Fun With Shorts: Arranging The Tea Table

I think this was a tough one for you. There's so much leaden social history going on. I think the only people I know who would do all this are from one or two generations back from me, and that's a long time ago. I know of only a couple who are living. So I can understand why you wouldn't want to speak up every time the short stopped talking. It was still a lot of fun, even for the original short. :)

Thanks for the feedback, Bill. I've been intentionally experimental in the last couple of seasons, trying different kinds of shorts with admittedly varying results. I still have one very bizarre holiday surprise up my sleeve, but I'm already stacking next season with more of the Coronet school films and John Sutherland animations that seem to work better. Thanks for sticking with me!

I've seen this one before, unriffed. As I watched it, I couldn't help but wonder why giving a tea had to be such an ordeal. Josh, you did a great job with this. Very funny.

FWIW, I like these social films much better than animated ones. It's just my personal preference.
