The Off-Beats - Too Much Attention for September - Toonstalgia

 The Off-Beats - Too Much Attention for September

Summary

September is overwhelmed by attention from the Off-Beats.

Notes

This was the last short of episode 10 of season 1 of KaBlam! aside from Henry and June's closing. Interesting Fact - Television screens used to be made of glass. You'll understand the relevance of that fact if you watch the episode. 

According to KaBlam's wiki, this episode was written by Steven Dovas. Steven Dovas is also listed as part of the team working on Sniz & Fondue. One interesting credit for Steven Dovas aside from KaBlam! was Timberwolf, one of Chuck Jones' final projects. I looked it up and I have a lot of thoughts about it. But that's a different cartoon.

Even the Subheadings for the Synopses are Too Long

August asks September to join him in his helicart. He declines. The Off-Beats seeing September sitting quietly decides he needs company. September tries to sneak away. Betty Anne Bongo asks September to play bongos with her. September leaves. Tommy tries to talk to September in a dog language. September leaves. Repunzil pets September a little too enthusiastically. September leaves. Repunzil chases him. Seeing no escape, he gets a ride from August because he is more comfortable with August.
