    I always thought that kind of quirk was amusing, especially when Grandpa Nutmeg & wife are at the window, in which case there’s really no other way to explain the visual other than to conclude that the characters are simply cardboard cutouts.

        I agree, but like I say, it gets even more ridiculous sometimes. Or at least it has in the past. Check this out:

        Grandma’s lower body is clearly inside the house, but there she is standing straight upright (i.e. not bending forward), and somehow her *upper* body is in front of the window frame, with the window being half-open.

        Physically, it really only works if she’s made out of thin cardboard.
