    16 September 1962 - LAST ORIGINAL ROCKY & BULLWINKLE SHOW IS ARED ON NBC.

    The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends (commonly referred to
    as simply Rocky and Bullwinkle) was an American animated television
    series that originally aired from November 19, 1959, to June 27, 1964,
    on the ABC and NBC television networks.

    The current blanket title was imposed for home video releases more than
    40 years after the series originally aired and was never used when the
    show was televised; television airings of the show were broadcast under
    the titles of Rocky and His Friends from 1959 to 1961 (and again in
    Canada in 1963), The Bullwinkle Show from 1961 to 1964, and The Rocky
    and Bullwinkle Show (or The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle) in
    syndication.

    Produced by Jay Ward Productions, the series is structured as a variety
    show, with the main feature being the serialized adventures of the two
    title characters, the anthropomorphic flying squirrel Rocket J.
    ("Rocky") Squirrel and moose Bullwinkle J. Moose. The main antagonists
    in most of their adventures are the two Russian-like spies Boris Badenov
    and Natasha Fatale, both working for the Nazi-like dictator Fearless
    Leader. Supporting segments include "Dudley Do-Right" (a parody of
    old-time melodrama), "Peabody's Improbable History" (a dog named Mr.
    Peabody and his boy Sherman traveling through time), and "Fractured
    Fairy Tales" (classic fairy tales retold in comic fashion), among
    others.

    SIDE NOTE: Until Micro$not made it impossible to change the log-on
    sounds tha Windows makes when booting up my opening sound byte was
    Boris Badenov intoing "Foolproof, yes. Idiot proof, nooooo" - UDD
