Walt Disney was furious when he saw this cartoon and he wanted to sue Jay Ward. It took a while for his lawyers to convince him that that was a bad idea.
Sure he was. That film was groundbreaking. First full length animation film. Pretty impressive. And Walt was a serious guy when it came to his characters. Sure he created and originally voiced Mickey, but his real love was animating those feature-length films in the late 30s and 40s. I love the slap De Santis got from Disney a couple days ago. I watched Rocky and Bullwinkle as a kid and thought these were hilarious! But I can see why Walt Disney didn't. Not much of a sense of parody.
("Sgt.J."). "Yes! The bowl of cereal... How did I, Forget That." Lol. Hey, Evan The Russian Spies were Funny. "Boris and Natasha." I, May try. And, Watch the Rest of these? ✌️🕊️.
They also used other voice actors for some episodes, including this one. IMDB credits Daws Butler here, and the voice does sound the same as Hokey Wolf.
@@oneeyedman99 Butler was a regular on Fractured Fairy Tales. However, since Rocky and Bullwinkle were sponsored by General Mills, and Butler was also starring in Hanna Barbera shows that were sponsored by Kellogg's, he chose to remain uncredited in the latter show after its first season.
The X Y and Z coupons make fun of the admission tickets you needed to get on certain rides at Disneyland before this was discontinued in the 1980s for a general admission fee. It's where the term "E-Ticket" comes from.
Great Memories! Also: Rocky, Bullwinkle, Natasha, Boris, Mr Peaboby and his boy Sherman, and let's not forget Gidney and Cloid the Moonmen. Ah, yes. Hilariously Great Memories!😂❤
Whoa..the Moon Men!! I had forgotten about those two. Thanks for mentioning them. I do recall Chauncey and Edgar, which I think inspired Jim Henson's two old timers in the balcony routine.
In case you may not have noticed, the voice of the prince in this cartoon is Daws Butler's impression of Phil Silvers' Sgt. Bilko character, which he would also use for the Hanna-Barbera character Hokey Wolf.
Boy has television declined since then. These were works of genius, and arguably one of the best shows in the history of television. Bring back Rocky and Bullwinkle, Fracture Fairy Tales, Boris and Natasha!
This episode was banned when it came out originally due because it was based on Walt Disney. This is probably one of the hardest episodes to find. It was definitely made to make fun of Walt Disney and Disneyland

@@waynejones205 so you’d rather they not have poc and women as leads, cut problematic stuff from past films, and stand up for marginalized people? Or what does “woke” mean?
Yeah it’s Walt Disney and that is why fractured fairy tales are still good in this modern age because they know how to use satire jokes without hurting anyone.
grew up with the VHS's by Beuna Vista of the Rocky and Bullwinkle series, out of all of the shorts, this was one of my favorites, I now appreciate it more for Vincent Prices work
i recall delighting in this series when I was a child in the '60s. i might have missed the resemblance but i saw his face every Sunday night so...I don't remember any hype but kids weren't clued in like they are now
Walt's issue was the lettered tickets. How long since you heard reference to an E ticket ride? And as Yogurt declared that the real money is in merchandising.
So glad this episode made it onto the DVD box sets! I had no idea the jabs involved in this episode (because honestly this character design has been used a lot in this show) But once I learned about the whole Walt Disney spoof in this specific episode (they've made other references to WD) this is both geunius and terrifying in how accurate it is... Right down to attempting murder on competition...
1984. Read the book. But the author was ahead of his time. Everything that is possible to voice command, is keeping track of what you say. Just test it out….
Have the opening and closing credits been redone? I remember a giant book falling on the toe of someone who was trying to open it, and the book snapping shut on his nose.
i would like to know on if you might have the Fractured Fairy Tales cartoon the Frog Prince and should you do then could you please Post it here on youtube,
Classic. I grew up watching reruns of this in the early 90s. I never got that this was mocking Disney until now. I always thought the joke was just how the story always takes a sharp turn to be something different. And the whole thing wasn't dependent on topical humor of the time, so it had a much longer staying power. Like how Looney Toons can seem horribly dated because its humor was based on Hollywood and current events from the 40s.
Taran was never known because he wasn't even born yet until either in 1964 (according to the release of the book) or 1985 (according to the release of the movie. If that fractured fairy tales was released somewhere in the 1980s, and Taran heard about this, he would come in there and kill that money grabbing prince.
Walt Disney was furious when he saw this cartoon and he wanted to sue Jay Ward. It took a while for his lawyers to convince him that that was a bad idea.

