I love this movie so much

Just what I expected

Admirable film.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Decent Foghorn Leghorn short, directed by Robert McKimson. The story has Foghorn helping a weasel try to get into the chicken coop, for no other reason than to tick off the guard dog. The dog, by the way, is not Barnyard Dog but a new one voiced by Lloyd Perryman. The weasel (and this basic plot) was used more than once in Foghorn cartoons. It always seemed like the Looney Tunes version of a crackhead jonesing for a fix. This one also includes the famous "numbered feathers" bit. Solid voice work from Mel Blanc and Lloyd Perryman. Lively music from Milt Franklyn. The animation is nice and colorful. Can't say I care for the character design for the dog, though. It looks like an old dirty carpet or something. It's not a great Foghorn cartoon but it is enjoyable enough. The weird country dog and the crackhead weasel keep things interesting and Foghorn gets some funny lines.

. . . continues in WEASEL STOP. It seems like every other outing featuring either Daffy Duck or Foghorn Leghorn Rooster involves an explosion or varmint plucking Daffy or Leghorn nude (save for their boxer shorts), after which the bare bird says, "Fortunately, I keep all my feathers numbered." That begs a question. I might keep all my toothpaste tubes--past and present--carefully enumerated, but what good would that do once all the white stuff has been Squooze out? Next time you take your Thanksgiving turkey out of your oven, try inserting all of its feathers BACK into the holes you carefully numbered when you plucked it. See for yourself if "Tom" suddenly becomes the "life of the party." Jeffrey Dahmer "experimented" for years on all creatures great and small in his parents' basement before he moved up to humans. I think the Hollywood Cold Case Squad should try to correlate the whereabouts of the Looney Tunes "numbered feathers"-obsessed writer with the Blue Dahlia Murder Case and similar unsolved Kinkster Killings.

One thing that strikes me about Robert McKimson's Foghorn Leghorn short "Weasel Stop" is the absence of Barnyard Dawg (who has on ongoing feud with FL). In his place there's an inattentive mutt whom a weasel - one of the recurring characters in FL cartoons - plans to trick in order to steal chickens. Foggy is only too happy to help the little guy (just to play his usual practical joke on the barely reactive hound). However, things don't go quite as planned...This was far from my favorite Foghorn Leghorn cartoon; I usually like it when FL and BD get to carry out their regular shenanigans. But in the grand scheme of things, just about any, I say just about any Foghorn Leghorn is good Foghorn Leghorn. Worth watching, that is.

This particular Foghorn Leghorn is my favorite one and that's largely because of a dog that that strikes me as part Andy Griffith and part Bugs Bunny. Old Foggy (who is, I admit, a bit of a blowhard and worse than usual in this one) doesn't stand a chance! The script is particularly good here, although the dog's folksy sayings wll not suit everyone's taste. I think they're great! There are some good sight gags here and it's well worth your time, especially if you like to see Foghorn take his lumps now and then.
