- Quotes
Screwy Squirrel: [as Meathead chases Screwy, they pass the end title] Say, that was the end of the picture.
[They walk back to the end title card]
Meathead: Yup, that's it all right.
Screwy Squirrel: So long, Meathead.
Meathead: Goodbye.
Screwy Squirrel: Say, what was the idea of chasing me all through the picture?
Meathead: Because you're crazy. You think you're Napoleon, but you ain't. I am!
[Acts crazy]
Screwy Squirrel: You know, I like this ending. It's silly.
- Crazy creditsScrewy Squirrel and Meathead are chasing when they stop in front of an end title card on a black background, with the words "The End" in green. They realize that it is the end of the picture. They say goodbye to each other and Screwy says "Hey! Before you leave, just what was the idea chasing me over the picture?". Meathead says "Because you're crazy. You take your appointment. But your ace. I'm crazy." Then Meathead begins to "screw" himself and runs from the cartoon breaking the title card. Then the screen zooms in to Screwy, who says "You know, I like this ending. It's silly". Then the cartoon ends and the typical "A Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Cartoon" card appears.

Featured review
Good Short
Happy Go Nutty (1944)
*** (out of 4)
Tex Avery directed animated short with Screwy Squirrel escaping from a mental hospital and being chased by an even crazier dog. There's some pretty good drawings here and the two characters are entertaining enough for this nine-minute film. There are several nice gags including one scene with some "Coo-Coo" Cola.
Good entertainment for the whole family.
You have plenty of different options in watching this one but the Warner release has been remastered and looks the best.
