"Dogday Hellody of 1933" is an episode of The Itchy & Scratchy Show.

History[edit]

After Santa's Little Helper killed Raymond Bird, Bart watched the cartoon with him.

Plot[edit]

A dog is on trial for crimes against animals. The jury, made up of Scratchys, decides not to bother deliberating and the dog is declared guilty. Then, various famous Hollywood actors of the 1930s then show up to maim the dog in various ways, to the jury's amusement; Edward G. Robinson shoots the dog with a tommy gun, Will Rogers hangs the dog with a lasso, W. C. Fields drinks the dog's blood, Harpo Marx cuts out the dog's tongue, and Bing Crosby clobbers the dog with a baseball bat.

Behind the Laughter[edit]

The plot of the cartoon resembles that of the 1935 Disney short "Pluto's Judgement Day", where their character Pluto the dog is tried by a courtroom full of cats in Hell (in this case, Itchy as the judge and several Scratchys as the jury) for cruelty to animals.
