Fractured Fairy Tales - Rapunzel
Wednesday, December 12th, 2007
The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show was my favorite cartoon shows, period. Nothing came close to the imagination of Jay Ward and it wasn’t just one cartoon, it had segments like a variety show: Rocky and Bullwinkle, Fractured Fairy Tails, Aesop & Son, Borris and Natasha, Dudley Do-Right, Peabody’s Improbable History, Mr. Know-It-All, and more.
This was incredible stuff in its time but amazingly, it stands up beautifully. Scan around YouTube for more of these gems, you won’t be disappointed.
This was entertaining, and the Fisherman and the Wishes was fantastic. Funny how I never got into Rocky and Bullwinkle style cartoons when I was a kid but now I love them.
Mike: many kids didn’t get into this stuff as it’s highly verbal and the competition was Warner Brothers (road runner, et al) and later, Hanna Barbera (flintstones). Actually all of those came later, the early competition was Betty Boop (max fliesher).
Anyway, it’s great stuff and trolling youtube could easily kill an hour or more.
