Story
At first sight, Popeye the sailor seems to be very rude and uneducated, but he often manages to solve problems that seem insurmountable to the police. He has superior investigative powers and scientific ingenuity, and turns out to be a successful diplomat. His pipe is his main attribute and serves all kinds of purposes like a cutting torch, jet engine, propeller, periscope, musical instrument, and most importantly, a whistle with which he produces his trademark toot. It also comes in handy when Popeye wants to suck his daily dose of spinach out of a can ! A recurrent element in the animated series is the love triangle between Popeye, Olive, and Bluto. Both men try to win Olive over, which leads to some very tricky situations.
