Again, no Dudley Do-Right

[Joe Tully]

Well, it looks like the 11:30 showing of Dudley is going to be replaced with Rocky and Bullwinkle permanently. This actually makes me happy, since I am a big Jay Ward fan and didn't care as much for the Leonardo cartoons. Now, I get too see more Jay Ward on Sat. Besides, they've been repeating the shows lately, and there aren't very many Dudley segments. I assume they'll also remove Dudley from the later Sat. (or early Sun.) time slot.

On the plus side, they seem to be bringing back the old bumpers (usually one of the "Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat" ones). They seem to have removed Peabody but are leaving in Fractured Fairy Tales and the short Bullwinkle's Corner/Mister Know-it-all/Fan Club segments. No Aesop lately, but the Fairy Tales are generally better than them. Hopefully they'll add some of the other, less played bumpers soon. Also, we are beginning the classic Wossamotta U. storyline! Woohoo!

CN's prints of Dudley Do-Right are of dismal quality.

They belong on public domain cartoon tapes, not on TV. You'd think they could get better prints.

1. What is Natasha's last name?

2. R&B was the second series produced by Ward (a San Franciscan). What was the first?

Are you asking because you don't know, or is this a test?





1."Fatale" (not sure about the spelling)

2.Was it Crusader Rabbit? (not sure)

Of COURSE it was a test - you thing there is maybe something I DON'T know?!

very good - correct on both!

I thought so, I like these little tests. It harkens back to when Matthew did Super Genious Trivia (which could still be done here if everyone used spoilers)

I can't use or select spoilers. My crappy internet service has a crappy browser that doesn't have a select option. Basically, all I can do is type. Don't cry for me.

It would have been even better if CN had replaced Dudley with Jay Ward's rarely seen Hoppity Hooper series. I have NEVER seen that show before.

They removed Sherman and Mr. Peabody? How could they do that? I thought that series was part of Rocky and Bullwinkle. I love those guys, they're one of the best segments.

I recall seeing a Mr. Peabody not too long ago. It was the one with Robinson Cruesoe and his man Friday!

Peabody is a victim of packaging. Currently the episodes running have six segments and wrap in two days. When longer arcs start up again, Peabody will return. Dudley is rarely packaged with these for some unknown a reason. A shame - he's the best part of the show.

[Joe Tully]

Yeah, I'd love to see some Hoppity too. Especially that Traffic Zone story..From what I remember hearing about it, it was pretty weird. I've heard that Fractured Flickers is occasionally on some cable channels, but I'll be darned if I know which ones.

I really miss Super Chicken. He's probably my favorite Ward character. One of these days, I'm going to have to get a tape of his episodes.

[Matthew Hunter]

Yeah, I liked Superchicken, too,...wasn't he part of "George Of the Jungle"?

Yeah he was. So was "Tom Slick".

I loved "George of the Jungle". My local Fox station would air it every Saturday morning. The strange thing is they snuck it into the Fox Kids Club. That was the thing with stuff like X-men. But I don't remember it that well. I was just 4!. I miss the early 90's....

G64, I'm with you man! The late 80's and early 90's were a REAT time to be a kid. I used to wake up at 5am every Saturday, make a HUGE bowl of Golden Grahms and park my self in front of the TV for hours. I loved Superchicken! Tom Slick was kinda stupid, but I watched it anyway. Those shows had some good theme songs didn't they. I'll bet everyone who watched George of the Jungle knows the theme songs to all the doifferent cartoons. You know what though? Nickelodeon was the best place for Rocky and Bullwinkle. That and Underdog. I loved Underdog, too! I used to make Sonic the Hedgehog comic books and some of the the stories were based on Underdog episodes. Those comics were STOLEN! Damn. People like to steal my art. Maybe that means I AM good!
