I'm not a fan of the comic, in fact I could never even understand what the comic strips were about, just that there's some guy always smoking and not much facial expression.
There are some funny characters in this, and I did laugh a few times. But mostly, I was just kind of bored and hoping it would end soon. The animation is nothing great, it's kind of similar to the Peanuts style of animation, same era. The majority of this cartoon is short scenes where the characters randomly trail off and start babbling about some hippy nonsense. Revolution, Vietnam, and other such things. There's some hippy singing parts, folk music and stuff.
Overall, it's only about 30 minutes long, if even that. If you're a fan of the comic, you may enjoy it. But for me, I guess it's just not my generation. I should've been alive during the 60s, then maybe I'd have a better understanding of the burnt out old hippy mindset.
