'''''Nu, Pogodi!''''' (''Ну, погоди!'', in English ''Well, Just You Wait!'') is a [[Eastern European Animation|Soviet (and now Russian) children's cartoon]] reminiscent of ''[[Tom and Jerry (Animation)|Tom and Jerry]]''. (The creators of the show claim that they've never seen ''Tom and Jerry'', although they ''did'' admit to being inspired by post-[[World War II]] [[Walt Disney]] films). The first film was released in 1969. The 20th (and so far last) was released in October, 2006.
 
In classic [[Road Runner vs. Coyote]] fashion, it follows the adventures of an anthropomorphic wolf who constantly chases after a hare in an urban environment. The Hare is an embodiment of youth, athleticism and intellectual virtues, while the Wolf is a chain-smoking, alcohol-swilling lowlife.

Some of the shorts are available to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K85YnXMOozY&feature=player_embedded watch on YouTube] with English subtitles. The [http://www.archive.org/details/Nu_Pogodi Internet Archive] also has episodes, but without subtitles.

=== ''Nu, Pogodi!'' provides examples of: ===
{{tropelist}}
* [[Alla Pugacheva]]: As an [[Anthropomorphic Animal]] (a fox). Hare and Wolf run into her dressing room and then both end up singing her song, ''Iceberg''.
** Also in episode 14: ''Million Scarlet Roses'' plays in the background when Wolf visits Zayats. The fact that he came over wearing fancy clothing and bringing cider and red flowers just boosts the [[Ho Yay]] [[Up to Eleven]].
Line 18 ⟶ 20:
* [[A Dog Named "Dog"|A Wolf Named Wolf]]: So is Hare.
* [[Amusement Park]]: Setting for Episode 2.
* [[Ass in Aa Lion Skin]]: In one short, the Wolf is thrown out of a TV studio when he tries to sneak in, and keeps re-entering in attempted disguises as other animals (e.g., wearing a black-and-white striped shirt and claiming to be a zebra, or dropping on all fours with a big bowl on his back and proclaiming to be a tortoise). None of these work.
* [[Barefoot Cartoon AnimalsAnimal]]s
* [[Beach Episode]]: The very first one, as well as episode 19.
* [[Call Back]]: In Episode 10 the Wolf has a dream that mirrors a scene in the first episode, except the roles are reversed and the Hare is pursuing him.
* [[Catapult Nightmare]]: Episode 17, in which the Wolf dreams of the Hare turning into a werewolf.
* [[Catch Phrase]]: Wolf's "Nu, Zayats, pogodi!" ("Well, Hare, you just wait!"). In the English dubs, it's "[[ThisPunctuated! IsFor! SpartaEmphasis!|Just! You! Wait!]]".
* [[Catch That Pigeon|Catch That Hare]]
* [[Determinator]]: see [[Catch Phrase]] above.
Line 32 ⟶ 34:
* [[Instant Dogend]]
* [[Licensed Game]]: A release as a title from the [[Elektronika IM]] series of handheld games (said handheld is pictured on said trope's page).
** The game has since been (unofficially) adapted to other systems. And yes, there is an [[iiPhone PhoneGames|iPhone]] version.
* [[Mickey Mousing]]: The action is often synchronized with the music, while not shoving it in your face.
* [[Milestone Celebration]]: Epodode 17 was the 25th anniversary special. Wolf and Hare come out onstage in old-age makeup and canes before changing back to their old selves.
