Enjoy the Chilly Willy page while you can; it's great, has a ton of episodes of the original cartoons, may even have them all. There's something about the site creator's disclaimer that makes me laugh, it's like a kid trying to forestall punishment by coming clean, but addressed to his stuffed animal.

It's one of my favorite cartoons of all time... the episodes were so cute, and Chilly Willy was a great combination of pluck and luck. Not sure cartoons like that could be made today; there's such a simplicity to them, no layers of hidden meanings or wink wink nudges for the knowing adults, and definitely no product placements.

Just well-animated cartoons with funny storylines. My favorite might be Baked Alaska.
