I figured May would seem like more ideal for Penelope Pitstop

I would agree, excspt she's nowhere near as clever. I'd have said Pearl would be the best out of all our cast.

I definitely remember this one! Great job all around casting wise too! Cedric'll have to pull out all the stops to outperform the great Paul Lynde in that role.

It's so funny and darned silly - a p-take of those old b&w melodrama films before talkies.

I'm always refered to as 'The Man' - which I always find amusing - I recall Dara O'Brynn's routine about being 'The Man' to a child on a train.

'You will do as your mother says! For I-AM-THE-MAN!!!!!' I've been called a lady as well which is puzzling - as well as my wimmins who have sometimes been called 'the man' or 'the boy' - no wonder I'm so flipped-up.

May would be more girly as Penny though, but April works too. Be funny if they all acted as the characters they were playing - badly.

It's an old Hanna Barbera cartoon - a spin-off 'Wacky Races' You must have heard of that one!

I thought the spin-offs were much better than Wacky Races - this and 'STOP THE PIGEON!!!' Penny was prettier in her own series too

I like "Stop The Pigeon!" AKA "Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines".
A nice collection of try-and-fail cartoons!

Yeah, I loved the spin-offs better than Wacky Races actually. They were better drawn at any rate.

Which episode wasthat in? I've got them all and I don't recall that. I wouldn't consider size 9 fat, but I'm a bloke so I know very little of wimmins' sizes (aprt from 12 being about average?)

Candy2021 In reply to Granitoons [2008-08-28 01:14:18 +0000 UTC]

12 is pretty average.

Penelope Pistop, is what popped into my head as soon as I saw this. That was a great cartoon. This is also a fantastic picture, your characters are also full of life great work.
