A classic example of the old saying, "Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it." I loved these old H&J cartoons when I was a kid.

[@mickey2866]

These magpies certainly learned a lesson from this experience.

I liked this toon! I like to see again.

[@richardranke7878]

This wasn't the only time I saw the story of how a careless wish that it would stop raining caused a drought and the one who'd made the wish tried to bring back rain. Anyone remember the Harveytoon,"Audrey and the Rainmaker"?

[@charlesmangum3108]

I remember it, but that was years ago.

[@kevins.butler3402]

I do..and it took a single drop of water to make"Little Audrey"fix the mess that her wish created.

[@miriambucholtz9315]

Yes, I do, and I was disappointed that it didn't show the melting city - until I found this one. I had forgotten about this one.

Very fitting for today's time!

Thank you SO much for posting! High quality video without some eyesore logo pasted over it. Much appreciated. PLEASE keep going with the Heckle and Jeckle series.

This short was kind of ahead of its time

[@RothmanHarv]

It's interesting how much of the opening scene was animated on threes.

What's crazy is magpies can fly I believe

[@ryancarter1080]

In the last few seconds there is also a United Kingdom flag with the American one, why? that doesn't make sense, this is in America

[@theorca5173]

Why didn't they just get another wishbone and wish for it to rain again? Also, being birds why did they have to build a helicopter to fly?

[@sonicfanboy3375]

Wishbones are rare

[@Wendy_O._Koopa]

@@sonicfanboy3375 No they aren't, every single chicken and turkey (and presumably every other bird) has them, and 99% of the time they're unbroken... when you buy them. Some people carve poultry like psychopaths, but all you typically have to do is get to it first.

[@LAPO5511]

In these cartoons of Terry Toons there are only animals and insects, but of human persons (Like Columbia Cartoon Screen Gems) beings ... only very few.

[@maxwestcomics]

Did anyone notice Heckle & Jeckle's picnic contains the remains of a chicken or turkey?

[@eubiecat]

Yes; gruesome irony duly noted.

[@laobok]

Real-life magpies prey on eggs of other birds.
