Intellectual Interlude

Olive Oyl tells Popeye that he needs to be more intellectual, so she enrolls herself and Popeye into adult education classes. While there, he samples a scientist's "Intellectual Spinach" potion which gives him genius-level intelligence. Popeye becomes a celebrity intellectual. But when people try to take advantage of Popeye's knowledge, he decides to quit school.

Popeye, Olive Oyl, Teacher, Scientist

The title card mistakenly gives the copyright date as "MCMXLI" (1941).

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.

Yugoslavian title: "Intelektualni Intermezzo."
