Not one of the best, but in a way enjoyable
23 April 2004
'Chaser on the Rocks' is definitely not one of the best Road Runner vs. Wile E. Coyote cartoons, but I was entertained enough, I think. Coyote keeps seeing mirages of oases, with Road Runner swimming in the water, but of course every time when he arrives at the fake oases something goes wrong. Especially falling down from a cliff is very popular.

This cartoon is very predictable. The charm of most Road Runner vs. Wile E. Coyote cartoons is the fact that the predictability makes it funny. Most of the time there is also at least one gag you don't expect. Here the predictable moments are not funny at all, although they gave me a smile sometimes, and the surprise gag doesn't really work. Like 'Boulder Wham!' from the same year, it is a little too much of the same formula.
