Interesting, I have been trying to watch the Rocket Fuel storyline. I got about 20 episodes in and sort of burned out. They’ve been dishing out the story in such short segments. I enjoyed Fractured Fairytales and Mr. Peabody a lot more as those are more fun and complete self contained stories...
I was wondering why you wrote E.E. Horton. Then I realized I called him Norton and not Horton. I know a guy named Norton at work so it must have been force of habit or a spell check alteration. 🙂
Guys, I’ve finally dug into several Rocky and Bullwinkle episodes of the Jet Fuel storyline. It’s been so long since I last seen this, I have absolutely no recollection of the story! But I do get flashbacks of the credits music and it’s so odd to see the opening titles on the DVD sets. I’m...
Hey guys, I finally got around to opening the Rocky and Bullwinkle set. A friend warned me that an earlier Bullwinkle DVD set had a logo bug on the lower corner of the cartoons. I checked and I was disappointed to See my set also has a logo bug showing. But it goes away after a few seconds. It’s...
I’ve received all three of the series sets last week. The Universal release of Rocky and Bullwinkle and from Shout, Underdog and Tennessee Tuxedo. It will take me a little time before I tear into these sets and enjoy reliving my youth. And also to see how they are are assembled, in terms of the...
Andrew, I have a vague memory of seeing Hans Conried doing what I see in that video. So I probably had seen these as a kid. It all looks silly and that’s the idea. What I hadn’t realized was these shows, Rocky and Bullwinkle and the Flickers was written by Chris Hayward, Allan Burns, Lloyd...
I’d read about Fractured Flickers when I looked up Jay Ward Last weekend. I was mainly interested in the specific cartoons I remembered from my youth that got this thread started. :) So I could look into those Fractured Flickers. Thanks.
I had not looked into these cartoons this closely until the other day when I started this thread. So it’s interesting to learn how in the main shows, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Underdog, and Tennessee Tuxedo has the shorts inserted, but with no negatives that exists with the shorts for complete...
Thanks again Mark, that’s quite a review of the cartoons that were in the main shows. Most of those cartoons rings a bell. But I don’t recall ever seeing the King Leonardo and The King and Odie! My memories are what I saw in syndication of course.
Thanks Mark, you really know these cartoons!
I think I’ll try to order the complete Rocky and Bullwinkle DVD set. I guess there will never likely be a remastered blu ray. I’m still a little confused with the titles and theme music that is used from those YouTube videos, but I’ll see them when I...
Andrew, that’s the music I remember that I saw. If I understand what I’m reading, this is the theme used when the series switched to NBC. That’s what’s on the DVD sets?
Fred Steiner had quite a varied portfolio of work!
I wasn’t old enough to see Bullwinkle in its original run, but I remember seeing later, so I never knew the original music, at least I think I’ve ever seen it with the original music. Now I’m curious to see it again! :)
On YouTube, I found a couple of Tennessee Tuxedo episodes and some look...
Thanks a lot Mark. I did some reading up after seeing your post to better understand what’s going, such as the Bullwinkle two network runs, ABC, then NBC. I didn’t know that. Glad you think the music change isn’t that bad. It will be great that all the other segments are included such as Peabody...
Hey guys-
I was thinking about these two shows suddenly. I did a search and did not find any posts about some recent complete series sets for The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show and Underdog. The later being from Shout and Bullwinkle from Universal.
I grew up on these cartoons. I hadn’t really had...
