Popeye

I downloaded several old Popeye and Superman and Betty Boop videos from archive.org.  I wanted to see if my children will take to it. Surprisingly they did, even though the videos are grainy.  They just spend their summer vacation days watching these shows over and over.  Spinach has become a by-word to them.  But just as in previous generations, children aren't big fans of spinach.

Pia's question is fascinating: What does Bluto eat?

They also particularly enjoy a rather macabre Cinderella version of Betty Boop.  I didn't see Betty Boop when I was a child so this is a first time for me as well.
