I'm Cold is a 1954 Chilly Willy cartoon directed by Tex Avery[2] and produced by Walter Lantz. It was the first Chilly Willy cartoon directed by Avery.[3] Chilly Willy also got a major redesign by Avery.[4] This cartoon features the debut of Smedley Dog (voiced by Daws Butler in his "Huckleberry Hound" voice), who would appear in later Chilly Willy Shorts.[5]

Summary

[edit]

Chilly is freezing at his igloo home and burns everything (one log and pages of a book) in his fireplace until he pulls off an ad for a fur factory guarded by Smedley and realizes that warmth is only a visit away.[6][7]
