I like him, but some of his cartoons I could do without.

Sometimes I like him, sometimes I don't. Depends on my mood. (and please, no bookworm!)

I really like Sniffles - not exactly Chuck Jones material as it would become known - but a few of the Sniffles cartoons I consider true Warner Brothers classics, like "The Egg Collector."

Thumbs up

Sniffles is my main homey! I'd get bored of the cute shtick, but the story lines pull me in - especially the one where he tries to stay up to see Santa Claus, or the one where he's running from the cat w/ his bookworm pal among all the toys. Even his last one is good! I think Jones is good even when others say he is bad. I LIKE many of his "Cute Disney-esque" cartoons. It's the Dover Boys that I don't care for !

I had to vote marginal. Sniffles will never be my favorite character, and Jones did better work with other characters. But I don't think Sniffles is as bad as some people say.

Sniffles toons are mediocre at best. But I voted yes.

I like Sniffles. The character and his cartoons have a cute feel to them, about a step up from Disney's Silly Symphonies series. The best Sniffles films are "Bedtime for Sniffles", "The Unbearable Bear", "Lost and Foundling", and "Hush My Mouse".

Sniffles added consistency to the set of short cartoons that he appeared in, many of which could've been drawn as one-shots. Yes, I like Sniffles.

Me? I'm marginal. I don't really care for his ultra-cute cartoons of the early Jones period but once Jones started getting jazzier with his cartoons (and that included Sniffles), there were some good ones like "Hush My Mouse"... and I'd LOVE to see "The Unbearable Bear".
