Mandie Mander | Cartoon Cartoons

Quite nice and heartwarming short this week but I have the feeling that I've seen the similar plot of the story before...

It has a nice moral however.

So, a Twitter sleuth calling themself AwesomePal did some digging through SAG-AFTRA's signatory files, and it turns out that 3 of these Cartoon Cartoons were greenlit, then had to be cancelled due to the merger with Discovery.

We were (potentially) that close in getting a Hungy Ghost series?!? Now I'm irked.

Short and musically fun, also pretty cool backgrounds.

Mouthwash Madness | Cartoon Cartoons

A hilarious animated short about Marie, who accidentally swallows her mouthwash and thinks she has poisoned herself. Her sisters then have to deal with the dramatic consequences.

Mouthwash Madness | Cartoon Cartoons

This is probably the least favorite short this week in my opinion, not that I hate it but I think it felt too real. And yeah, Marie is kinda the worst sister.

If there was one thing that got me chuckle is the "My will: you get nothing" joke.

Off The Menu | Cartoon Cartoons

Four animals who happen to be on a lot of menus: Angel, the fish, Sowley, the pig, Bullock, the bovine and Peck, the chicken have off-beat conversations about the world of food.

[Eldorado]

Clever to have a cartoon that serves as a debate-style talk show. However, I just don't see this getting greenlit since kids may not be interested in this kind of thing.

Off The Menu | Cartoon Cartoons

I enjoyed this one over the last week's one. I love the 90's cartoon vibes from it and I kinda missed the funny slapstick-y comedy.

 

[Nexonius]

New short, produced several years ago.

New short, produced several years ago.

Last week we had 90's comedy slapstick cartoon, this week we've got 2000's action cartoon.

It was a great and stylish short, but I didn't expect that familiar phone ringtone. It makes me wanna go back to 2000's for real.

Pig In A Wig | Cartoon Cartoons

After being dumped, a dishonest pig gets a wig to help him find a new girlfriend, but the wig turns out to be an alien from outer space that grows bigger each time he tells a lie.

[Eldorado]

This feels less like a pilot and more of a short.

Pig In A Wig | Cartoon Cartoons

This one has an interesting concept, but like @Eldorado said it's more of a one-shot story than a pilot.

Feels like a modern take of "Pinocchio", just replace nose with an alien wig when it comes to telling lies.

Pig In A Wig | Cartoon Cartoons

This was cute! Anyone else notice that the character animation was a bit more lively and expressive than a typical CN Studios show?

Even though this isn't really a pilot, this isn't the first short Sam Marin has made for Cartoon Network – hope he gets his own series greenlight eventually.

Scaredy Cat | Cartoon Cartoons

The short follows the adventure of two 11-year-olds, Scaredy Cat, a cute-scared-Vietnamese-cat-monster and his best friend, Ghost Girl, an outgoing-fearless-princess-demon as they attempt find a cooler pair of shoes.

Created by JJ Villard

Scaredy Cat | Cartoon Cartoons

I don't really like JJ Villard's sense of humor in his shows and I've never watch his shows in general but this short is way too fast and random in terms of animation. And to think that Scaredy Cat was going to have a full series...

However it's a perfect guilty pleasure short to watch for Halloween.

I'm surprised they greenlit it consider how Villard burned bridges with Cartoon Network. I'm surprised they even released this short.

Tell me about it! Villard even said he didn't regret it!
