    Katzenjammers in fine form

    The old MGM "Captain and the Kids" cartoons are hard to come by today but they do pop up from time to time on Cartoon Network's "Late Night Black and White". "Buried Treasure" has a likable, bouncy silliness as Hans and Fritz lead Der Captain on a wild goose chase filled with fun gags and a few head-scratchers. Although this series was not successful in it's day, some individual episodes are a hoot. And for the record - Mel Blanc supplied the voice of Long John Silver.

    The Treasure Map

    Hans, Fritz, Der Kaptain, and Long John Silver discover a treasure map and pursue the loot in this episode of MGM's cartoon series.

    Of course, the Kids are soon onto the competition and decide the greater glory lies in tormenting Der Kaptain. Although the modern audience, long grow used to cartoons being in color (at least), will find that the technical aspects of this black-and-white cartoon are well handled, and the gags are moderately amusing.
