Whether you're indulging in nostalgia for the cartoons of your youth or introducing your kids to Rocky & Bullwinkle for the first time, Volume 1 of the famous moose and squirrel's animated adventures is a sublime example of irreverent family entertainment. (It's been rated "Fun-E: Viewer Discretion Unnecessary.") The classic creations of Jay Ward Productions, Rocky & Bullwinkle packed more punch lines into a one-hour show than most cartoons manage in seven minutes, and this video leaps from the starting gate with a typically loony escapade. The snidely villains Boris and Natasha are scheming to retrieve "the Treasure of Monte Zoom" from the bottom of Lake Sal-de-Bain by pulling the plug on the lake's drainpipe! It's up to Rocky & Bullwinkle to arrive in ("Ta-da!") the nick of time--but not before the furry heroes (and the great narrator Paul Frees) serve up a barrage of vaudevillian wordplay that's as clever as it is ludicrous. (One of the show's great strengths was its self-deprecating humor; the writers knew how silly they were being, and were clearly having the time of their lives.)
Also included: Using the "Wayback Machine," Mr. Peabody and Sherman pay a visit to Robinson Crusoe, circa 1686; Bullwinkle tries his hand at poetry, and as "Mr. Know-It-All" provides instruction on how to sneak into movies; a classic segment of "Fractured Fairy Tales" (narrated by the great character actor Edward Everett Horton); and an episode of "Dudley Do-Right" in which Snidely Whiplash masterminds an ill-fated fur-smuggling scheme.
The animation is impossibly crude, but it hardly matters: The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle are best enjoyed for the one-liners and throwaway gags that are likely to entertain grown-ups even more than kids. The Marx Brothers would be hard pressed to deliver this much goofy fun. --Jeff Shannon

Ya gotta love Rocky and Bullwinkle! In Volume 1, Rocky and Bullwinkle try to stop Boris and Natasha from getting the treasure of Monte Zoom. In Fractured Fairy Tales, the Wolf tries to stop eating Ridding Hoods cold turkey. Mr. Peabody finds Robinson Crusoe not as alone as he would like. Dudley Do-Right goes under cover. Wonderful volume!

The adventures of Rocket J. Squirrel come and go on the TV. But if you have them on tape you can watch them any time. Your friends and neighbors will prefer these to watching your vacation films.
Unlike the movies Dudley Do-Right (1999) ASIN: B00004RFB2, you will find that Nell has an unnatural attraction to Dudley's horse. Or she just prefers intelligence.
An outstanding part of this series is the narrator, William Conrad who was the original Marshall Matt Dillon on ... Read More

I have the complete set and can't recommend it enough. These are too good to pass up for any fan of the show.
This one contains The Treasure of Monte Zoom, with more puns than you can shake a stick at. That alone is worth the price, but it wouldn't be the same without the shorts breaking up the episodes. There's Fractured Fairy Tales doing Little Red Riding Hood, Poetry time on Bullwinkle's Corner, Mr. Peabody and Sherman visit Robin Crusoe, and Dudley goes undercover to catch Snidely.

This volume was hysterical..Bullwinkle and Rocky have fun with the old cliche.."the heros arrive in -ta daaa- the nick of time" and other bad puns sure to make you roll your eyes and chuckle. Also contains Fractured Fairy Tales where the wolf has pledged not to eat Little Red Riding Hood. And despite his seemingly dastardly deeds, Dudley Do-Right can't even be kicked out of the RCMP. This is a great episode to own! You'll watch it again and again.

After the advent of great cartoons like Ren & Stimpy and Rocko's Modern Life, old cartoons such as Bullwinkle and Rocky were virtually forgotten. However, thanks to the release of their episodes on videotape, the classic exploits of the world's most famous moose and squirrel are once again available. While the humor existed in a period of time before foul humor was popular, The Rocky and Bullwinkle show is able to send viewers into fits of laughter based solely on the merits of their bad puns and ...
