Topic: The CAT (series)


  
  Cat (Red Dwarf) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cat is a character in the British comedy television series Red Dwarf.
In early episodes, The Cat exhibits typical feline behaviours such as licking anyone who gives him food, playing with 'shiny things' and marking his territory, for which purpose he carries a small spray-can, of which the contents are unknown, in his pocket.
The Cat is an anthropomorphised caricature of a cat, and thus recalls the cats of T.

 Lore of the Cat ~ Pawprints and Purrs, Inc.
Although in the East cats still play a part in religious ritual, it is unlikely that anyone in the West worships cats, in a conscious and literal sense, these days.
Nevertheless, fl cats are still said to be lucky (or unlucky as the case may be); and many people betray signs of the cult of the cat, making these animals the center of their lives, and treating them with a respect or dread that would seem appropriate only in relation to a supernatural being.
The cats brought fertility to the fields of suppliant farmers, cats protected the living and the dead from evil, and cats brought healing and happiness into people's lives.

 Felix the Cat
His squat, fl body and huge, white eyes and grin are instantly recognizable worldwide, due largely to the fact that this anthropomorphic cat was the first true movie cartoon star.
Felix has been said to represent a child's sense of wonder, creating the fantastic when it isn't there, and taking it in stride when it is. The cat's famous walk, hands behind his back, head down, deep in thought, became a trademark that was analyzed and re-analyzed by critics around the world.
Oriolo went on to star the cat in 260 television cartoons from 1959 and 1960.

Cats, after all, are decorative and diverting, and they are at their finest in cameo appearances.
Her book The Cat Who Could Read Backwards (1966) launched a series in which cats have eaten Danish, seen red, played Brahms, known Shakespeare, sniffed glue, gone underground, talked to ghosts, lived high, known a cardinal (no, not the kind with wings), moved a mountain, blown the whistle, said cheese and seen stars.
Most of today's cat mysteries are what I think of as "clawzies," a variation on cozies in which the cat or its person is an amateur sleuth, and the action takes place in a domestic or small-town setting.

 Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Felix the Cat
Felix the Cat was animation's first superstar, far eclipsing Farmer Alfalfa, Bobby Bumps, Col.
It was this series that introduced Felix's now-famous "bag of tricks" — as well as the dastardly Professor, who coveted it.
Meanwhile, Messmer's comics — first in the form of a newspaper strip distributed by King Features Syndicate and later, in 1943, as a regularly-published comic book — displayed his visual imagination and solid design sense to great effect, which is why the Messmer-drawn issues are highly prized by modern collectors.

 Ronald Frobnitz and Family - Cat Who... FAQ
A: Braun's latest is The Cat Who Brought down the House, released in the States on February 3rd; it wealthy and eccentric Hollywood restauranteur Thelma Thackeray's return to her native Moose County and ties in with the "Milo the Potato Farmer" yarn from Short and Tall Tales.
Braun had had The Cat Who Saw Red written in the late 60's, but, by then, the climate at her publisher and in the mystery market in general had changed, putting heavy emphasis on sex and violence, and Braun's books were no longer welcome.
A: Braun has stated that she does not want to strike a movie or TV deal while the series is still ongoing, since having to keep the special concerns of screenplay adaptations in the back of her mind while writing the novels upon which they will be eventually based might unduly influence her work.

 Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Tigra
The first was in The Cat #1, published by Marvel Comics with a cover date of November, 1972.
But they were starting to get the idea that superheroes were on the way out (and the failure of her comic probably reinforced it), so the next time Greer was seen, she was revamped into something resembling a monster.
She abandoned the power suit (which eventually fell into the hands of former teen star Patsy Walker, who used it to become Hellcat) in favor of a bikini to show off her tiger-striped skin, and (in case that didn't make her monster-like enough) ringed the bottom of the bikini with teeth.

 Felix, The Cat
You might say that this cat has used up quite a few (but not all) of his "nine lives" over the past more than nine decades...and his origin is surprisingly controversial, even now...The catty little tale is as follows: Young Australian cartoonist Pat Sullivan wasn't able to establish a career as a cartoonist in Sydney.
Otto Messmer was given directing duties for "Feline Follies." And the star cat character that was to evolve into the famous "Felix The Cat" was named Felix (for "felicity" -- for luck) by Paramount Pictures producer John King.
During the early days of TV, the early series of Paramount "Felix" cartoons created in the 1920s were sometimes seen on various local cartoon shows in packages re-released at periodic intervals.

Felix was also technically the world's first television star, when, in 1928, a toy statue of the cat was chosen as the image to test RCA's experimental 60-line television transmitter.
But cats do indeed have nine lives, and it was not long before Felix adapted to the world of sound in a series of cartoons produced in Technicolor by Van Buren studios in 1936, and a 1958 series produced by Casper the Friendly Ghost creator Joe Oriolo.
In these syndicated serials, Felix was equipped with a magical bag of tricks that could give even Mary Poppins' carpet bag a run for its money.

Upon arriving in Hollywood, Disney found a willing distributor in Margaret Winkler who was already the distributor of the "Felix the Cat" series.
And the contract had been contingent on their new star, Virginia Davis, appearing in the series.
He was missing in the next short, as Disney never intended for him to be a regular character, but at Margaret Winkler's suggestion, another cat was added in "Alice's Fishy Story." Eventually, this cat was to metamorphize into Julius, the cat who was to be Alice's companion throughout the series.
