    Great and funny cartoon

    I really love Woody Woodpecker, it's my favorite series, along with Oggy and the Cockroaches and Looney Tunes. I like these cartoons better than Tom and Jerry.

    And now I will talk about one of the best Woody episodes, Belle Boys.

    This episode is really funny, has a good animation and music. Has funny gags, and a lot of funny things. A really good episode, like most of 1961-1964 episodes animated by Ray Abrams.

    I recommend you to watch this incrible episode, this episode is good like Real Gone Woody and The Reckless Driver! 10/10

    Hotel bellhopping with Woody Woodpecker and Buzz Buzzard

    Was very fond of Woody Woodpecker and his cartoons as a child. Still get much enjoyment out of them now as a young adult, even if there are more interesting in personality cartoon characters and better overall cartoons.

    That is in no way knocking Woody, because many of his cartoons are a lot of fun to watch and more and also still like him a lot as a character. He is a lot of fun here in 'Belle Boys' and never comes over too much of a jerk. While there is a preference for Wally Walrus, Buzz Buzzard is a worthy foil, formidable while taking the laughs well with great reactions to Woody's trickery.

    Enjoyed the hotel setting and the glamorous character Ga-Ga Gazoon, a character who one can understand what Woody and Buzz see in her. Story wise, the action and structure are typical Woody and Buzz, if you've seen other Woody and Buzz cartoons in terms of basic structure you've seen them all even in different settings.

    As ever, the animation is great. The characters are well drawn, but even better are the rich colours, meticulously detailed backgrounds and smooth backgrounds.

    Music is another strength here. It's characterful, lushly orchestrated and is not only dynamic with the action it even enhances it. The whole cartoon goes at a snappy pace, especially in the second half, and there are some very well-timed and extremely funny gags. The chemistry between Woody and Buzz is a lot of fun to watch and is the length they go to vie for Ga-Ga Gazoon's affections while tricking each other.

    All in all, not one of Woody's best but great fun nonetheless. 9/10 Bethany Cox

    This is one of the best and the funniest Woody episodes!

    Watch this episode! If you liked this episode, I also recommend to watch Real Gone Woody

    This is the picture that first brought the Ga-Ga Clan . . .

    . . . to America's attention. Documenting the starlet days of Lady's Granny, BELLE BOYS proves that this family's penchant for meaty duds goes back several generations. It's no secret in Tinsel Town that Lady teamed with Mr. Cooper in the latest iteration of A STAR IS BORN because he reminds her of how Woody and Grandma Ga-Ga had so much chemistry together in BELLE BOYS. Of course, attraction can be a two-way street, and her ancestor's negative reaction to Buzz in this same picture inspired her to embody similar loathing toward several male characters during her stint in HOUSE OF GUCCI. Therefore, one could argue that BELLE BOYS constitutes a cornerstone of Today's Popular Culture.

      The unusual looking metallic sculpture on the roof of the limo is modeled after an old fashioned analog television antenna. At the time of this short, in-vehicle TV sets and telephones were expensive luxuries, not everyday items.
