Hot and Cold Penguin is a 1955 Chilly Willy cartoon directed by Alex Lovy and prdouced by Walter Lantz. It was the third Chilly Willy cartoon and was the first cartoon Alex Lovy directed at the Walter Lantz Studio since his departure in 1943. Although Tex Avery had left the Walter Lantz Studio the year before, he left behind three new Chilly Willy storyboards. So Alex Lovy decided to make three new Chilly Willy cartoons using the storyboards Avery left behind. These cartoons were Hot and Cold Penguin, Room and Wrath, and Hold that Rock. Lovy remained director of the Chilly Willy series for the rest of the decade.
Chilly Willy is lost and cold in the Arctic when he spies a warm furnace on board a ship stuck in polar ice. The only trouble is that Smedley who len't him into the house.
