Subjective Rating: 6/10 (Okay, 2/4). It uses Art Deco style as a storytelling device, which puts it in a completely different world, visually, from any other cartoon that I've seen from this era. So that's interesting. It also has some laughs (from the dance number pictured above), which also makes it stand out from other cartoons that I've seen from this era. It's still far from good, though. There's no story to speak of (just a lot of singing and dancing) and no real gags (at least not anything like what I think of as a Looney Tunes gag).
Objective Rating (Average): 1.8/4 (Eh)
