Plot: Famous Studios had been a by-the-numbers studio for years by the time this was made in 1960. They made cartoons designed almost solely geared towards the tastes and attention spans of young children. The backgrounds and animation were basic and rather bland (nice colors, though) and plots were simple. This cartoon concerns a very henpecked husband who buys a robot with the idea that it will simplify his life-an old plot done more successfully in one way or another by virtually every studio. The cartoon is rather bland and quite predictable, though the ending is quite cute. Famous Studios created some memorable characters, like Casper and Baby Huey, but this was a one-shot. Memorable only because of the ending. For children under seven, it probably works better. Recommended for that audience.
