Dois Diabinhos em Forma de Coelho

This cartoon from Arthur Davis features an effete overeducated dog. He appeared in several cartoons battling against the gophers. He's sort of a prototype for the bumbling super-genius Wile E. Coyote. His intellect is no match for the well-mannered and excessive violence of the gophers. A fast paced and slapstick heavy classic.

Mac and tosh beginnings (The Goofy gophers) Might just be their best and first cartoon, even though I like their Brown coats better. The gags and animation like so many of Art Davis's cartoons are fast, witty, and smart, and will entertain a wide variety of age ranges. The Backgrounds also don't get quite enough credit in this cartoon, They're simply stunning! I like the Goofy gophers more than I like chip N' dale, Mainly because of their more polite personalities and absolutely no conflict between them. They are Surely Underutilized Characters. The Dog in this cartoon (who would disappear after two more shorts with Mac and Tosh) is a funny character as well, not needing too much depth to be simply a rival of the Goofy Pair.

Great Cartoon, Could watch it every day If I wanted to.

10/10.

The Goofy Gophers was one of those cartoons that I remembered vividly as a child(especially the ending) but for a while had forgotten the title of. Coming across it by chance via Youtube(always good for re-discovering childhood favourites and new discoveries), I found myself falling in love with it. The Goofy Gophers is one of the most hilarious cartoons I have seen in a while. The dialogue is razor-sharp and witty and the gags- in laugh-a-minute mode- are imaginative and executed brilliantly. That is especially true of the "did you have your iron today?" and female gopher gags. The ending is also very entertaining for a brief but priceless cameo from Bugs Bunny. The fast pacing and fun story, detailing of the intellectual dog even when very crafty not being a match for the polite but somewhat dangerous gophers, further compliment the humour, while the slapstick and violence also add to the fun without being too cartoony or sadistic. The animation is great, with some luscious colours and backgrounds and everything is very fluid and detailed. Carl Stalling has been consistently wonderful with his music, it is always dynamic and beautiful to listen to while also enhancing the action and colour(which is what music in cartoons should do) and his scoring for The Goofy Gophers is not a disappointment whatsoever. The dog and gophers work wonders together, and voiced with aplomb by one of the gods of voice-acting Mel Blanc. All in all, a hilarious and very well-made cartoon and one I recommend with no hesitation. 10/10 Bethany Cox