How so? Sleeping Beauty is a fairy tale from hundreds of years ago. They don't own it.
"Doze Doll Does Wiz Biz" slays me every time. (A parody of show biz trade paper slang)
It doesn’t shock me at all that these are better than ANYTHING on TV today.
I am so happy this is being enjoyed lately by new fans of Rocky and Bullwinkle
I terribly miss Fractured Fairy Tales and many of the Jay Ward cartoons.
Yup. They came on with rocky and bull Winkle 👍
@@user-kp1pz6zv8y ..💀..Yup.., Very "otherworldly"..even, kinda surreal..ya know..?!
@@Maldoror200 Radical for the times.
The opening intro fairy lady book slam is a classic icon.
I really wish I would have had a bowl of cereal while I was watching this, just like when I was a kid. Good memories.
I literally paused it and went and made a bowl to watch these.. I’ll take a bite for you 😇
Cereal and Saturday morning cartoons: two things that the do-gooders ruined in the early 70s.
What? Tell that to Ron DeSantis..., !!!
("Sgt.J."). "Yes! The bowl of cereal... How did I, Forget That." Lol. Hey, Evan The Russian Spies were Funny. "Boris and Natasha." I, May try. And, Watch the Rest of these? ✌️🕊️.
Lol.... actually so did I! ❤
The voice talents of June Foray, Paul Frees and Bill Scott created a world of humor for Jay Ward's show. Edward Everett Horton was the narrator.
I believe Edward Everett Horton Lane is, paradoxically, the shortest street in Los Angeles.
Paul Frees was a master of mimicry.
They also used other voice actors for some episodes, including this one. IMDB credits Daws Butler here, and the voice does sound the same as Hokey Wolf.

Daws voiced the prince.
I loved this as a kid in the mid to late 70s. My mom always laughed at these. I wouldn't get it and she'd explain it sometimes.
This is one fractured tale that caused a stir, but I'm glad it was posted here. Loved these tales from years ago and enjoying them again now. Joe S
My favorite!! “…the city makes us do it!”🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much for taking me back in time with these timeless cartoons !.
love these too. interesting to look at them from adult perspective
The vocalizations are delicious. I remember trying to copy them.
Great childhood memories! Thanks for posting.

Definitely taking the Mickey outta Walt with a spot-on caricature. Glad it didn’t reach the courts as Mouse v Moose and Squirrel.

Before there were the Moonenites, there were the Moonmen.
Talk about a walk down memory lane. Love it, thanks for bringing these back to life.

Man, as soon as I heard that theme song it took me way to when I was a kid in the 60’s watching this on Sunday morning. 🙂

And the prince actually IS a caricature of Walt Disney.
And he was extremely angry about it

These were hilarious-satire for kids. A shame most of today's kids wouldn't get it.
Walt has been dead for a while now. Kids have their own funny.
Sadly, most of today's kids wouldn't get why firemen wear red suspenders.
I used to watch and enjoy them as I kid
They'd ask who was "Walt"?
Kids didn't get it then, either.
Most cartoons are like that.
I have not seen this in a dog's age. Thanks for posting! :-))
I remember these hahaha.
Early Saturday mornings used to watch them all the time.
“They don’t make broad swords...like they USE to...”
Suhword 😂
I love ❤️ fractured fairy tales
I remember seeing this when I would watch Bullwinkle and Rocky. It's as great today as it was back then
Ironically, when Rocky and Bullwinkle came out on VHS, it was distributed by Buena Vista (Disney).
Disney only own the home video distribution rights to the show and nothing more
Thanks! This takes me back. Bugs Bunny is always my favorite but I do love these. It's a shame the world is so "fractured" for real these days.
Note the prince's resemblance to a certain animation and theme park entrepreneur...
which?
@@OneWeirdDude Walt Disney
Who just decides to build a Sleeping Beauty castle attraction
Yeah it’s Walt Disney and that is why fractured fairy tales are still good in this modern age because they know how to use satire jokes without hurting anyone.
I’d never seen this before but it was in one of my English professors lectures, these are awesome!
Fractured Fairy Tales was great, I remember these very well, would come on during Rocky and Bullwinkle
grew up with the VHS's by Beuna Vista of the Rocky and Bullwinkle series, out of all of the shorts, this was one of my favorites, I now appreciate it more for Vincent Prices work
Born in 1960 I remember these, with Tennessee tuxedo, Bullwinkle. Thank you.
i recall delighting in this series when I was a child in the '60s. i might have missed the resemblance but i saw his face every Sunday night so...I don't remember any hype but kids weren't clued in like they are now
I remember the days when something really spectacular was referred to as an E ticket ride
Hard to believe these cartoons were only about five minutes long. As a boy,these cartoons felt like major motion pictures.
"I just wanted to see if I could make it in showbiz" :-D
OMG. I haven't seen one of these since I was a small child. I'm a giddy .
Classic Tales.
Thank You. 🥰🥰🥰
I ❤ed these cartoons when I was a kid...got the humour and message then and my kids got it too all those years ago 😊
I loved this great memories.
Very funny! 😂😂😂I loved this!
One of my favorite cartoons ❤️👍❤️❤️👍👍👍
Just Gold. Pure silly gold.
Walt's issue was the lettered tickets. How long since you heard reference to an E ticket ride? And as Yogurt declared that the real money is in merchandising.
Moichendizing!
My father made waffles for us when this show came on.
That guy was the Snagglepuss in disguise
This and mad magazine was my favorite. Rocky and bullwinkle hour was my favorite...
So glad this episode made it onto the DVD box sets! I had no idea the jabs involved in this episode (because honestly this character design has been used a lot in this show)

