Scotty Beckett was added to the OUR GANG series for two episodes as punishment for ___________________________________ Nothing at all. Sometimes, bad things just happen! Speaking of bad things, in GOOD BAD BOYS (1940), the bad deed/s Alfalfa was to originally be accused of, was __________________________________________.

Peeing on the arc lights, nearly cutting Darla's finger off, giving Mickey a frog sandwich, and sticking a fish-hook in Spanky's pants. But Alfalfa's parents nixed them, saying they were nobody's business.
WALDO'S LAST STAND was originally going to feature a performance by a very young _______________________________________

TIME OUT FOR LESSONS was originally going to have the Gang engage in such wacky college hijinks as _________________________________________ Engaging in one of those crazy Dance Marathons, until they realized it couldn't be accomplished in a one reel short! Instead of a TALE OF A DOG (1944), this short was originally to be ______________________________.

CALLING ALL KIDS was originally slated to be shown in _____________________________________ Smell-O-Rama, but it was decided the short already stunk enough. Instead of a downhill Go-Cart race, AUTO ANTICS (1939) was originally going to be about ________________________________________.

Mickey was originally going to debut in _____________________________________ ALADDIN'S LANTERN (1938), but the MGM brass decided that they weren't quite ready for Mr. Gubitosi's brand of magic! Or was that blandly tragic? It's hard to tell exactly what was said being stuck in a vacuum....somebody rub my bottle so I can escape, please! PARTY FEVER (1938) was originally going to be about ______________________________.

The main difference between THREE SMART BOYS and THREE SMART GUYS is ________________________________________ I'm not sure, but it shouldn't be too difficult to "spot!" Also, the writers for one were actually very smart; the writers of the other, well.... The main difference between CIRCUS FEVER and PARTY FEVER is _____________________________________________________.
