Wile E. Coyote suspends his chase with the Road Runner to explain to two young boys watching him on TV why he wants to catch the speedy bird.
Just watched this on YouTube. I just found out this was an edited version of a longer cartoon called The Adventures of the Road Runner which would explain the abrupt ending. Despite that and some reused animation, I found this a quite enjoyable short with some amusing scenes like those two boys talking in a monotone while watching the cartoon commenting on the action. It's soooo funny when one of them imitates the Road Runner by saying, "Beep-beep, zip-tang!" And then when one of them asks why the Coyote wants to eat the bird and then that character stops the action by talking directly to them as he gets out a cooking book that points out the various ways to enjoy a Road Runner meal, well, that was quite amusing too. Like I said, the way things end makes Zip Zip Hooray! a little uneven. Still, I'd recommend it if you can't find the longer version I mentioned at the beginning...
