NOTES

"Befuddlement was the chief ingredient in Hullabaloo, and as perpetrated by that ace befuddler, Frank Morgan, it had its amusing moments."
- Clive Hirschhorn, The Hollywood Musical

"Slim framework for a variety show encasing some young MGM talents."
- Leslie Halliwell, Halliwell's Film Guide
