Does anyone else remember "Fractured Fairy Tales"?



You have to be of a certain age.  YouTube has dozens of them.   (They also have Peabody and Sherman.)

With a tip of the blogging hat to Neatorama.

  2. I LOVED everything on the Rocky & Bullwinkle show ~ but especially "Fractured Fairy Tales"! I used to watch them with my Dad all the time! Hubby and I now have them on DVD ~ always a fun diversion from "real" news. And I always wanted a "Way-back Machine" of my own!!

  3. I note that the spelling of the header for the video is also fractured...should be "Pinocchio"

    1. The "basket of goodies" joke even predates Fractured Fairy Tales:
