Those weenies are way too happy about being roasted! I love these old cartoons...so much imagination in them.

I still say there are some drugs that we aren't being told about...

This version of Krazy may have little enough to do with Herriman's original, but many of his cartoons, like this one, are a lot of fun, and have good gags. Personally I like this character and these cartoons. I like Herriman's Krazy too, but don't think economically successful cartoons could ever have captured Herriman's quirky poetics. Maybe they should have called this Crazy Cat or Wacky Kat or Kit Kat, so people could just get on with enjoying them or not on their merits, their own energy.

what a great cartoon! so much fun!!!!!!

Krazy Kat looks cuter in these cartoons than he is in the comic strips.

I love how in the rollercoaster scene Krazy just broke the laww of physics even more and started to fly

That's because half of them worked either for or with Disney.

This, Felix, Porky Pig, and other cartoons in this category, and made in the 30's, 40's, 50's, and early 60's, are what I grew watching on television in the fifties, up to the mid sixties. I love them. The "characters" dance in time to the music, most of the time the music is great, there are shadows, and backgrounds. The Hanna Barbera cartoons of the Huckleberry Hound/Quickdraw McGraw/Yogi Bear type, though still entertaining to me, but things were starting to change. The later ones, that my now grown kids watched, my now grown grand kids watched, and now the newer ones that my great grand kids watch, lose me. The exception being the Smurfs, and the movie length animated features. I've been able to purchase a lot of these old cartoons on Ebay, but I'm thankful to be able to just come here, and pull most of the member for a little comic relief when I need it. Thanks!

i have never seen these comics,but they are really good;krazy kat

Those days everybody was trying to copy Mickey Mouse, and it's obvious!

One writer described these cartoons as,"Related to the original in name only."

i had no idea that krazy kat haz been around so long

So how come we don't see Ignatz the mouse knocking Krazy Kat upside the head with a brick like he did in the 60's?

Nice background. It's night. Good thing there's a switch.

Who else here watches scrappy the cartoon

This is not Herriman's Krazy Kat.

@Keven19741 Ignatz did not appear in any of the Mintz/Columbia Shorts. The 60s version of KK was like that of the orignal seen in the 10's

@EJDW well I guess Mintz did a "Chazz Bono" on him

How fucking stoned were these guys who made this 0_0?

Hmmm. Hot dogs look a bit raw - still alive, that is.

That's a totally different Krazy Kat.

Krazy cat is look like Felix the cat

I have the plush

@TiCar85 nice comment whoever you are,aye is you a girl

There is so little narrative continuity to this cartoon (which is NOT Krazy Kat, BTW), and the titular "weenie roast" is quickly abandoned (where did those weenies go to, anyway? An alternate dimension??) But having been produced in the depths of the Great Depression, I guess the average movie goer just wanted lots of gags. You can bet a lot of tummies were rumbling while cartoons like these played on the silver screen; 1931 was the worst year of the Depression.

@puttinmy2sencein Different Krazy Kat character. I'm surprised this was made with that name as the original Krazy was a cartoon strip from the early 1900's as you can see here on youtube. He (or she) was with Ignatz and a Police Dog, it was kind of a love triangle, as a kid I used to love the mouse (Ignatz) hitting Krazy in the head with bricks. Then the Police dog would put Ignatz in jail and on and on and on.

thatz a mouze nut a katz

This is Krazy Kat in name only. Krazy Kat did not look like that, act like that, get in situations like that, and DID NOT HAVE A GIRL FRIEND! Black Krazy was in love with white mouse Ignatz who was definitely male, white Offisa Pup, a dog, at times shows romantic interest in Krazy. Krazy's gender could be described as fluid. In one strip gender specific pronouns describing Krazy change four times in one sentence. In another strip Krazy ponders marriage and whether to take a husband or a wife. At other times all three are depicted as males but express romantic interests toward each other, remarkable for the time when the mere mention of homosexuality could get a book or play banned by the government as obscene. Krazy never shows any romantic interest in female characters they often show animosity towards each other. This confusion and the romance of white for black and black for white animals, during a time of miscegenation laws when suggestions of interracial love could also get a book banned, were probably deliberate on the part of cartoonist George Herriman. His birth certificate labeled him as 'colored,' his grandmother was a free woman of color. Herriman was 'passing' as white. If his birth certificate had become public he would have been fired and his strip dropped by the syndicate. His characters were also passing as various things sometimes diametric opposites at the same time.
