the original series that was Don Messick.
I totally forgot all about Beetle Bailey. Used to watch it as a kid.
Likewise.
I love cartoons I remember this one used to be in the funny papers I'm 66 years old and I still love cartoons.
I’m only 71, but I just wish Beetle would get himself happily married off to Miss Baxley; civilian secretary of General Halftrack.
I’m 60 years old I love my cartoons 🙏🏾☝🏽💯🤷🏽♂️😁
Ditto.
Ditto.
Howard was such a funny comedian and his Southern accents were spot on and he wasn't even from the South.
How true that was.
I remember seeing these animated Beetle Bailey cartoons back in the 1960's. It's been quite a while.
Likewise.
I loved Otto the dog.
Imagine how it would look if Otto tried courting Hank Hill’s bloodhound Lady Bird?
I watched these cartoons back in the early 1970s before I was 10 years old. It is great to see them again. Thank you for posting this.
You're welcome!
All the way.
Likewise.
Ernie Borgnine would be a perfect Servant Snorkel!
But he's mermaid man instead 🤣
Only if Clint Eastwood was Beetle Bailey, and Sarah Jessica Parker as Miss Baxley.
You sure that you don’t mean Lieutenant Commander Quentin McHale?
Hahaha what a great episode. Any episode that involves invisible paint always has funny results.
Don’t you mean invisible paint?
This is new to me also, but as soon as I heard some of the characters, I knew it was real. Howard Morris, the actor who portrayed Ernest T. Bass on the Andy Griffith show was a voice actor on this. Even if we don't see it at all the credits.
Apparently they had been limited due to the budget reasons.
I didn't know they had an actual cartoons for these I thought they were just in comic books.
I remember the comic book. The issue I had had Beetle Bailey temporarily stationed near The Berlin Wall.
How often a lot of us get too easily confused.
He should have been seen visiting the grave of the great reformer, Martin Luther.
The most intellectual cartoon in existence
Together with “KING OF THE HILL”, “DARIA”, “DOUG”, “RUGRATS”, and “PEANUTS”.
It's amazing how that paint doesn't take effect until you're done applying it, and it affects things inside other things too!
Then one good cloudburst, and everything’s back to business as usual.
Beetle Bailey is a lot like Gomer Pyle, only Gomer doesn't get beat up by Sgt. Carter the way Beetle does by Sgt. Snorkel.
How true that is.
I had this exact episode (along with others) on VHS as a kid. Weird how i can remember the exact inflection of the lines even though I haven't seen it in well over 20 years lmao
I remember Beetle Bailey from the comics: the Sunday NY Journal American and then later the NY Sunday(Daily)News.
I found them in the Lexington Herald-Leader in Kentucky.
The voice actor of Beetle Bailey also voiced Jughead.
Yep.
great strip...just BAAAADDD voicing!!
Possibly.
I guess we’ll never know how the inspection went
Don’t forget about the cloudburst.
I'm 64 and I Remer Beetle Bailey cartoons.
KFS also had Krazy Kat and Snuffy Smith cartoons as well.
Beetle Bailey and Snuffy Smith all the way.
Howard was such a funny person...some needs to write his biography.
How true that is.
Imagine a live action sitcom of Beetle Bailey. I don't know who'd play Beetle, but I'd have Carroll O Connor playing Sergeant Snorkel.
I’m thinking about Arnold Stang as the perfect Beetle for the sitcom.
He's dead.
Both of them yes but back then it could have happened
Gomer Pyle for beetle
@@justina249
thaat was what they did make beattetle baily live action but Jim neighbord is dead so can't use him
AWESOME...
Thanks!
You got it.
I love Sarge!❤
How would you feel knowing that Sarge was proposing marriage to Cathy Andrews (from the Sunday newspaper comic “CATHY”?”
Howard Morris and Allan Melvin are doing the voices.
So you noticed.
Let's all be honest here.......... This is exactly what we wanted Bill Watterson to do with Calvin and Hobbes! 🤨😒☹️
Cheer up, let’s just suppose that some tragedy occurs with Calvin’s parents, and he and Hobbs go to Arlen, Texas, to live with Aunt Rahab and Uncle Beetle?
Beto el Recluta en Latinoamérica...el Recluta Bombilla en Chile en los 50's
Bueno.
I had NO idea Beetle Bailey was an animated cartoon; I thought is was just a comic strip!
Same here. Evidently wasn't a very big hit.
@@ffjsb 50 Theatrical Cartoons from 1962 thru 1964. Not too shabby !
Yep, I thought that too :-)
@@ffjsb There were Beetle Bailey themed army toys (jeeps, tanks, rocket launchers and of course figures of the characters). I believe Hasbro made them.
@@michaelmckenna6464 Never saw any of that stuff, even used.
I am working at Camp Swampi now
Ft. Hood or Ft. Dix??
Interesting.
Most likely isn’t it Fort Knox.
What year(s) was this originally on T.V.?
In the opening credits (0:45) the copyright date is MCMLXIV (1964.)
Interesting question.
Thanks for the information.
Charlie in The Heezy 💎
Don’t recall him.
Saskatchewan!🇨🇦
Must visit up that way one of these days.
Dennis Marks who wrote this one, Also wrote a few Batfink shorts
“My wings are like a shield of steel.”
King Features drew Popeye. Mort Walker drew Hagar The Horrible
Actually, someone else drew Hagar the horrible.
Hagar too!
Possibly.
Sad Sack is another old goody.
“My wings are like a shield of steel.”
Previous reply was total accident.
Anyway, Sad Sack deserves a visit to Arlen, Texas, where some eccentric biological relative leaves him a few good oil wells.
It's not the peanuts, but....
Beetle Bailey could easily find himself living across the street from an adult Charlie Brown if he takes up residence in the Texas town of Arlen.
If beetle worked hard he could make general
Beatle work?!
When have you EVER known Beetle Bailey to work hard (except at practical jokes) 😆
Beetle worked very hard at avoiding work.
Unless he takes an honorable discharge back to civilian life, marries Miss Baxley the civilian secretary of General Halftrack, and relocates to the Texas town of Arlen.
Some eccentric aunt leaves him an oil well in the Texas town of Arlen. He just lays back and collects his royalty checks.
id read these while on the shitter funny stuff...
Puzzling.
This is some amazing animation!!! Did you make this?
The cartoonists who worked on this have been gone for years. Many of them go back to the days of the Fleischer Studios. The director, Seymour Kneitel, married Max’s daughter Ruth.
@@2005dave that’s really cool to hear! The similar names of the channel and the company are what confused me tbh

Amazing? This cheap TV animation?

In the army Beatle was my hero .lol

Clint Eastwood as Beetle Bailey,
Sarah Jessica Parker as Miss Baxley,
and John Goodman as Sarge.
What year would this be?
Definitely somewhere in the 1960s.
William Morris ':Family took overbBeetlebbandvah
Unusual.
Have not seen one of these cartoons in oh maybe 50 years or there about
Welcome to our channel!
Never knew they did an animation about him
Did you know that he is Blondie brother of Blondie and dagwood fame
that's hi and lois. he's lois' brother.
Not exactly.
Looks like she and Hi are going to become Matron-Of-Honor and Bestman when Beetle marries Miss Baxley.
😁🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Yep.
The voices of the characters make this unwatchable, even when I was a child in the 1960s it was unwatchable
To quote the little man from the draftboard in the 1945 animated short subject movie of “DRAFTEE DAFFY”, “Well, now I wouldn’t say that.”
