BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Question context: After the success of Steamboat Willie, Walt Disney considered a new cartoon series proposed by an acquaintance from Kansas City named Carl Stalling.
Option 1: 'Looney Tunes' — This is a Warner Bros. series, not a Disney project, and it was developed under Carl Stalling later in his career at Warner Bros., making this option historically incorrect in the Disney context.
Option 2: 'Merrie Melodies' — Similar to Looney Tunes, this is a Warner Bros. series, associated with a different creative direction and studio, not connected to Disney’s post-Steamboat Willie plans, so it is incorrect for this question.
Option 3: 'Silly Symphonies' — This is the Disney series that aligns with the timeframe and the described collaboration with Carl Stalling from Kansas City, who contributed to Disney’s early musical cartoon productions, making this the historically accurate choice for the proposed new series.
Option 4: 'Happy Harmoneez' — This title does not correspond to a known Disney series from that era and does not fit the described historical scenario, so it is not a correct match.
In summary, options 1 and 2 are tied to Warner Bros. rather than Disney, option 4 is not a recognized Disney project of the period, while option 3 matches the described collaboration and context, making it the historically appropriate choice.
