Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for October 11, 2009

If those are apple trees, it’s a drive-by fruiting!

ejcapulet, good one!

What were they thinking?

But they turned it into a success. They now have branches everywhere.

I’m glad it’s trees. It could have been so much worse.

Ted and Dan’s TYNO Co did not last long.

Poorly conceived, starting with the name.

And back in Cleveland, or should I say Hollywood, we have a new animation from Nighthawks. And it is excellent!

This is very closely copied by the humans in their own version. The shots, the cuts are very similar.

Great job, Nighthawks!

I’m pretty sure Hitchdog directed Psycho Basset, although I don’t recall Claude being mentioned in the credits. Glad this was filmed before they could consider showing all of him.

Cleo getting self-referential tonight.

They’ve got a million of them! And they’re all poorly conceived.

There’s no doubt the shower scene is the most memorable scene I’ve seen.

Hi everybody…. I’m really late….

In case you’re new here…. we come every day to the 10 years old Ballard Street forum to comment on

“CLEO and COMPANY” …. today, the Oct 11th  2019 strip

on Sherpa

I can’t tell you too much about the strip…. I’ve watched it 5 times but I had my hands over my eyes.

I did see Claude in his shower cap… I think when you only have two strands left, you must get very protective of them.

I mean… what if they fell out, or got damaged?

Then he’d be bald.

As for the rolled up newspaper…

that’s what some dogs think is punishment.

But I can’t imagine that Cleo’s ever been hit with one…

I don’t want to say anything about Clara and Claude’s dog-parenting…. cough….

but Cleo’s been watching waaay too many doggie horror movies on the Basset Channel.

Claude should be glad he was spanked on the head with that newspaper and not on his, uh, never mind.

Meanwhile… Ted and Dan thought they could be part of a growing movement….

helping people find their roots.

But they should have waited till those would-be customers expressed a desire to dig for them.

Lovin’it. October is getting to be my favorite time of the year.

Here I am, enjoying my coffee and find Nighthawks and Stel have treated us to a lovely animation. As it unfolds, I see all the details that seem to be normal for October. Then the horrible scene unfolds and I see a naked Claude taking a shower! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeek! I’m running behind the couch!

Have a great upcoming weekend Balladeers snd Miss Susan.
