Dagwood trys to be a good neighbor.
This is the 18th film in the "Blondie" film series. The film begins with a new intro (but same "funny face, funny face" tune), giving up the usual postman and the airmail intro. Now it's a lovely round art-deco with the names of the cast. Once again, Dagwood's (Arthur Lake) alarm clock didn't go off so he thinks he is late for work. But Blondie (Penny Singleton) reminds him it's Sunday. Alexander (Larry Simms) and Cookie (Marjorie Kent) are ready for breakfast and Cookie has naturally lost a tooth. Danny Mummert is back as "Alvin". He drops by to tell the Bumsteads they have a new neighbor who is a "sourpuss". As part of the Good Neighbor Policy, Dagwood runs over to meet the new neighbor Mr. Conroy (Arthur Loft). Unfortunatly, Dagwood trying to be helpful ends up backing Mr. Conroy's automobile into the garage. He now owes Mr. Conroy $500. Alvin tells Dagwood Mr. Conroy is a lawyer. Next thing they know, Conroy has issued a summons on Dagwood to appear in Superior Court.
Shemp Howard (The Three Stooges) makes an interesting appearance as a process server.
This is the final appearance of Jonathan Hale as "J.C. Dithers". Jerome Cowan, who plays "Charles Peabody" in this film becomes a regular in the next films.
Trivia Note: Larry Simms and Danny Mummert both were in "It's A Wonderful Life" (1946) although not in a scene together.
The next film in the series: BLONDIE'S BIG MOMENT (1947).
