BULLWINKLE SHOW, THE: GOOF GAS ATTACK (TV)

Summary

One in this animated series about two friends -- a gormless moose named Bullwinkle and an intelligent flying squirrel named Rocky -- and their frequent encounters with their arch enemies, Soviet spies Boris Badenov and Natasha. In this episode, Rocky and Bullwinkle battle against a new weapon called goof gas, which turns its victims into morons. Unfortunately, the duo is sprayed with the product, causing Rocky's brains to turn to mush; Bullwinkle is unaffected by the spray since he is naturally a gormless creature. Other highlights of this program include the following segments: Mr. Know It All demonstrates how to interview a scientist who is working on a top secret project; in "Dudley Do-Right of the Mounties," Dudley is instructed to keep an eye on Snydley Whiplash while a top secret government project is being completed; in "Fractured Fairy Tales," a plethora of witches causes havoc for a frog who only wishes to be left alone on his lily pad; and in "Bullwinkle's Corner," the famous moose reads a poem entitled "The Village Blacksmith." Includes commercials. This is a black-and-white copy of a color telecast.
