The Valuable part of this episode . . .

[tadpole-596-918256 · 7/10 · 13 November 2023]

. . . is the segment titled HOW TO COOK A TURKEY. Statistics prove that each year more Americans bite the dust due to gobbler roasting mishaps than the actual number of T-birds offed. How could this be? Just do the math. While turkeys are perishing one-at-a-time, exploding pressure cookers and gas ovens--as depicted here--frequently snuff out the populations of entire apartment buildings crammed with Thanksgiving visitors. Naturally, these sort of Crimes against Humanity will prompt the well-informed chef to "Cook the turkey's goose" with a justly deserved sense of vengeance and malice aforethought, as Bullwinkle succinctly sums up.

It's more than a coincidence that Pot-Sill-Mania . . .

. . . and Pale-Stein both begin with the letter "P." During Jet Fuel Saga Parts 29 and 30, titled THE PEN-PALS or ROCK HOCKEY ROCKY/THE FRIGHT-SEEING TRIP or VISIT TO A SMALL PANIC, the Pot-Sill Maniacs misinform their children just as the Pale-Stein-Errs do in Real Life right now. Pot-Sill Tykes are indoctrinated with an Evil version of the ABC's: Assassination, Bomb-throwing and Conspiracy! Sound familiar? This explains why there is no such thing as an "innocent" Pot-Sill-Maniac, just as there are no untainted Pale-Stein-Errs. As pictured here, the former are dead ringers for World War Two's Prussian CC Camp thugs, not unlike the war criminals dominating this week's television news.

Things Keep Getting Worse

[Hitchcoc · 7/10 · 8 November 2014]

The boys are in prison because in Pottsylvania nobody is nice. They actually aspire to nastiness and even educate their children to be bad people. Since Bullwinkle is still the focus of Boris, the spy pretends to be a lawyer and gets them out. They also release all the people on the Andalusia. The Fairy Tale involves Cinderella who really isn't put upon but wants to turn her frumpy self into a princess. The fairy godmother agrees but makes her sell pots and pans. The prince is an idiot and is picked out as her customer. They are both selfish and self centered. Peabody goes to see Alfred Nobel who is having trouble with the invention of dynamite. A relatively normal episode.
