Certainly the most revealing aspect of this Bullwinkle . . .

. . . Show episode is its expose on swimwear of the 1960's. During the Mr. Know-It-All segment--HOW TO TEACH A MEAN BULLY A LESSON AT THE BEACH--Fatal Natasha is clad in a modest one-piece bathing suit, which nevertheless reveals that she has had bosom reduction surgery since Seasons #1 and #2. America's favorite moose, on the other hand, sports a pink and white horizontally striped singlet-style swimsuit that would put any sort of Speed-Oh sea-front attire to shame. These are definitely not the racy sort of decadent beach duds plaguing Mankind during the 1950's. Bikinis, monocle-keen-knees and bare mammalian paraphernalia are nowhere in sight here.

High Hat

The boys continue their quest for the Kirward Derby as Boris and Fearless Leader circumvent all efforts. In the special features, Aesop and Son present "The Robin, the Pelican, and the Angleworm." Peabody's Improbable History has he and Sherman visiting "Casanova."

Maybe "the early bird actually DOES get the worm . . . "

. . . but is this really a desirable outcome? Many of us are more of night owls than early birds. I never heard of an owl so hard up for food that it had to resort to pecking worms, slugs, grubs, ants or spiders out of the ground and grass. My understanding is that owls dine on all sorts of tangy game meat; their slogan could be "We've got the meats!" at least in the avian universe. This Bullwinkle Show's entry for Aesop and son--THE ROBIN, THE PELICAN AND THE ANGLEWORM--does NOT feature a member of the owl clan. That's why most viewers will find this film to be in very poor taste. As Mr. Dunn wrote, "Ask not for whom the worm turns: it peels for you."
