Trivia

This short was written by original Jay Ward writer Bill Scott as part of a revived Bullwinkle series in 1970, but the series never went forward. It was eventually made into a theatrical short film as a tribute to Jay Ward and Bill Scott (now deceased) and was released with the live action Dudley Do-Right.

this short was so true to the Fractured Fairy Tales we saw as a kid that one of the people who saw it with me was sure that it was actually from the 60's, adn they had seen it as a kid.
