Trivia
- Max Fleischer changed the name of the Ko-Ko Song Car-Tunes series to Screen Songs. He decided to work with his brother, Dave on a new series of cartoons where the characters did more than dance to the music of the "bouncing ball".
- When the idea for the Talkartoons series was pitched to Paramount, they leaped at the opportunity.
- By 1931 Betty Boop had dominated the Talkartoons series, and Koko the Clown was brought out of retirement and paired up with Betty Boop and Bimbo.
- The best contribution to the series was the creation of Betty Boop in the 1930 Talkartoon titled Dizzy Dishes.
