La Maison de la Panthère rose

The pointy nose man is building a generic-looking house, while the Pink Panther wants him to build a huge, modern and slick-style house mansion. He attempts to exchange his blueprint with the man's, but his plan doesn't work. Therefore, the panther secretly uses the man's materials to build the house according to his plans.

It's a pretty slick and funny cartoon, with a good helping of slapstick humor and gags, including the part where a bed of nails lands on the man. There's a lot of back and forth of building, and tearing down and rebuilding. But, it has a good pace to it and serves us quite a bit of laughs.

Grade B+

I do like most of the Pink Panther cartoons a good deal. And I do like The Pink Blueprint, though it is not the Pink Panther at his best. The story is not much new and is rather predictable at times, and I agree that the laughter track is both annoying and unnecessary. Despite these, The Pink Blueprint does have some very funny gags, there's a lot of them and a lot of outsmarting and it all works. The ending especially is great. They do help let the cartoon go at a good pace despite a story that could have easily make it do otherwise. The animation style is simple but clean and carefully and beautifully coloured. Both Pinky and the construction worker are well drawn too. The music is fittingly orchestrated and matches the gags and action very nicely, it is also catchy. The theme tune is still infectious even for a theme tune that is as iconic and oft-heard as it is, there are theme tunes around that are so good that they can't get annoying and that is the case with that for the Pink Panther. Pinky is cool and funny, and the construction worker works well with him without outshining him.

Overall, an entertaining Pink Panther cartoon but not one of the best or among my favourites from him. 8/10 Bethany Cox

In this Oscar-nominated cartoon, The Pink Panther turns up a the building site of his new house and replaces the boring blueprint of the ordinary house with an exciting pinkprint of a much fancier one. The single teamster working on the house is having none of it and sticks to making the boring house.

The typical game of outsmarting and tricky follows but the gags and visual jokes that defy the laws of physics are all very imaginative and well done. For a six minute cartoon there are loads of laughs crammed into such a short running time. And the twist at the end is the funniest of them all!

This cartoon was nominated for a Academy Award. It's a fairly good cartoon, although it is quite similar to The Pink Phink in conception, tone and execution. Not really a terribly novel cartoon by any means, but great fun and very entertaining. Recommended.

This cartoon story turns into a competition to see how can build a better house: the Pink Panther or his rival, The Little White Man. At first, they have the same project site but each doesn't like the other guy's designs. The Man has blueprints for a standard house while the PP's plans call for some futuristic design.

Most of the story involves the PP playing havoc with the White Man's attempts to build the house. The Panther also gets effective assistance from a runaway buzz saw.

This was "okay," nothing super, and, sad to say, marred by the always-insult laugh track, something totally uncalled-for in a cartoon. We can decide when to laugh, thank you. I wound up playing most of this with the sound off, so as not be annoyed. However, I missed hearing the sound-effects.
