Jolly Frolics

Jolly Frolics is a UPA animated cartoon series. Thirty-eight films were produced in the series, theatrically released from 1948 to 1959, pioneering the use of limited animation.

Due to their mature themes, they weren't considered animation appropriate for younger audiences, and as a result have never aired on television (with some exceptions, like the cartoons with The Fox and the Crow, Mr. Magoo and Gerald McBoing-Boing plus some others which were more family-friendly in tone, as they were aired in the package TV series Totally Tooned In). They were released on DVD by TCM in 2012 with a MOD re-release in 2014.
