Farm Frolics

Farm Frolics is a 1941 Merrie Melodies cartoon directed by Bob Clampett.
==Summary==
A series of spot gags about farm life. Running gag: why are all the little piggies watching the clock so intently?
==Plot==
An artist's hand draws a farm which comes to life with a variety of barnyard animals as references to visual puns and running gags to follow. An off-screen narrator shows the animals found on the typical American farm. Each animal surprises us with its own special gag. A championship racehorse demonstrates a gallop, then, to show off a canter, does an Eddie Cantor imitation. A running gag has several piglets constantly watching an alarm clock, which goes off at the end, sending the piglets scrambling to Mother Hog, who sighs, "Oh, dear, every day it's the same thing."
==Trivia==
The horse parodies Eddie Cantor, and the birds' house is FHA approved.
There are also comical references to Dick Tracy and Zasu Pitts.
