I had given up on the How to Rejuvenate the Board thread when I looked at it again and saw a vote for a poll. I looked at a couple films where angels were mentioned, but didn't find the line in the Quotes game, so I'm going ahead with this, hoping this wasn't done before. I realize the burglars in Little Miss Pinkerton actually murdered someone which should put them at the top of this list, but I'd rather ignore the MGM era. Since approval voting, where you vote for as many candidates as you like is usually better than one vote per person, I'm trying a limit of 5 on this. If there are some good choices for others I've likely omitted I'll find out if poll choices can be edited. If this gets some votes, and I get another vote to make polls on the Rejuvenation thread, I'll come up with another poll.

You omitted Sherwood's mother from DOGS IS DOGS!

I'm glad someone is paying attention, and that was one I meant to include. It turns out that I couldn't directly edit the poll, but could delete it and replace it.

I agree, Sherwood's mother was super strict and gave him a series of rapid spankings for letting Pete in the house. Surprising she wasn't on the list, but is now.

Sherwood's mother wasn't on the original list due to my incompetence. I went down the list of films and thought of the plot of "Pups Is Pups" when I came to "Dogs is Dogs." I would not be surprised if there are some more good candidates out there.

Sherwood's mom,IMO, defined the evil parent role.

Another error: that's supposed to be Mary Ann and Wheezer's stepmother in "The Spanking Age." I had it right the first time, but now I have to leave it as it is, otherwise votes already cast will be lost. Getting these polls right is hard.

I think Mother Malone from "Boys to Board" is the most evil Our Gang adult.

Sherwood's mother is really the worst mother in my opinion. I always found "Dogs is Dogs" almost Chaplin-like, a bit of social criticsm, tears and laughter. My second vote goes to Cap's wife aka Louise Emmons.

It would have been interesting if both Blanche Payson and Louise Emmons appeared in the same sound-era short.

How would they "eat" each other up?

After watching "Bring Home the Turkey" I have to say that "Ol' Wart-Head" should have been on this list and definitely makes my top five.

I realize you already have Leonard's father from "The Lucky Corner," and that we're talking essentially the same role essayed by the same actor.
But I find the character to be more evil in "For Pete's Sake" than I do in "The Lucky Corner."
