Sinkin In The Bathtub is the very first short in the
Looney Tunes series, released in
1930, starring
Bosko The Talk Ink Kid and made by
Hugh Harman And Rudolph Ising for Warner Bros. However, this was not the first appearance of Bosko — he first popped up in
this unreleased pilot
.
The plot,
if it can be called that, starts with Bosko taking a shower, approriately whistling to the tune of "Singing on the Bathtub". After some antics in the tub, along with the tub coming to life and ripping apart toilet paper, Bosko goes for a ride in his car to visit his sweetheart Honey. After a bit of serenading, they go off for a afternoon ride, and
Hilarity Ensues.
