It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

The Pink Panther strolls by a park and sees children on roller skates. So, he gets the idea that he wants a pair of skates for his own as well. As luck would have it, the panther's fairy godmother appears out of the blue and grants him three wishes. His first wish is a pair of roller skates, which appears and, unfortunately attaches to his feet and automatically moves on its own. So, we have a runaway panther hilariously causing havoc in everywhere he runs into, from the City Park to the City Zoo. He also does a little traffic rerouting and some police dodging. Funny stuff here, not much of a story, but still pretty entertaining.Grade B

Fun stuff, if not among one of the best Pink Panther cartoons, and apart from having skates and has a more-of-the-same sort of premise. The animation is kept simple but has good detail and the colours are pretty. You don't expect the music to be any less than good, and it is good, in fact the music is great. It is jazzy and energetic and the theme tune still has its timeless value. There is nothing extraordinary or creative about the gags, that doesn't matter so much because they're still well-timed and funny. It's also very one-joke stuff but it's executed well. The accidental painting of the white lines and Pinky's escape from the train in the subway were agreed particularly good. The ending is funny too. Pinky is still of great likability, charm and coolness as a character, carrying the cartoon with no problems at all. All in all, very good and fun, one-joke cartoons don't always work but Tickled Pink did. 8/10 Bethany Cox

A Fast-Moving Cartoon.....Literally The Pink Panther idly watches kids go whizzing by on roller skates and thinks it looks like a fun thing to do. He shrugs his shoulders and walks away but instantly his "fairy godmother" appears and offers him three wishes. Basically, until the end, he gives him just one - his first wish which is, of course, some roller skates. Unfortunately for the Panther, these skates not only go off on their own but they're are fast and don't come off!So, what we get is one mishap after another as the Panther zooms around town, in the country and back in the city. Along the way we get some very good sight gags. I especially laughed at him accidentally painting the white lines in middle of the road, his escape from the subway train and the car assembly line.I know it's only a one-joke episode, but I thought that one joke was pretty darned good: clever in parts and very, very entertaining. That includes the ending in which we see the Panther's final two wishes, and justice prevails, big-time. Good stuff!

This short takes its one-joke premise and runs it into the ground. Though the series is naturally limited by the very nature of the main character, this one feels like it was simply phoned in-they needed to provide a certain number of shorts and this one was filler done to meet contractual obligations. I do want to discuss this a little, so a mild spoiler warning is probably advisable: The Pink Panther is given three wishes by his fairy godmother and for his first one, he wishes for roller skates. For the bulk of the short, the skates cause him no end of grief. They have a mind of their own and he is continually crashing through or into things like windowpanes, brick walls, paint buckets and so on. It becomes so predictable that the gags aren't even mildly funny in far too high a percentage of cases. There truly just isn't that much to work with here. Other shorts have had a one-joke premise-most of them, really-but the gags here aren't especially novel or creative terribly often.His fairy godmother returns at the tail-end of the short to remind him he has two more wishes and his second one is to remove the skates. His final wish is the funniest bit in the short and even that is treated predictably. The ending is still funny, but it loses a bit of novelty through trite application.This is available on The Pink Panther Classic Cartoon Collection. The Collection is worth getting, though this short may only be of interest to completists.
