      Getting up Saturday morning and watching the Rock & Bullwinkle Show in my pajamas.
      Eating cereal and looking at and studying the caricatures of Rocky & Bullwinkle on the box.
      Reading Rocky & Bullwinkle comic books.

      I can not understand that no cable channel, even those centered on cartoons, do not play these extremely intelligent, witty cartoon series! Many of the gags were so sophisticated puns or based on their current events, they went over kids heads, and only got the jokes years later! Is it a copyright problem, or something else preventing Rocky & Bullwinkle (and friends) to be seen again on any network?

    I never watched Dudley-do-Right as a kid but I always loved Rocky & Bullwinkle. From a child's perspective (of the 60's and 70's) Saturday morning was THE best day of the week because it was the only day at that time cartoons were aired on TV. There were no VCR 's or other methods to record such programming. If you wanted to watch a program you had to be there at that specific time to view your show and it was a wonderful time to be alive :)

    As a small child, we lived in Glendale, CA. Dad was good friends with a few bit part actors and one day Dorothy Haney of La Cresenta was typing up a script for Bill Scott - a good friend of hers. She said, hey Charlie, tell me what you think of this new cartoon Bill's doing. It's called "Rocky and His Friends" about a moose and a squirrel." As she read away, Dad cracked up. And of course so did the world from then on. One cool thing I remember is that Dorothy's daughter Dawn had a plaster statue of Dudley Doright on his horse that was used by the animators as a model. Too cool. Hope she still has it!

      Supposedly June and Bill went on Johnny Carson. It was mentioned during an interview with Bob Newhart to promote his work on the "new" Disney animated film "The Rescuers". No idea when it happened but I'd guess around the time this video was broadcast. Johnny described having a screen up for a cartoon and the two doing their lines live. Not sure if Carson really got it as he described Rocky as a beaver.

She not only worked for Jay Ward, but for Looney Tunes, Hannah-Barbara, Disney and just about every animator. Mel Blanc is called (rightfully so) a genius, but I don't think June is any less so.
