I remember a cartoon I saw as a kid where there was an island of goons.Am I correct and did the island have a name?

Well, there were a few episodes like that, but you are likely thinking of the one where Popeye encounters his long-lost pappy being held captive by the goons (although not long ago I posted a hypothesis that Pappy had disappeared to the uncharted island to get away from his family). The name of the island, quite creatively, was Goon Island.

Goon Island.That cartoon scared me a little when I was a kid.All those identical goons running around everywhere.They were a slightly unattractive bunch.

As a side note, it tunrs out that Goon Island was eventually mysteriously abandoned at some point, without a single trace of the Goon civilization remaining. Hence, the now-familiar expression:
Here today, goon tomorrow.

Actually, all the goons moved to the Carbondale area of SW Illinois. I met one of the descendants. He worked at a Staples.

Bringing back this topic.  My brain is awfully scattered these days - Alice did *not* appear in any of the Fleischer or Famous toons, right? I'm barely familiar with the KFS ones - did she appear in those? |

Despite being a Segar creation and being in the funny pages during the Fleischer and Famous Studios eras, Alice never appeared in any of their cartoons. She was in several KFS ones. The Fleischer cartoon, "Goon Island," which this thread refers to, featured Alice's people, but not Alice herself. |

Does anyone know the name of the cartoon episode that Alice the Goon stated "I love Popeye...I love Popeye?"
