Line 6:
Compare [[MGM]]'s own cartoon bear [[Barney Bear]], which ran around the same time (and co-incidentally debuted in the same year).
A history of the series can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20120813034446/http://lantz.goldenagecartoons.com/profiles/andy/ here.]

== 1939 ==
Line 31:
== 1942 ==
* Under the Spreading Blacksmith Shop: The last appearance of Poppa Panda. (Lovy)
* Good-Bye Mr. Moth: Andy's first solo short. (Lantz)
* Nutty Pine Cabin: Andy's first appearance as an adult. (Lovy)
Line 77:
* [[Animation Bump]]: The Dick Lundy shorts.
* [[Art Evolution]]: The early shorts were pretty crudely drawn, looking more like ragdolls than animals. Things improved when [[Shamus Culhane]] brought a little more form to the designs (although most agree that his redesign in "The Painter and the Pointer" was a step in the wrong direction), and Dick Lundy refined the animation considerably by the end of the series.
* [[Beary Cute]]: Andy, of course.
* [[Bratty Half-Pint]]: In his early appearances.
* [[Breakout Character]]: [[Woody Woodpecker]] got his first starring role in Andy's fifth cartoon.
Line 84 ⟶ 85:
* [[Captain Ersatz]]: Andy's everyman incarnation is pretty much Lantz's answer to [[Mickey Mouse]]. His one-time appearing girlfriend, Miranda Panda, is also a shameless ersatz of [[Minnie Mouse]].
** Andy's dog in "The Painter and the Pointer" is really just [[Pluto the Pup|Pluto]] moonlighting in a Lantz cartoon.
* [[Chuck Cunningham Syndrome]]: Andy's dad
* [[Darkest Africa]]: Where the first three shorts are apparently set.
* [[Distaff Counterpart]]: The onetime appearance of Miranda Panda, an unmistakable ersatz of [[Minnie Mouse]].
Line 93 ⟶ 94:
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: Poppa Panda's voice characterization in "Andy Panda's Pop" is abruptly changed from previous shorts to be a W.C. Fields impersonation.
* [[Out of Focus]]: As Woody Woodpecker got more popular, Andy got considerably less showtime than before.
* [[Pain
* [[Pandaing to the Audience]]
* [[Poorly-Disguised Pilot]]: ''Knock Knock'' for the [[Woody Woodpecker]] series.
* [[Ridiculously Cute Critter]]: In his infant appearances.
* [[Roger Rabbit Effect]]: The ending of "100 Pygmies and Andy Panda", where
* [[Smelly Skunk]]: Featured in "Scrappy Birthday".
* [[Tertiary Sexual Characteristics]]: Miranda Panda is pretty much just Andy's design with a bow, skirt and high heels.
