User reviews 2 Review. Top review. Chilly Willy's first cartoon is hardly a "chilly" effort. Chilly Willy's best cartoons were perfect examples of how a potentially one-joke character and concept could end up actually being a perfect mix of the cute and the funny with a lot of colour and good comic timing to go with it. There may be better Chilly Willy cartoons, like the Tex Avery-directed ones which were among the best he ever did, but for a first cartoon 'Chilly Willy' was pretty darn good and hardly a "chilly" effort.
The animation is not always as smooth as it could be in the drawing, which is likely down to budget reasons, and the timing is not quite as flawless as in Avery's efforts.
Every series has to start somewhere, but 'Chilly Willy' is among the better first cartoons for a cartoon character. Even if the animation in Avery's cartoons was more refined and imaginative, it is still bright and colourful with some beautiful backgrounds.
The music is full of lively bounce and character, with luscious orchestration. It not only adds to the action and visuals but enhances them too.
