Nu, Pogodi!
Nu, Pogodi! (English: Well, Just You Wait!) is a Russian children’s cartoon that aired from 1969 to 2006. The cartoon follows the misadventures of a wolf trying to catch a rabbit. However, the wolf is never successful in his quest, either by being outwitted by the rabbit or due to outside interference. It was influenced by several western cartoons, particularly Tom and Jerry and the Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote segments from Looney Tunes. The show was made mainly to provide simple entertainment for people to sit down with their family and watch together, and serves as an example of escapism within media. |
