I find this hard to believe. Hanna-Barbera cartoons, maybe.

Personal experience: I was doing some experiments in single-frame grabbing
last night, and the material I happened to be using was a recording of the
"Goodnight Kiwi" animation off TV2. Most of that was drawn at 12.5 frames per
second (ie there was only a change every other frame). However in one section
(the kiwi and the cat walking/frolicing through the studio) there was a
change every frame--25 frames per second!
