Swifty & Shorty, a series of 16 shorts produced by Paramount for theatrical use, was based on the comedy recordings of Eddie Lawrence, who also voiced both central characters.
In "The Once Over", it's a trip to the barber shop.......
Not sure if these ever showed up on Nickelodeon, which ran some lesser known Paramount shorts back in the day.
Rating: B-.

ReplyDeleteThey did. The Swifty & Shorty aired as part of Nick's Cartoon Kablooey, which, as you mentioned, was a showcase for Paramount shorts, as well occasionally on Weinerville.
Have to remember to do a piece on Kablooey at some point. Thanks.
