Millward and Cavis

Millward and Cavis is a computer-animated franchise and series of comedy short films created in 1939 by Tim Hodge and Phil Vischer. Best known for its 46 theatrical short films by Big Idea Productions (which was the first short film not having a logo at the time until 1947 or 1958), the series centers on a friendship/rivalry (a love-hate relationship) between the title characters Millward Phelps (played by Larry the Cucumber), and Cavis Appythart (played by Bob the Tomato). Many shorts also feature several recurring characters. The series premiered on PAX on December 31st, 1939.

Trivia

 * As the episodes started in 1939, Millward and Cavis then started using prototype covers, which didn't make it into the final prints of various shorts and videos.
 * Big Idea's logo isn't anywhere to be seen on the packaging, VHS covers or disc, despite having the logo when this around the produce of "Dog Trouble" which was the first Big Idea product to use the logo.
