  Hell on Frisco Bay: Friz Freleng-For-All
Welcome to the Friz Freleng Blog-A-Thon, in celebration of the late animation master's 100th (or is it 101st, or 102nd?) birthday.
What Freleng would do in his most effective cartoons was something else: he'd create a gag that, if not realistic, would at least be performed by his characters as it would be if they were vaudeville actors.
Freleng appreciators in the Frisco Bay area will want to know that the Balboa Theatre will be holding a tribute to the director sometime this Fall, including a screening of Ford's 1994 documentary Freleng Frame-By-Frame.

 A Mancini Anthology - The Pink Panther and the Return of the Pink Panther Liner Notes
The cartoon was created by Fritz Freleng who had started out in Disney in the 1920s but made his mark on animation history with the Merry Melodies unit of Warner Bros. There he created the characters Speedy Gonzalez and Yosemite Sam, the later of which was said to be a self-caricature.
After Merry Melodies dissolved in 1963, Director Blake Edwards approached Fritz and asked him to design a cartoon cat to introduce his new film.
Freleng himself directed the initial and definitive Pink Panther cartoons before delegating the duties to his long-time layout man from Warner Brothers, Hawley Pratt.

 Something Old, Nothing New: 1946 Article on Friz Freleng
Probably the best special feature on the fourth Looney Tunes Golden Collection is a new documentary on Friz Freleng, which includes lots of archival interview footage of Freleng (as well as one of his top animators, Virgil Ross).
One of a half-dozen cartoonists who left Kansas City in the early '20s to become animators and producers of pen and ink motion pictures, Isadore (Fritz [sic]) Freleng, returned to his “home town” this week for a visit.
It was here that Freleng became acquainted with Walt Disney, creator of Mickey Mouse; U.B. Iwerks, creator of “Flip the Frog”; Fred Harmon, originator of the “Red Ryder” strip; Hugh Harmon, his brother, who, with Rudy Ising, another United man, later made the “Harmon-Ising” musical cartoons.

 The Katzenjammer Kids
The Katzenjammer Kids first appeared in the Sunday comic pages in December 1897, which means that Hans and Fritz are now engaged in their second century of antics in the funny pages.
The main characters in the comic strip were Mamma Katzenjammer, her twin sons, Hans and Fritz, and the long-suffering target of their mischief, The Captain.
But, wherever they were, the continuing and repeated theme centered around the ability of Hans and Fritz to pull creative pranks, get into trouble as a result, and end up being hunted down or spanked over someone's knee in the last panel.

 Friz   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
The surname Friz derives from Fritz, diminutive of the German name Friederich (Frederick), which is originary from the Old Germanic Frithurik, composed by frithu ("peace", "friendship": Friede, in German) and rikia ("lord", "prince"), meaning "Lord of Peace", "The One who assures peace".
The surname is diffused on the Valle dell'Adige (Adige Valley, Province of Trento, northern Italy).

 Letter to America
The subject of "Fritz the Cat" came up, and I believe Jett said, or intimated that Friz Freleng had something to do with Fritz the Cat...this would be incorrect.
Freleng directed many of the old Bugs Bunny and Pink Panther cartoons.
Robert Crumb was the creator of Fritz, and I believe Harvey Pekar did some of the first illustrations of Fritz if I'm not mistaken.
