BEANY AND CECIL

This is the first cartoon I remember. I was under two years old when this cartoon was popular but it is one of the first memories I have. Does anybody remember Beany and Cecil? I bet The Writer does!!!

That looks vaguely familiar.... I like how Cecil is actually drawn to look like a sock puppet!

Yeah, the sock puppet was cool! Also, I'm pretty sure that Beany's cap is where the propellor hats came from! I really loved Beany's cap!

"Help, Cecil, help!"

"I'm coming, Beany Boy."

And who could forget the dastardly villain, D.J., the D.J., or Dishonest John, the Dishonest John! "Nyaa-aa-aa"

There's a summary on the series at Wikipedia.

Fellows of a certain age do voices from the show after certain amounts of libation foster a reckless, childish abandon. That, or we just like to remember the fun we had when we didn't have to add "at heart" when calling ourselves kids.
