It’ll be like, “ You thought *yesterday* was bad? Well, now you have a enormous metal chicken to deal with. And when our friends are sad we can leave him at their front door to cheer them up. Me: But on the plus side? It’s not towels. That’s like, $200 worth of chicken for free. Me: The 5-foot tall one was $300, marked down to $100. Me: You’re joking, but they’re kind of horrifically awesome. And that was exactly what I was still echoing through my head an hour later, when Laura and I stopped our shopping carts and stared up in confused, silent awe at a display of enormous metal chickens, made from rusted oil drums. Then Laura came to pick me up so we could go to the discount outlet together, and as Victor gave me a kiss goodbye he lovingly whispered, “ You are not allowed to bring any more goddam towels in this house or I will strangle you“. Then I pointed out that the last towels I’d bought were hot pink beach towels, and he was all “EXACTLY” and then I hit my head against the wall for an hour. I can’t tell you the details because it wasn’t interesting enough to document at the time, but it was basically me telling Victor I needed to buy new bath towels, and Victor insisting that I NOT buy towels because I “ just bought new towels“. In 2018 Pudgy was the face of Moschino's latest limited edition line for Chinese New Year, which is the Year of the Dog.This morning I had a fight with Victor about towels.Pudgy's creator Myron Waldman also stated in the 1995 biography Betty Boop: Queen of Cartoons that he disliked Bimbo the Dog.Pudgy means fat, the dog appears to be a slender, thin, tall.Pudgy appears on the artwork for Betty Boop's Double Shift sitting beside Billy Boop, but neither appear in the game.Bimbo was Betty Boop's boyfriend who was removed from the Betty Boop cartoons due to bestiality and the Hays Code. This is untrue, both Bimbo and Pudgy are entirely different characters. Most people think that Pudgy is the reincarnation of Bimbo, who was Betty's canine boyfriend who appeared in the earlier Betty Boop cartoons.Pudgy makes his last appearance in The Scared Crows which was released in 1939.In the cartoon Henry the Funniest Living American, Betty gives Pudgy as a gift to Henry.In Pudgy the Watchman, he yells "scram" to protect his fellow mice. Pudgy has only spoken one formal sentence in the whole of his appearances in Not Now, he states one line after being scratched by his rival the cat.He's known as Pudgy the Dog, but also mainly Pudgy the Pup, which makes more sense as he is a puppy.For example, The Little Mermaid Live! show had a Flounder puppet. However puppets are more easier to utilize. An original thought was to have a real dog portray Pudgy, and hire an animal trainer. Boop! the Musical (2023)īetty Boop's dog Pudgy is a puppet in Boop! the Betty Boop Musical. Pudgy has a girlfriend called Snooty a rich female dog who appears in two Betty Boop cartoons, which are Little Nobody, The Swing School. Pudgy's nameless dad, who Pudgy calls "My Daddy" appears in a photograph above his bed in Riding the Rails. Mae Questel might have provided the speaking voice for Pudgy, in the 1938 cartoon Not Now and sometimes panting sounds, etc. The departure of Mae Questel in 1938 indicates that Jack Mercer provided the voice of Pudgy, as the character was continued to be voiced when she retired from the Betty Boop cartoons. Some of her early mimic talent was duck, dog, cat, chicken, own and monkey. Mae Questel was originally billed as a impersonator. The role of Pudgy is often debated, as both Questel and Mercer were both known to mimic animals.
