Dizzy Dishes is an animated cartoon created by Fleischer Studios in 1930, as part of the Talkartoon series.[2] It is noted for being the first cartoon in which Betty Boop appears.[3] Under current United States copyright law, the short will enter into the public domain in 2026.[4]
The cartoon begins with four anthropomorphic flapper cats singing "Crazy Town". Chef Bimbo waits on a hungry gorilla and then goes to the kitchen to prepare the order, roast duck. When he is about to bring it to the gorilla's table, he sees Betty Boop performing on stage and falls in love at first sight. He forgets about the hungry gorilla and dances on stage with the duck. The gorilla, furious, goes after Bimbo, who escapes on a wooden train.
