Main Character(s):

Piggy

Summary:

Piggy is the captain of a steamboat who has to rescue Uncle Tom from drowning, after he is spooked by a trio of skeletons in a graveyard. Meanwhile, a villain tries to kidnap Piggy’s girlfriend.

That’s Not All, Folks:

This is Piggy’s last appearance.

This is the first of the infamous Censored Eleven, a group of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons that have been banned from television since 1968 due to racial stereotypes of black people.

What I Like About This One:

This is one of the least offensive of the Censored Eleven.

People on the boat showing off their dancing.

Piggy dancing on the edge of the boat but losing his balance and falling into the river where he makes a getaway from an alligator.

The doorknob on the graveyard entrance’s door is revealed to be a skeleton.

The villain’s comeuppance- being lowered on to a buzz saw!
