Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesSince Larry Simms was quickly approaching his pre-teen years, the producers of the series decided that "Baby" Dumpling couldn't go on being called "Baby" forever and they decided to drop the moniker and call the Bumstead son by his given name, Alexander. This is the first in the Blondie series in which it went into effect.

HORSEFEATHERS!
10 Stars, especially for goofy Hugh Herbert.
Veteran character actor and comedian Herbert is the PERFECT match for Arthur Lake. These two make an incredible team, and what puts this wacky episode over the top. I agree with the last reviewer, this is a re-working of BLONDIE IN SOCIETY, at least the idea is there. In that film, Dagwood acquired a Great Dane. This time around, Dag gets himself a horse, although he was supposed to purchase a HOUSE for Mr. Dithers.
You have to admit, watching Dithers blow his top is always fun. Jonathan Hale was a natural in this role, and a master of the slow burn.
Hugh Herbert enters the picture as Mr. Brewster, an eccentric millionaire who actually is interested in the old racehorse. Best of the best is a wild foxhunt you can't miss. Real goofy stuff, and well directed by series regular Frank Strayer. The horse is played by Reggie, who only appeared in this film. There are no notes on the horse, which is unusual, unless it may have belonged to someone who "loaned" the animal out to the studio.
Look for Alan Dinehart, playing Mr. Martin. Dinehart was a memorable actor who generally played businessmen, best in shifty roles. He passed suddenly about a year after this episode in 1944.
Listen for the William Tell Overture! One of the last episodes written by Karen De Wolf, who wrote some of the most classic stories for the series.
Not to be missed. Remastered on dvd, and thanks to Movies Net for running this classic series on Saturday mornings.
