Yep, I am a toy collector and have plush of all the major characters and other stuff..and I own the whole series ( the last season, the 5th was pretty pricey too)
I remember watching the show as a kid. It was the first cartoon show made especially for children (Saturday TV was either westerns or group shows like тАЬAndyтАЩs GangтАЭ [which I also watched: Sabu!]). WasnтАЩt Hans Conried also part of the show?
Yes, he was, as Snidely Whiplash. He was also Captain Hook in Disney's Peter Pan, among other voices...Bullwinkle was a Canadian product, and as an adult not only did some things make more sense once I knew that...but, I picked up on the adult humor that was over my head at the time, my dad used to love the show and watched it with us, and I shouldn't realized that...lol
I love punny/silly humor generally...and I think of Wassa Mater U all the time and giggle...while I have the DVD's and collectibles of many cartoon shows , Bullwinkle is my favorite
Oh yes! Fractured Fairytales тАж I had forgotten. Watching that show as a child made me feel like an adultтАФall that unchildish humor. It was the only cartoon show watchable. (I also loved тАЬThe Cisco KidтАЭ.)
You are a few years older than I am (67), I don't remember The Cisco Kid, but I did like The Jetsons, and The Flintstones when they came around...and Looney Tunes,, and later on Johnny Quest (I had a crush on him and Speed Racer), and later on Scooby Do
Yes. I am soon to be 75. ChildrenтАЩs (black-and-white) television was so different then: no cartoons except WWII vintage Popeye and Looney Tunes; Saturday mornings were all half-hour Westerns (тАЬCisco KidтАЭ and тАЬKit CarsonтАЭ and Roy Rogers), AndyтАЩs Gang (hosted by Andy Devine). The later cartoons - Flintstones, Jetsons - I was тАЬtoo adultтАЭ for тАж besides, comic books came back in fashion; soul food for a teenage boy.
Hans Conreid also starred in the movie тАЬThe 5,000 Fingers of Dr. TтАЭ тАж which scared me silly. And that Rocky humor! So funny, and so adultтАФI watched it zealously. (Also Soupy Sales!)
Re: New Media Seat I'm pulling for Natasha Fatale. It's the only way to find out about Moose and Squirrel.
No better squirrel in all the world! And a moose for youse.
Rocky and Bullwinkle rule тАж forever!

Rocky and Bullwinkle, Boris and Natasha, Dudley Dooright and Tess Trueheart тАж but my favorite was always Mr. Peabody.
And his Boy Sherman...
I liked the Fractured Fairy Godmother, ( I like them all really) and I also loved Peabody and Sherman)
Sherman went back in time in one episode and when he came back to the present he said to Mr Peabody:
тАЬThe good old days werenтАЩt so good. In fact they was rottenтАЭ Loved that quote.
Yeah...it was a brilliant cartoon
I have a plush version of her ( as I do all of them), and she is just too cute

The old cartoon were better--more frame per second.
