Search: Rue Brittania (Bullwinkle may be the new Earl of Crankcase), Banana Formula, Treasure of Monte Zoom, Greenpernt Oogle (utterly bizarre one involving Boris seducing a fortune-telling oogle bird with promises to take her to his home in the Casbah), Box Top Robbery. The very long first serial is pretty great as well. Fearless Leader.
Destroy: The ones without Boris and Natasha tend to be a bit lackluster. Captain Peachfuzz is annoying.
Of the sideshows:
Fractured Fairy Tales: Mostly classic, thanks in large part to Edward Everett Horton. Search the Little Red Riding Hood one, in which everyone ends up dead.
Dudley Do-Right: Totally classic. Dudley->Nell->Dudley's horse = best love triangle ever.
Aesop and Son: Mostly dud. I always want to beat the snot out of Junior. But, SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH The Dog and His Shadow, which is utter genius.
Peabody and Sherman: Kinda dud. Neither of them is very likable. Sometimes worth watching for the awful puns at the end, though.
I haven't seen the movie, but DESTROY.

I remember being utterly bored by Dudley Do-Right, with Fractured Fairy Tales and Peabody & Sherman being really hit-or-miss. Frankly, I saw all of these as impediments to getting back to the Rocky and Bullwinkle stuff.

Peabody and Sherman: Kinda dud.
This is just foolishness. It's the most consistent bit on the show!
Sometimes worth watching for the awful puns at the end, though.
Son, if you don't like awful puns, you best move along. Nothing to see here.
I love the version of Rumplestilzkin where he's not a magical gnome who can actually turn straw into gold, he's just a really good PR agent.

thanks in large part to Edward Everett Horton
he's great, maybe the best, but all the voice talent on this show is fantastic. Genius comedians, the lot of them.
― kenan, Sunday, 3 August 2008 10:01 (seventeen years ago)
Yeah, perhaps a bit too dismissive of Peabody and Sherman. It just never did all that much for me, with some exceptions.
Whoever does the voices for the kings and princes in FFT - that sort of constantly bored, dubious voice - is amazing.
"Okay, you will marry the queen, and have a son, who will have a nose like a casaba melon. And until he says the words, 'I've got a nose like a casaba melon,' he'll have a nose like a casaba melon. Got it?"
"Seems a little harsh-"
"And if anyone tells him the magic words ahead of time, they shall perish. Like instantly!"

got first season on dvd today, am really totally super excited for this. i wasted hours of my youth watching this stuff. fractured fairytales i enjoyed, and dudley do-right was largely a good bit. peabody & sherman > aesop & son, though neither was all that great.
this was just such a fun show. its creators understood a child's attention span pretty well imo.

peabody a snobby nerd & sherman's kind of a schmuck tbh
― ian, Sunday, 4 October 2009 03:50 (sixteen years ago)
but the puns are okay!
and if they travelled to medieval times or the age of exploration or submarines or some shit it was pretty cool
― ian, Sunday, 4 October 2009 03:51 (sixteen years ago)
You don't have a clue. I can only hope you don't deprive your potential future children of sherman and peabody based on your rediculous prejudices.
― Alex Android (Viceroy), Sunday, 4 October 2009 04:22 (sixteen years ago)
Maybe his future children will get into the WABAC machine with MP & his boy S and go back in time and tell Ted Key and Jay Ward to put some better jokes in those things so that he would like them better.

Superchicken was produced about 8-9 years later (late Sixties) than Rocky and Friends, IIRC.

I used to see Superchicken with George of the Jungle, but I can't remember if that was the parent show or just another serial with the parent.
― nickn, Wednesday, 9 December 2009 01:09 (fifteen years ago)
Just checked IMDB--Super Chicken was one of the two supporting serials for George of the Jungle. And it came out in 1967, so I was right on the date. (Rocky and His Friends/The Bullwinkle Show was 1959.) George of the Jungle actually predates all of them, though--the original pilot was made in 1948 and shown along with the Crusader Rabbit pilot (and a third one that I've forgotten.)
