The character of Dudley Do-Right was a well-intentioned but incompetent Mountie, but there was one character that only appeared in one cartoon, and that cartoon was BANNED for 44 years!

As an animation art dealer, it's interesting to know that most of the celluloids, which are highly collectible, were thrown out or washed off for reuse after the film was finished. At Jay Ward Studio, to save production costs, the animation was done in Mexico City as the labor costs were cheaper. That said, when the cels were thrown out, people would raid the dumpsters behind the studio and reuse them as roof tiles because they were waterproof. I was told this by Leonard Maltin, but it still sound like an apocryphal tale, however, one of my collectors in Texas told me that his housekeeper was from Mexico City and she said, indeed, homes were tiled with the cels. Suffice to say, Jay Ward original production cels are very rare.

@tiggersboy 11 ай бұрын

I went to a “Night With Chuck Jones” event many years ago and he said that he and his fellow animators used to line the floors with the cels after they were finished with them. They would then proceed to get a running start and “surf” on them. A kind of slip and slide without water. They figured they were worthless so why not have some fun.

As the events are described in the narration, this episode of "Dudley Doright" was never banned. The copyright owners decided to voluntarily stop broadcasting the cartoon. No court forced them to do that, and they could have resumed the broadcasts, or made more episodes with the bear if they chose. The Forest Service had not taken Jay Ward Productions to court. My guess is that they didn't because they expected that they would lose. Parodies are protected in the law. They may not like that a cartoon bear is starting fires, but that is probably not enough to win a lawsuit. The cartoon doesn't look like trademark infringement to me.

@elisaastorino2881 Why! Why! That's racist!....or Italianist. Our neighbors were from the "Old country". When they built the house Mr. Porchetti had two 250-gallon wooden casks built into it. Of course it was brick! Whatsamatta U? Mrs. Porchetti was like my extra grandmother. Things were great until I went over when I was about 4. I had been there many times with dad, and Mr. Porchetti always gave dad a glass of wine. Anyhow, I came home hammered. Mom was not amused, but they had always been such good friends that Mr. Porchetti got most of the flak. He said that all their kids had grown up drinking wine, I should have some. I wasn't allowed to go over unaccompanied anymore.

My favorite is the first appearance of Tweety Bird in "A Tale of Two Kitties" with "Babbet and Catstello" Babbet pushes Catstello up a telephone pole to get Tweety, then demands.. "Now give me the bird! GIVE ..ME..THE BIRD!!!" To which the acrophobic Catstello mutters... " Ohhh.if the Hayes Commission (censors) would only let me... I'd 'give him the Bird' alright!" Classic!

Smokey the Bear was a much loved icon of the day. His popularity is backed up by his longevity. I think the right decision was made for that time. Smokey had a huge following among Scouts and all kids of that era. It would have been hurtful to the young to see their hero disrespected. Now that we are well beyond the Smokey the Bear campaign, I see no harm in the satire other than there will always be someone who will be inspired to set fires one way or another. That should never be glorified.

Luckily we (my brother and I) were not raised in a way that made us as thin skinned as most people seem to be today. I can only speak for myself, I knew the difference between a cartoon character that was written for humor and a public awareness campaign hero and was not offended by this type of content. Possibly it contributed to my daily use of sarcasm. : ) We learned not every comment or action should be taken personally. I hold many things sacred, but can laugh at any of them taken in vain humorously. Also, aspiring arsonists and malcontents could develop their craft even while watching Mr. Rogers!

Just to clarify regarding the show's multiple titles: When Rocky and Bullwinkle was first broadcast in 1959, it was titled The Rocky Show. The name was changed to The Bullwinkle Show, and opening and closing titles revised to reflect this, when the program switched from ABC to NBC in 1961. It remained The Bullwinkle Show through the rest of its original broadcast run, and then into syndication. Although the principal segments of the show were always titled 'The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle", the current 'The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends" branding for the full series first appeared with the VHS release in 1991 - this branding was then carried over to the DVD releases.

My dad was a college professor and he just loved the old cartoons.

I remember Dudley Do-Right up to the early 1980s it was still on TV. There was an afternoon cartoon program that featured Dudley Do-Right, Catch that Pigeon, the Great Race, and that evil madame and the little guy from the Rockey & Bullwinkle show. I also remember watching some Rockey & Bullwinkle (especially Whatsamatta U), Flintstones and Wait 'til your Father Gets Home (the girl sliding down the banister at the beginning).

That show was an instant hit with me and all my friends in 1959 and for me it continued. My daughters caught a few shows when they got me the boxed set for Christmas along with a Bullwinkle Wassamadda U. Sweatshirt 30 years ago . I still have both though the shirt is too small now that I'm a sedentary 74.

You forgot Bullwinkle as Mr. Know it all.

My favorite episode when when he was trying to open a jar of jelly. At then end he confessed that he couldn't open it because it was jam.

One of the best shows ever. I never missed an episode and loved Stokey The Bear as well as all the other characters. I'd like to have a full set of all the shows on DVD's. I loved when Bullwinkle did Poet's Corner and recited "Under the spreading Chestnut tree"....It was so funny The show was well written and so clever. Loved MAD Magazine too.

... the village smithy stands. ... the muscles of his brawny arms are strong as rubber bands! Rocky ... "iron bands!" Bullwinkle: "rubber bands ... " *pulls his flabby biceps till it jiggles*

@@gretchenpritchard4778 exactly - Thank you for your response. As a kid, my family stopped at a restaurant where a copy of the Granger picture of The Village Blacksmith was on display. While I was standing there looking at the picture, my dad started to recite Wadsworth's The Village Blacksmith. Just a few days later it was on the R & B Show. Thanks again!

It looks like Stokey has been busy lately in Canada.

Back in the day, Smokey the bear was big time with his slogan of "Only you can prevent forest fires". In reality Smokey, who was originally an orphaned bear due to a forest fire, was a public service reminder to prevent forest fires but became so commercialized it lost most of it's impact. Years later there was Woodsy the Owl who was another character and the second attempt by the national forest service to prevent fires and also I believe had the slogan of "Give a hoot, don't pollute". This time Woodsy was prevented from becoming too commercialized but over time fizzled out. I believe I had a children's book about Smokey way back but it is now lost through time.

For me Bullwinkle, Dudley, Peabody and Sherman etc were the best cartoons ever created.

I watched these cartoons too as a kid growing up in the 60s, loved them then and still love them, but Bugs Bunny (from the 1940s) will always be #1 with me.
