Toy Trouble

This is a very cute cartoon starring Sniffles and his friend the inchworm. However, despite excellent production values, I have a hard time enjoying this cartoon because the character of Sniffles is so gosh darn annoying! In fact, he is one of the most cloying and sickeningly sweet characters ever created by Looney Tunes. I think most of this is because of his cutesy-cutesy voice, but also because they tried so hard to make him sweet and likable that the character became saccharine and difficult to stomach. My advice is to skip this and all other Sniffles cartoons and concentrate on the later and much better Warner Brothers characters, such as Bugs Bunny.

By the way, although I saw a lot of Sniffles cartoons as a kid back in the early 70s, I have noticed that they are rarely shown on TV today--maybe people have wised up!
