. . . is called MR. KNOW-IT-ALL: THE MOST ECONOMICAL FORM OF TRANSPORTATION--HITCHHIKING. Bullwinkle J. Moose has run-ins with crazed motorists, trains and cops during his 90 seconds of thumbing. These put me in mind of stories from my father, who lived during the 1900's, aka The Golden Century of Hitchhiking. He says he was once picked up by a couple dudes claiming to be "pot police" in the middle of a cold January night near Lumber-ton, NC. It was the only time in his life he held a reefer, he claims, as the guys in front passed their weed to him in the back seat every so often. Little did they know that Dad never drank anything as strong as Coke or coffee. Later that day a van of guys ran my father up the East Coast, with one of them displaying the hunting knife with which he planned to gut any lawmen who tried to stop this vehicle. That was the day before the University of Iowa Marching Band bus gave Dad a lift, but I may be digressing.

Cheesy!!

Rocky and Bullwinkle are beset by a plethora of six foot metal munching mice. They find themselves in an old mansion where the creatures are everywhere. These things have been consuming all the steel in the world, and, of course, people's TV antennas. Of course, they have been commandeered by "The Big Cheese," played by you know who. Entertaining episodes. Other features are Aesop's "The Goldfish and the Bear," where a bear is just trying to have something to eat. And Peabody takes us to Bunker Hill where the "whites of their eyes" comes into play.

There are many speaking parts during . . .

. . . the five and a half minute running time of THE GOLDFISH AND THE BEAR. Mr. Butler essays both the role of the bear and that of Aesop, Jr. Show runner Bill Scott, aka Bullwinkle J. Moose, goes Butler one better, performing a trio of parts: Fox, Pelican and Eagle. On the other hand, Charles Wriggles is confined to the sole role of Aesop. However, some may argue that Aesop doubles as the narrator of this and his other fables. Be that as it may, the goldfish is too busy thwarting the bear's chance to earn his stew to waste his breath blubbering any lines. He proves himself to be something of an amphibian, lugging the bear AND his phone booth enclosure into his home pond.

The main purpose the writers of this allegory . . .

, , , have in mind with "The Monstrous Mechanical Metal-Munching Moon Mice Mystery" is to urge American leaders to harden our TV infrastructure. WINDOW PAINS and DOOM IN THE ROOM begin to reveal the nefarious plot by enemies lacking quality television programming to take down America's superior TV content. Boris Bad-Enough explicitly adopts a rat suit to carry out his region's pernicious plan to starve U. S. Citizens of their inalienable right to enjoy Gun-Smoke, Wagon Train, Dragnet, The Virginian, Bonanza, The Tonight Show, Branded and Car 54 Where Are You. Without such current and developing shows as Bewitched, My Mother the Car, F-Troop, Gilligan's Island, Hogan's Heroes, Mr. Ed, Leave it to Beaver, the Honeymooners, I Dream of Jeanie, Yogi Bear, the Flintstones, the Jet-sons, Time Tunnel, Star Trek, Batman, Lassie, He-Haw, Petticoat Junction and The Lone Ranger, how could anyone expect America to survive?
