My grandsons love the cartoons with Popeye's nephews. I've Googled a dozen ways but cannot get a listing of just the titles where the nephews appear. Any one know the "nephew" titles? Thanks.

IIRC their names were Poopeye, Pipeye, and Pupeye , so if you try doing a search under "character" names at IMDb, you may come up with a list of what you want.

This link on IMDb should give you a good start:

I remember there were originally four of them, then just two in some of the late-period Famous/Paramounts (probably budget reasons).

As with nearly all cartoon nephews/nieces, there were never any allusion to their parentage and they were residents, visitors, or completely absent depending on the plot of that particular cartoon. It was also a little awkward how the nephews mostly elbowed out Swee'pea -- Did they ever appear in the same cartoon? (Swee'pea was from the original comic strip, an infant Popeye adopted).

Never really cared for the "eye" kids. Huey, Dewey and Louie were the only ones who really pulled off that undifferentiated-clones thing.

Thanks for the responses but nothing gives me just the titles with the nephews.
