Does anyone know what happened to the Underdog Show on Boomerang and why it hasn't been on the roster this month?Or did they take the series off the air, for which that would suck! :(

Don't worry, Nelson. Underdog returns to Boomerang's line-up in March. In May, he'll be the Featured Character of the Month. So, every Friday in May will be Underdog all day.

That sounds like a decent reason to give a show a break a few months earlier. They could have chosen a time closer to the featured month, though.

they have the Rocky N Bullwinkle marathons this month to my delight. Maybe because Bullwinkle was the lead-in to Underdog, they just scrapped that hour for this month. Doesnt Underdog return in March?

Boomerang switches their schedual around all the time. They are now starting to show a full day of Rocky and Bulwinkle on friday; it used to be The Bananna Splits show only a couple of weeks ago. Thankfully, as already mentioned, he will return in March.

Yeah, Boomerang changes their line-up around every month. Every month also has a "Featured Character" that gets an all-day marathon every Friday during that month (this month is Rocky & Bullwinkle, March is Popeye, April is Tom & Jerry, and May is Underdog... not a bad line-up... :D :D )

Thanks for the good news Jon :) Maybe this time Boomerang will show all of the entire Underdog episodes.

I think it's possible they don't have the rights to all the Underdog episodes. They don't appear to have the rights to all the Bullwinkle episodes either (I've never seen them air the Goof Gas series from R&B, for example). I am guessing the remaining episodes are in a separate syndication package.
