Interesting facts

Production notes

Filmed on June 6–10, 1940, the working title of Cookoo Cavaliers was Beauty á la Mud.

In one scene where Moe throws a bottle of hair remover, the bottle breaks on a wall and spills on a dog. Curly cleans off the dog, yet we do not see the dog losing its hair. This was due to a continuity error and the scene was never resolved.

The "cookoo" in the title is often misspelled as "cuckoo."
