Storyline

- TriviaThe censors must have been in a generous mood, as the suggestive silk hosiery and cavorting bathing beauty depictions would have been considered racy at the time. But as this cartoon was shown in cinemas (pre television), the adult audience would have found these bits amusing.
Featured review
cartoon of its era
Popeye and Olive are listening to various politicians busking for votes. She grows tired of same ole promises and wonders if she could be President. Popeye laughs at her and she hits him with a skillet. He gets knocked out and starts dreaming Olive laying out her platform. This seems to be progressive but somehow it comes off as sexist. It happens a lot during this era. They like to do a special episode with women as political leaders but they always look at the work from a housewife's point of view. It's a cartoon of its era.
