MonopolyMan- Overthinkingit may be many things, but it is SO not “anti-entertainment.” Far, FAR from it. I can’t tell if you are being sarcastic, agreeing with or jibing at the post (or Pop Culture) more than half the time because of your fabulous* grammar, but (I think) it sounds almost like you believe the post is thinking too hard. Well, reconsider the name of the site. Please. Thank you. Have a nice day.**

*That was sarcasm.

**So was that, but only partially.

Some radical anti-entertainment people will always see something negative in everything.
I personally do not see what’s so wrong with this cartoon compared to other Looney’s. They made a great couple of characters that had potential skunk cases, gets chased etc (thank god,not so one sided carton. I’d run out of ideas after like 2 episodes.).And that musical part in every episode – pure genius.
It is now-days dumb people see different shit in almost everything (Alas .. some still believe Earth is 6000 years old, so ). It is like a big bubble of negative thinking that will pop someday

“Seriously, looking back, wasn’t Pepe Le Pew’s amorous exploits a coded reference to miscegenation/interracial dating?”
Wow.. I am stunned by the deepness of thought to come up with this +

As for the main point – Yes, it is sad how many characters are used in inappropriate way. This particular commercial wasn’t so bad, but I am referring to those ideas to make digital Bruce Lee and make new movies, terminator to promote soda and pink Panther to sell mobile phones :(

Agreed, Kuri.

There is actually a lot to be said about Pepe and his stink. In some of the skits, he realizes he’s smelly but doesn’t do anything about it (narcissim), while in others he’s completely oblivious to it (denial or alternate reality) and continues, sometimes to the point where he endures abuse from the cat (masochism). Interestingly, whenever the cat decides to chase him at the end (for whatever reason), the roles get completely reversed, right down to how she will prance the way he had been while he runs fullspeed away- sort of a taste of his own medicine, but the skit ends too soon for us to see whether he actually learns and would take “no” for an answer next time.

Pepe Le Pew = sexual harasser. He didn’t understand that no means no.

It’s a metaphor for the post-racial society we live in now. There is no Skunk America and Cat America; there is only an Anthropomorphic Sexting America.

Seriously, looking back, wasn’t Pepe Le Pew’s amorous exploits a coded reference to miscegenation/interracial dating?
