While Paul smith had some real stinker cartoons with woody, it can't be denied that he did make some hidden gems. Case in point, the bird who came to dinner. Who goes back to his old mean, loafer ways, and he's a joy here. The annoying kid deserves all the torture he gets from woody, and doesn't hold back. This one is just plain of devilish! Woody has more of his original demented energy here than in other shorts, and it's a breath of fresh air. Animation is solid, with better work from Les Kline and great animation from ray abrams. Gaga are punchy and timed extremely well, showing that Paul smith did have some great talent. Overall, one of woodys best shorts from this time period and an absolute must watch!
