With the bad reputation of being a copy of South Park, this Eastern adaptation of the American series is nothing more than a children's show plagued by bad acting, incomprehensible plots, poor developments, and poorly executed episodes that lack meaning.
It's also funny how they adapted South Park to Arab culture, and there are some memorable scenes, especially that musical that has gone viral for a few years now.
There is nothing left but to appreciate and analyze this strange piece of animation due to its quite interesting content if you search about its origin, from what I read, South Park was banned in the 90s in several eastern countries so a Kuwait studio took advantage to adapt it to its culture and to the child audience, other than that this show is quite poor.

After leaving Warner Bros, Avery got a job at MGM again directing Short Films, after several Characters like Screwy Squirrel and George and Junior, Avery learned what it takes to be funny after Dumb Hounded in 1943, where with a very simple plot she managed to entertain and funny, but the focus was not obtained by the Wolf who was the protagonist of that short, but by the Hound that appeared there, previously called Happy Hound.
Happy Hound (later renamed as Droopy) continued to appear in supporting roles until gaining the recognition he deserved in The Shot of Dan Mcgoo in 1945, so he got his own series of short films, where he was paired with many iconic MGM characters, Like the Wolf and the Little Red Riding Hood.
And after following a path full of success, Droopy reached its highest point with Wags to Riches, in the last year of the 40s, "we must close this decade well" Avery thought when creating this masterpiece, which I consider it one of his most important works and one of the best he directed.
Here he is paired with Butch (here called Spike) a Bulldog similar to Spike but with a Greedy and Treacherous Personality, who upon learning that his late owner left his entire fortune to his Housemate Droopy, is filled with anger and envy , and after reading a text that says "in the case of the death of the Droopy dog, all the money falls into Spike's possession" he takes the Initiative trying to assassinate him but failing in all his poor and miserable attempts.
The animation was glorious, MGM at its Highest Moments, attractive and well colored backgrounds, there is a great use of Smear Frames, which cause a more attractive and moderately fluid Animation, as well as exaggerated expressions, which fit the humor well.
The Music was good at best, once again praising Bradley I can just say it was well placed and a delight to the ears.
It really was a good short, it has a simple plot but it was charmingly done, it has relentless animation and a Humor on par with Looney Tunes or Tom and Jerry, I think it's one of Droopy's best and it will still hold that position.
For all the above, this short gets a more than deserved 6, it's a joke, it's actually called a deserved 10! Congratulations to Avery and his team for this wonderful job.
