Calaboose is a 1943 sequel to Dudes are Pretty People (1942), a Western film featurette from "Hal Roach's Streamliners," a series of approximately 50-minute comedic movies, in this case directed by Hal Roach, Jr. and starring Jimmy Rogers as "Jimmy" and Noah Beery, Jr. as "Pidge Crosby" (Beery's real-life nickname was "Pidge"). The film runs 45 minutes and features Mary Brian in the supporting cast. Another sequel followed later the same year, with Rogers and Beery playing the same characters, entitled Prairie Chickens.
