The Up-Standing Sitter is a very good cartoon, but not quite one of the greats. The story is simple, perhaps a little too much so, but a number of things compensate such as the witty writing that is full of inspired puns and references and clever sight gags. Daffy still has his trademark persona but also has a caring side that I loved seeing. The chick, who is very like Tweety I agree, is very cute though thankfully not sickeningly so. Mel Blanc's vocal characterisations are as stellar as ever. The animation has been more fluid in other Looney Tunes shorts, but is bright and colourful on the whole, and the jaunty background music plays a vital part in making the humour work as always and succeeds. The song is very catchy also. All in all, not one of my favourites, but I like it very much. 8/10 Bethany Cox
