. . . viewers that the wages of sin are Eternal Torment. Buzz Buzzard is depicted as the Epitome of Evil. First of all, he specializes in killing sheriffs. They pose the only threat to his Reign of Terror against ordinary townspeople. Next, he displays a fiendish familiarity with the Lure of the Links. Buzz is engulfed by golf. Shortly thereafter, we see this Vulture of Vice hand-rolling a coffin nail from the demon weed plant. Finally, the bizarrely blitzed buzzard boozes his brains into oblivion, allowing himself to be pent up in a blazing hot pot bellied stove with a box of dynamite. Even Today, cop killers find themselves shot, dangled, needled, gassed or fried more likely than not, after which they spend the next million billion millennia roasting on Lucifer's spit with timeouts only for drenching dips in hot sulfur pits. No wonder the final tableau of WILD AND WOODY! Shows Buzz on the one-way elevator going Down Below.

Woody of the West
Hitchcoc2 January 2019
Woody takes a job as a sheriff in a western town where the previous sheriffs have all been killed. It turns out that Buzz Buzzard is the bad guy and he is quite formidable. One funny bit is the number of shots it takes to kill one of these sheriffs. He writes this in a golf scorecard. This is a bit morbid for a cartoon. But the irrepressible Woody steals the show in the end.
Woody Woodpecker in the Wild West
TheLittleSongbird20 July 2017
Was very fond of Woody Woodpecker and his cartoons as a child. Still get much enjoyment out of them now as a young adult, even if there are more interesting in personality cartoon characters and better overall cartoons.
That is in no way knocking Woody, because many of his cartoons are a lot of fun to watch and more and also still like him a lot as a character. 'Wild and Woody' is one of his best cartoons overall, not just one of his best to not feature his most frequent nemesis Wally Walrus. Although the premise and setting themselves have been featured many times in animation, it was nice to have a less typical kind of story and a completely different setting for Woody Woodpecker, which does make it stand out.
While there are more interesting characters, Woody is an amusing character and never too obnoxious. Buzzy is a great foil and the two interact very well together.
As ever, the animation is great. The characters are well drawn, but even better are the rich colours, meticulously detailed backgrounds and smooth backgrounds.
Music is another strength here. It's characterful, lushly orchestrated and is not only dynamic with the action it even enhances it. The writing is amusing and chuckle-worthy enough and the gags are well-timed and often hilarious.
Solid voice acting as to be expected.
All in all, truly terrific. 10/10 Bethany Cox
