This style of animation is just dead in this era. It's a shame, this is so alive. Every character, action, and prop is full of life!

Yeah, everything has to be done as a puppet, and hand drawn frame by frame animation is kinda dead. Personally I miss it, but dealing with outsourcing and other studios drawing on model is a nightmare. So when you do cookie cutter for kids mainstream animation, this type of stuff is dead unfortunately.

I find it so interesting how clear it is that this is was the prototype of Courage. It has so many of the things that would become staples of that show; the toothy, tired looking dog, the kind, if a bit oblivious lady that owns him, and the douchey bald guy that bullies the dog. Not to mention all of the exaggerated expressions n stuff. This is a great cartoon all in all!

Id actually pay to see a full series of these. The animation is awesome, reminds me of ren and stimpy/Hey Arnold

i love how chaotic the style is and how mean the characters are. wonderfully aggressive

This is everything I've always loved about cartoons, ever since I was a child in the 90's. Bakshi and Kricfalusi get a lot of attention for the Weird Revolution in animation of the time, but Dilworth is my unsung hero.

I absolutely LOVE Raisin. She has just... such a quirky design about her. A huggable face.

I'm sorry but the bit of the 80 cents to the dollar bit had me wheezing in laughter. Thank you to all who created this, especially you Dilworth.

1:56 I watched this scene at least a hundred times and I always laughed just as hard as the first "you're gonna give Hamilton low self-esteem if you continue to... *ABUSE HIM!!!"*

Hi, Mr. Dilworth. Thanks for making my childhood awesome.

This is so 90s

This really does scream 90s

It’s like if Chuck Jones tried collaborating with Rob Zombie. This style is just so charming and full of personality!

I always come back to this cartoon whenever I'm glum (or drunk) and it instantly makes me feel better. So many great poses and facial expressions.

It's nice to see some of Mr. Dilworth's early work before he did courage the cowardly dog, which is one of my favorite cartoon shows as a kid 😊

Mr. Dilworth is responsible for one of my favorite childhood programs. Keep up with your great talent and imagination

The origin of my username. I remember seeing this on Liquid Television (my dad had a bunch of bootleg recordings). Always cool to see a more unrestrained Dilworth (and a sorta early version of Courage).

Hamilton is prototype Courage.

I love watching these old shorts by animators, just how bizarre and messed up they are. And then finding out the same people who made these made children's cartoons. Like Regular Show coming from 2 guys tripping on acid in a gas station. Also, those fucking teeth creep me out John.

An earlier version of Eustace, Muriel and Courage (More crude)

Everything about this is genius, even the title (I mean, what on Earth is so smart about Raisin, her antagonistic brother and a picked on dog?). Beam.me.up! Hehehehe. Genius. ❤❤❤

This is genius John R Dilworth is a genius.

My friend rescued a dog with serious separation anxiety. We think he was abandoned at some point. He's fine as long as he has a human with him. He is an awesome dog, pretty quiet. He just sits there, much like Hamilton. I used to watch liquid television in my twenties, so my mind went right to this cartoon. I shared it with my friend, he thinks it's pretty damn funny. His boyfriend does not. Hamilton really is a dead ringer for Manny.

Every character is ugly as hell and I don't even know what just happened. It's great.

i would do anything for episodes of this to be made ahaha ive watched it countless times.

I can't help but notice how some of Raisin's and Malcolm's character traits carried over to Eustace and Muriel respectively in the Courage the Cowardly Dog show; Specifically how Malcolm (Eustace) verbally abuses Hamilton (Courage) incessantly and how Raisin (Muriel) seems generally staid and stands up for Hamilton in the face of Malcolm. Hell, even Malcolm almost gets his comeuppance similar to how Eustace frequently bit it at the end of episodes.