Shrek like humor before Shrek! These were so funny when I was a kid!
But without the disgusting sexual innuendo 😂
I never saw this one. Wonderful!
Now that's a show I've not seen in a long long time
Thank you Obie Wan
I'm 72 and remember this cartoon, so funny !
Brilliant satire.
I just wanted to see if I could make it into Show Business priceless.
that's a total fracture of a fairy tale, indeed🤣
The satire and content of this is phenom!!! I loved it as a kid but it freakin kills me now 😂😂😂😂thank you!!🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰🥰
("Sgt.J."). Wow! Those were on the Bullwinkle Show. "Abc Network." U.s.a. I, Kinda miss that show. I, Think i would still laugh at some of those.😅. 😊
Well, they didn't call these "fractured" fairy tales for nothing.
"This Sleeping Beauty cowboy lasso" 😂
What you mean?
I think my phone is listening to my conversations. I just had a conversation about these “twisted fairy tales” with my husband a few days ago. 😂

@@j.haulum2444
Oh, I’m aware. Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut is another one fully ahead of its time. Both are very relevant today.
Daws Butler and June Foray with two voices for her on this one. the prince is a caricature of Walt Disney.
Basically it's a riff on consumerism and exploitation.
I remember this from back when I was just a kid.
I remembered this! But I haven"t heard about it for so long
I showed Fractured Fairy Tales to my 8th graders. They are great to begin cognitive dissonance.
i love these fractured fairy tales there is one called three ugly sisters and invisible prince.
oohhh i never watched this cartoons!!!are so entertaining👸🤴💍
I'm not really a wicked fairy, I'm just wicked.
The original Perrault was terrifying. Talk about mother-in-laws!!!
Have the opening and closing credits been redone? I remember a giant book falling on the toe of someone who was trying to open it, and the book snapping shut on his nose.
I LOVE Dungeons Land some people come to stay here for a LONG LONG Time.
Fractured Fairy Tales was always good. But Commander McBragg was genius.
i would like to know on if you might have the Fractured Fairy Tales cartoon the Frog Prince and should you do then could you please Post it here on youtube,
Fabulous!
How would the comic book thing work?
The Prince sounds like Sgt. Bilko.
As kids, we didn't get the satire. Originally "Rocky and His Friends" was prime time and enjoyed by adults.
Weren't these part of the Rocky and Bullwinkle show?
What the heck is up with his face at 0:35? Those pointy teeth, the spider eyes? Wow.
It ages me that I recall "E ticket rides." As referenced.
And don't forget Dudley Do-right, Nell and my favorite, Nell's father!
These shows predicted the future
Oh, so this was the notorious "hog-flogger" episode...
This is giving Walt Disney and from the comments, I read it right.
making the prince look like Walt Disney and sound like Srg. Bilko may have been Jay Ward's greatest achievement. @jennynicholson
you have to be older to get these - even the old Looney tunes

Shouldn't Bad Witchy be Maleficent????
I think that's only on Disney. I'm not sure but maybe in the original version of the story the wicked fairy probably was never named.
Who were the voice actors ? They all sounded familiar .
Daws Butler and June Foray, they were in a lot of cartoons
