The BEARY FAMILY
THE 1962-1972 WALTER LANTZ 25 EPISODES CARTOON SET
The
characters were introduced in 1962's Fowled-Up Birthday (directed
by Jack Hannah) and the series lasted until the Lantz studio closed its
doors. They were one of the only three cartoon series that Lantz made from
1966 to 1972 (the other two series were those of Woody and Chilly).
The cartoon series was loosely based on
typical television sitcoms of the day. The early Beary shorts even began
with an announcer saying "It's the Bearys!" The head of the
Beary household was the bumbling and stubborn father, Charlie Beary, whose
attempts to fix or build something to save a few dollars would always end
in disaster. Charlie's wife, Bessie, was originally an attractive sitcom
mother-type character. She was later redesigned into a stereotypical
nagging housewife. Charlie and Bessie had two children: a dimwitted
teenage son named Junior and a young daughter named Suzy. The family pet
was a bow-tie wearing goose named Goose. The plots of some of the funniest
Beary shorts focused on the rivalry between Charlie and Goose.
Of course, Charlie never could seem to do
anything right. He would end up destroying the house and causing loads of
damage in his attempt to install an air condition or an automatic garage
door opener or wash his own windows. Charlie couldn't even manage to get a
fish tank home from the pet store in one piece. Despite his good
intentions, Charlie rarely ever got a happy ending. About 99% of Beary
cartoons end with a poor, frustrated Charlie looking into the camera
crying or with Bessie socking him in the stomach a few times.
