Toon Legends: Popeye in Never Sock a Baby (1939)

Popeye (Jack Mercer) disciplines Swee'Pea (vocal effects by Margie Hines) for something that happened off-camera, and sends to little tyke off to bed without supper. Now, you'll see how gentle Popeye is with the spanking. Anyway, it leads to a battle with both sides of Popeye's conscience....!

Here's "Never Sock a Baby":



This was remade 21 years later as a TV short, "Baby Phase", but with a completely different plot.

Rating: B.
