You Must Know How to Swim

I Wanna Be a Life Guard (1936)

*** (out of 4)

Popeye and Bluto walk past a pool and notice Olive Oyl swimming so they then take notice of the sign saying the place is hiring a lifeguard. Soon the two men are put to work to see which one deserves the job.

Once again we're treated to a rather catchy and fun song that takes the title and adds a few good laughs. This is another extremely well-drawn episode that features great detail in regards to the animation. The real fun happens once we get to the pool where Popeye and Bluto pretty much battle at every turn. There are some creative site gags including one with Olive Oyl diving into the pool and landing like a rock. Fans of the series will enjoy this one.
