This was the first of a handful of cartoons featuring "Egghead," a Looney Tunes character that never really caught on. Egghead is tossed out of his big-city apartment for creating too much noise, riding a pogo-stick and pretending he's a cowboy. When he's thrown out on his ear, a newspaper is next to his prone body and he sees an advertisement for a "Good cow puncher - Bar None Ranch, Wahoo, Wyoming."
He writes the letter and it arrives via Pony Express. When the cowboys open the thin letter, out pops Egghead (huh?). The cowboys then test him in a few things to see if he can qualify for the job.
Overall, despite the fact the main character (Egghead) has an irritating voice and many of the jokes are a bit lame, there was something charming and amusing about the whole thing, enough to recommend watching this. Apparently, Egghead was a forerunner for Elmer Fudd, with the latter doing a lot better in popularity.
