The Shooting Of Dan McGoo

Last Saturday we featured Dangerous Dan McFoo, a 1939 Warner Bros. cartoon directed by Tex Avery.  Today, we have a 1945 version of the same story, also directed by Avery, but this time for MGM.  It is interesting to note the difference six years and a different studio can make.  From the Internet Archive, and starring Droopy, here is The Shooting Of Dan McGoo.
