Additional Information about the TV Cartoon Popeye And The Giant

Popeye And The Giant Production Information
	Jack Kinney Productions Animated Characters: Popeye, Brutus, Wimpy, Sea Hag. First Aired about 1961. Running Time: 5:30 minutes. Color U.S.A.

Production Notes:

King Features had no cartoon studios, so Popeye storyboards were produced in its offices, while animation was divided between Paramount/Famous Studios, Larry Harmon Productions, Total TV Productions, Gene Deitch/Rembrandt Studios, Halas and Batchelor and Jack Kinney Productions.

Of those stations which bought the King Features Popeye cartoons in 1960, 90% renewed their contracts in 1965.

Note the change in the villain's name… from Bluto to Brutus.

To shrink the giant Wimpy, Popeye feeds him "essence of spinach."

Stock footage from "Ballet De Spinach" is used in which Brutus laughs outside a window. A moment earlier, Brutus is inside a house looking at Wimpy!
