Frederator Studios, the people behind “Fairly Odd Parents” and other various NickToons titles has just launched a podcast service which will bring classic public domain cartoons to the public under the “ReFrederator” label. The starting lineup is pretty impressive, and I’m looking forward to seeing just how obscure they get. Hopefully the audience is there for this service. Today’s podcast - classic Mighty Mouse!

New episodes will appear daily Monday through Friday, with each week offering a unique theme. Mother Goose will dominate the first week as Refrederator offers up a 1935 Humpty Dumpty cartoon from Ub Iwerks, followed by Mighty Mouse in Wolf! Wolf from 1945 and the Oscar-nominated Pigs in a Polka from director Friz Freling. The week will conclude with Poor Cinderella, the only color Betty Boop cartoon, and Foney Fables, a series of short Disney parodies. Programming for ReFrederator is headed by producer Eric Homan and illustrator/cartoonist scholar Dave Kirwan. Consultants include noted animation historian Jerry Beck and writer Melissa Wolfe.
