When I was a kid, I hated watching the Bugs Bunny or Porky Pig show when they showed the REAAAALLLY old Merrie Melodies cartoons from the early and mid 1930s. They had so much singing and cuteness and lacked the edge that made Warner Brothers the top animation studio for shorts in the 40s and 50s. In light of this, I was shocked when I just saw FREDDY THE FRESHMAN. Like other Harman-Ising cartoons from Merrie Melodies it had a lot of singing and a wide assortment of barnyard animals. But, it also seemed pretty interesting and fresh in many ways--with some cute gadgetry and a certain likability. While NOT as good as the later toons, it still stood on its own pretty well with an interesting story, a memorable song and very good black and white animation. Nice job.
FYI--At about three and a half minutes into the toon, there's a mouse that is the spitting image of Mickey! I wonder what Disney thought of this?
