The following is a filmography of the Popeye cartoons which came out of the Max Fleischer and Paramount Studios between the years of 1933 and 1957. Thanks go to Leonard Maltin for his book Of Mice and Magic which was my primary source. Please note that there may be small errors on this page which were corrected in the episode guide. I am still working on making sure these two lists match. If in doubt, rely on the episode guide.

Note: There was an additional 'short', "Let's Sing Along with Popeye", released by the Fleischer studio in 1934, but as it has no plot, I don't see any reason to discuss it. But, if you must know more about it, you can go visit it over on the IMDb.
