I've been looking for this cartoon for 20 years now and I thought I had dreamt it all up.

The fish brought its own scales LOL

[@CJODell12]

This was actually the last cartoon from the Ub Iwerks studio.

[@nadiazimov9911]

wow, thanks for the info, pal

[@fromthesidelines]

Yep, the last one. Carl Stalling moved over to the Leon Schlesinger studio, and worked on Warner Bros. cartoons for the next 22 years. Ub Iwerks subcontracted a few of them during 1937, and rejoined Walt Disney's studio in 1940.

7:17 Bullet Bill's debut

[@mattlydon3531]

A Nintendo employee must've watched this cartoon and got inspired to create Bullet Bill.

Weird but cute

[@alankent]

So sad that children are taught that it is okay to treat others like dross.

[@robbiejordan4119]

Was this a one off?

[@geoffreyrichards6079]

Yeah, from this studio. The characters did make an appearance in the Walter Lantz short “Boy Meets Dog” and a live-action film in 1941, but neither of them were popular enough to become a series.

Little Rascals ripoff.

[@cartoonjoe]

Actually, It's the other way around. Hal Roach patterned his OUR GANG/LITTLE RASCALS shorts after the REG'LAR FELLERS comic strip.

[@stephenholloway6893]

Joe's right. The Our Gang shorts premiered in 1922. While Reg'lar Fellers was launched in 1917.
