Fun, but enough with the Mother-in-law jokes!

obviously a product of "back then", but still pretty neat

The Deliberate Pacing Makes It Seem Slower For An Avery Cartoon

A narrator takes us on a tour of the dream house of the future, and its many innovative appliances.

The House of Tomorrow

Here&apos;s one of Tex Avery&apos;s cartoons on a theme, to wit: the latest and proposed advanced in the details and technology for living at home.

The gags are as good as Avery&apos;s usual, and the pacing likewise. It is, however, the narration which sets the pace, and makes them seem more deliberate that slows it down. I am certain there are as many gags as usual, the artwork is up to standard -- it would shortly begin to go downhill under the pressure of shrinking budgets -- but the narration, while perhaps necessary, makes them seem less spontaneous than usual.

Which makes this merely a fine, funny cartoon.
