April 27, 1940 –

The Looney Tunes short, Porky’s Poor Fish, directed by Robert Clampett, and starring Porky Pig, debuted on this date.
Three sequences from the storyboard got cut from the finished short, which include a view of a mama fish and three little fishes, a “dog fish” and “cat fishes,” a dance number from a turtle, and an alternative scene in which the cat tries to steal a fish hiding behind a lobster, but the other fishes find out and the flying fishes attack using light bulbs as bombs.
