I must confess -- I enjoyed them a lot too. They certainly were a break from normal Disney standards with their wild and zany brand of humor. I must admit, however, I was sort of partial to the Tex Tinstar segment from the same show.

But, getting back to Pith, his cartoons were often hilarious, though they sometimes crossed the line from wild & zany, offbeat humor to downright stupidity. My favorite cartoon from his is probably "The Darkness - It Is Dark" with an appearance by Paul Bunion who tries to kidnap Obediah so he can add "raccoon flavoring" to the huge amounts of maple syrup he is stealing. I also like Pith's premiere cartoon, "Phantom Mask of the Dark Black Darkness of Black" with an insane enormous Easter Bunny.
