10:00-11:00 Jerry Beck`s Worst Cartoons Ever - If Ed Wood were an animator, these are the cartoons he would have made. Animation historian Jerry Beck presents an all-new selection of some of the worst animated films ever made. This hilarious program showcases the terrible stories, awful artwork, crappy dialogue, and horrible animation of television cartoons from the 1950s and 60s. Past favorites such as Super President (a one-man weapon of mass destruction), Mighty Mr. Titan (a physical fitness propaganda cartoon show), Johnny Cypher in Dimension Zero (a space cadet with far-out adventures), and Clutch Cargo (he with the live-action lips) will be joined this year by Rocket Robin Hood (and his band of "Merry Men"), Bucky & Pepito (hands down, the worst cartoon series ever made), Rankin-Bass`s King Kong (move over Peter Jackson!), and many others.
