TheLittleSongbird Was very fond of Woody Woodpecker and his cartoons as a child. Still get much enjoyment out of them now as a young adult, even if there are more interesting in personality cartoon characters and better overall cartoons.That is in no way knocking Woody, because many of his cartoons are a lot of fun to watch and more and also still like him a lot as a character. Of the cartoons from his scene-stealing supporting appearance in the Andy Panda cartoon 'Knock Knock' to this, 'Woody Woodpecker', 'Ace in the Hole' and 'The Loan Stranger' are the best. 'The Screwball' is great fun though, with plenty of manic energy.While there may be cartoon characters with slightly more interesting personalities, Woody is still at his best incredibly funny, never obnoxious and very lovable self, summing him up in one word it would be wonderfully nuts. His personality traits are still evolving and while a few are different others are unmistakably recognisable. Supporting characters work with him well, if not quite as memorable.As ever, the animation is great. Woody's character design and physicality have changed/evolved for the better. Even more impressive are the rich and vibrant colours, the meticulously detailed backgrounds and the quite smooth drawing.Another standout quality is the music. It's characterful, lushly orchestrated and is not only dynamic with the action it even enhances it. The writing is suitably witty and raises a number of chuckles. the gags are razor-sharp in timing and often hilarious, especially indeed the one with the soda.Voice acting is very good as to be expected. 9/10 Bethany Cox

Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) The game of baseball would not be the same, thanks to that lovable red-headed nut - Woody Woodpecker in one of my favorite shorts with the early version of Woody. In this short, two baseball teams the Droops and the Drips were playing on the diamond. Woody wants to see the game, but a police officer threw him out for being a gate-crasher. He figures out a way to get in and things are going to get a little crazy in the ballpark.I love the part when Woody shook a soda bottle and hands it the police officer: "Have some Pop, Cop?" and...*SSSSSSLUSH* the officer gets sprayed. Woody remarks: "No stopper, Copper." Then does the famous "Woody-laugh." Well anyway, I like this cartoon, and I give it a 9 out of 10 for one funny scene.
