You can buy one on eBay for about $20 these days.
That section sounds different from the rest of the audio.
How about any western film? Cowboys killing indians. Not nice of them. Better warn those clutching their pearls.
Her boyfriend, a white dude named Ted Danson (Cheers tv show) appeared in black face at an event with her.
I believe that a warning must be given for early episodes of Sesame Street (seriously)
I watched a few episodes of “All in the Family” over the summer. Warnings for that too.
But current shows with gays slobbering all over each other, dirty jokes and naked people - not so much warning.
I had a green Frito Bandito eraser. Martian racism? Not me, I loved “My Favorite Martian”.
But Fred Quimby, Tom and Jerry Producer called her the maid:
The face of Mammy Two Shoes was deliberately hidden. We usually saw only the lower half of her body; the black maid's chin appeared once, as an exception, in "Part Time Pal", and the film's last shot showed Mammy Two Shoes far in the distance, pursuing Tom without our being able to see her feature clearly. Also in this short, it is revealed that Mammy wears a bandana (typical of black female cartoon characters of the 30's and 40's). We can also see (for a brief second) the back of her head when she "peeks in on 'dem two cats", before getting her butt slapped with a frying pan and shovel by Tom and Butch in "A Mouse in the House". We also see her complete body (but in a shadow) as she walks down the street (revealing she is wearing a hat with a flower) in "Mouse Cleaning".
However, in 1950's "Saturday Evening Puss", we can see her whole body, including her face! Fred Quimby explained about this in an article published in a 1951 edition of The Hollywood Reporter:
"A young lady, after seeing a Tom and Jerry cartoon, inquired about the maid's face, which is never shown. To quote her (and we have it in writing lest there be any doubters among you): 'It gave me the impression that the operators in the booth must be having some sort of party, since every time the maid came on the screen, the only thing I could see was her feet. My curiosity is killing me. Before I go stark, raving mad, please tell me what she looks like.'
In this instance, we had an artist draw a special head of the maid to accompany the reply. We also explained that since Tom and Jerry were the stars of the pictures, we did not wish to do anything that might distract attention from them."
Wow. You really can find almost everything you [don’t] need on eBay, can’t you?
What about the Cisco Kid? When was the last time any episodes of that series aired as reruns?
