You beat me to it, Colin. I was going to say something about that show. My wife and I watched that episode last night too. I'd totally forgotten about that series. Must be 30 years since I've seen it.
Interesting how short his kilt got by the end of the episode.

Argh. I've been catching a few episodes on teletoon as well since it was such a strong childhood memory but I missed this episode.

Don't forget the old Scrooge McDuck character (uncle of Huey, Duey, and Luey). He was always defending his kilt wearing by shouting "It's NAE a SKIRT, It's a KILT!"
Anyone remember how he was related to Donald?

Wasn't he Donald's Uncle?

Am I the only one that remembers the Rock 'N' Wrestling cartoon?
Of course, Roddy Piper wore a kilt.

I was watching Series 3 of the Simpsons today. In the episode "The Otto Show" in which Spinal Tap has a concert in Springfield, Nigel Tufnel is wearing a kilt!

On the simpson's last night the family takes a trip to England where they meet a good selection of celebs including Tony Blair, Judi Dench, and Sir Ian MacKellan who comes out of a theatre where he is staring in MacBeth. Mackellan is kilted throughout his entire portion of the show.

Continuing on the cartoon kilt theme,
Last night I rented Scooby Doo meets the Loch Ness Monster on DVD for my son. The were plenty of kilts, as well as bagpipes and some highland games. My son laughed his pants off when Scooby and Shaggy wore kilts at the end. He thought it was funny, because "Doggies don't wear kilts!".
It was actually entertaining. The special features has a "How to speak Scottish" feature with descripitions of Scottish items. Kilt was listed as "a pleated skirt usually made of wool and worn by men". Sounds right to me.

cartoons...
The Simpsons episode I remember starts off with Groundskeeper Willie presiding at "Scotchtoberfest" and playing the pipes -- Bart ties a balloon to his kilt, and of course, it goes flying up, and the crowd lets out a gasp -- Willie says, "What are ye lookin' at, you Puritian Pukes? It's only what God graced me with!" Later, it is discovered that "Scotchtoberfest" is a ruse to trap Bart: "Ya used me, Skinner!"

This is too cool! Scrooge McDuck is my favourite Disney character. The other kilt-wearing duck was Flintheart Glomgold, Scrooge's nemisis.
Cheers !

Groundskeeper Willie
He to me embodies what I thought of a true Scott,Tough as nails,and not afraid to get dirty to get the job done.Did you see him save Bart from the wolf and then after he beat him he shared "a wee nip"
with him to show no hard feelings.
I'm a hardcore,never going to grow up cartoon nut
opps got to go Simpsons are on
