Porky's Snooze Reel is a 1941 Looney Tunes short directed by Robert Clampett and Norman McCabe.

Plot[]

Porky shows a newsreel parody. It includes an Elks parade; bad tax advice; a Swiss navy battleship; Lew Lehr presents a dog show; a flooded town; a tank trap; a mine that is swallowed by a jellyfish; several new airplanes; a horse race with a photo finish; and a swimming race around the everglades.

Censorship[]

On the redrawn version of this cartoon that aired on Nickelodeon, the sequence with the giant jellyfish eating an underwater mine was edited to remove the part after the explosion, where a row of jelly jars land on the ocean floor along with a sign that reads, "Six Delicious Flavors". The computer-colorized version that aired on the same network (and later, Cartoon Network and Boomerang) reinstated the punchline to that joke.

Notes[]

  • This is the most recent black and white Warner Bros. cartoon still under copyright. All black and white cartoons released after this are in the Public Domain.
  • This was Norman McCabe's only short to still be under copyright. The rest of Norm McCabe's shorts are public domain, including his World War II shorts that are rarely shown on American TV.
  • This was the one of two cartoons that were directed by both Bob Clampett and Norman McCabe, the other one being "The Timid Toreador" a year before. Norm finished the cartoon after Bob was ill during production.
