Production notes
This cartoon may have two endings... a Paramount version, and the original, Jack Kinney one.
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.

Uncivil War
This is a well scripted & animated cartoon. What ruins it, however, is that last scene (animated by the Kinney Studios) was apparently destroyed (?) and replaced by a stock ending from an ending from a Paramount Cartoon Studios produced
film. The voice is out of sync with the
animation. Just watch the last scene where Popeye says, "Ya can't learn them too young". Something is not right here!?
