Status: Partially lost


The Adventures of Paddy the Pelican is one of the first cartoons made for TV in the 1950's, airing on Chicago's WENR-TV.

Due to the low-production budget, it's infamous for its pencil sketch animation, dark backgrounds, looping sequences, and poor lip syncing.

Because of this, it is often mentioned among "the worst cartoons ever".

Episodes

Only 6 episodes of the series were made. Of those 6, 3 episode names are known, and only 2 are available online.
