The Bullwinkle Show Episode Rating Graph

Rocky and Bullwinkle accidentally discover a new and amazing rocket fuel while baking Grandma Bullwinkle’s recipe for mooseberry-flavored fudge cake—an explosive discovery which propels them on a round-trip adventure to the Moon. Bullwinkle is immediately appointed "Director of Guided Moosles.”

The long-haired heroine lets her hair down.

Bullwinkle recites Robert Louis Stevenson's poem "The Swing".

The origins of Mr. Peabody and the WABAC machine: Mr. Peabody finds Sherman in the street being beaten up by some bigger boys. At first, he doesn't think that he's the right sort of boy- but when he sees how he is treated in the orphanage, Peabody decides to adopt him. At first, there's a problem when they won't let a dog adopt a boy- but he goes to court, and the judge decides that if a boy can have a dog, then a dog can have a boy! Sherman comes to live with Mr. Peabody, who builds him the Wayback Machine in order to keep him busy. They go back in time to Rome, and then to see Ben Franklin.

Because the rocket fuel recipe had been torn apart in the explosion, Bullwinkle knows how much but not what of, so he and Rocky set to work in their government laboratory, while at universities all over the country, cake baking is being added to the scientific curriculum. Meanwhile, after failing in an attempt to time-bomb the Moose, Boris and Natasha do what any intelligent, self-sufficient spy with real initiative would do: They wait for instructions!

Those little green men holding extremely ominous-looking weapons aren't congressmen, as Bullwinkle first surmises--they're Gidney and Cloyd, reluctant visitors from the moon, here to keep an invasion of earth tourists from cluttering up their homeland. Indeed, just to prepare for their visit, the two have had to practice dodging traffic, listening to jukeboxes, filling out forms, and breathing smog! Meanwhile, Boris and Natasha, twelve stories up, with a heavy safe as our heroes stroll by below, finally receive orders from headquarters: KILL MOOSE!

The scrooch gun has frozen Bullwinkle solid, and Cloyd and Gidney start off with their moosesicle as a trophy of their visit to a small planet, but Boris comes to in time to con them into leaving Moose for him, while they get Squirrel, the brains of the operation. While the moon men are telling Rocky they can't remember if they've scrooched Bullwinkle for eight hours or eight years...WHISK! Eight hours later, Bullwinkle thaws out in Boris's laboratory, where every word he says is monitored in another country by a faraway band of ominous spies.

A little fisherman goes out to fish and nets a mermaid. After the man gives in to her pleas to be let go, the mermaid is willing to grant him wishes for his kindness. After she mends his net, he tells his wife about it all. The fisherman's wife asks him to ask the mermaid for a new apron. This then snowballs into grander wishes till his wife attains Queen-like status. Overcome with power, she demands that her husband wish her to be a goddess. Upon meeting the mermaid again, she asks if he himself has any wish of his own. His one wish is that his wife be happy. His last wish spent, he returns to his ordinary little home and lives happily ever after.

Every move the moose makes is duplicated in the faraway spy lab. Bullwinkle cooks up some tasty chocolate pan dowdy that blows up when the spies try it, and when Rocky smells the delicious aroma, it leads him right to Bullwinkle, but Boris is ready with a helpful trapdoor that sends the plucky squirrel falling into another stew!

Rocky's blown away all right, out to sea in a leaky hot air balloon courtesy of Boris Badenov. Meanwhile, an anxious nation and two anxious moon men are searching for the missing moose, who's still baking away in Boris's secret laboratory. By going door-to-door to every house in the country, Gidney and Cloyd eventually turn up there, so Boris and Natasha quickly throw them a surprise party complete with knockout punch, while back out over the stormy seas, lightning strikes Rocky's balloon, sending it plunging.

Goldilocks learns a lesson about the downside of misusing other people's property.

Fortunately, Bullwinkle offers the wrong toast—"To crime!"—and Boris and Natasha, official bad guys that they are, are obliged to drink up, gulping down their own knockout punch; meanwhile, the flying squirrel is being used for target practice by the U. S. Navy, until quick-witted Rocky uses the smoke from the aircraft fire to spell out the phrase "U. S. Taxpayer" and, of course, the Navy needs every one of those that it can get. Soon Rocky finds Bullwinkle, and just as our heroes are about to leave with the moon men, a grateful U. S. government responds by arresting them!

Yes, the government agents who've arrested our heroes are waiting for two spies. If it's not Rocky and Bullwinkle, it must be those two funny-looking green guys, reasons Special Agent Iris T. Upthecreek, but when he tries to take the moon men into custody, he's scrooched...for a full fifty years, which creates a tiny problem until Rocket J. hits upon the idea of putting the scrooched agent on a pedestal, right in front of the National Security Building, while he slowly thaws. Meanwhile, the moon men have become media darlings, with pointed heads all the rage, and they're even given the keys to the city (they're delicious). Cloyd and Gidney respond to all this flattering attention by heading back to their spaceship for a little peace and quiet, but ensuring that same peace and quiet on the moon means keeping Grandma Moose's recipe out of earthling hands, so it looks as if our heroes are going to be forced to go lunar themselves.

A forgetful Giant enables Jack to escape by not remembering his famous saying.

Everything is out of hand in King Arthur's kingdom, a dragon is terrorizing the kingdom and all the knights are too weak and pathetic to fight the dragon and Mr. Peabody decides to use a new strategy. He uses Sherman's bubble gum.

Up and up they go, and then down and down: Cloyd and Gidney are out of fuel, or is that fudge cake? Because Boris and Natasha have absconded with their last fuel tank, the moon men have no choice but to tell Rocky the recipe, and they're just one ingredient short: mooseberry juice, which grows in only one place in the entire nation, and that hard-to-find spot just happens to be Rocky and Bullwinkle's hometown, *Frostbite Falls, Minnesota* (population twenty-three). Meanwhile, Boris and Natasha, those two creeps in the deep, board a midget submarine.

Boris has plenty of medals—for burning down orphanages, for kicking small dogs, for taking candy from babies—so why isn't he happier? He's forgotten something, he's certain, but can't remember what it is until he gets his orders: KILL MOOSE! So, of course, he and Natasha put the sub on autopilot, slip into breathing apparatus, and swim straight back to the U. S. of A. Meanwhile, our heroes are finding it tough to get to Frostbite Falls, so they head off to the nearest airfield to rent a cut-rate private plane, where they immediately find Ace Ricken-Boris, whose motto is *Fly Now, Pray Later.* Rocky wants to do some square business, but all Ace Ricken-Boris is offering are round trips for eighty-five cents per, which just happens to be all the money Rocky and Bullwinkle have. Is Ace really wild about flying them to Frostbite Falls, dollink, or is that vaguely familiar, vampy stewardess strapping our heroes into a flying casket?

A spell has been cast on the Beast and the only way out is to be kissed by a beauty.

Bullwinkle's version of this classic poem. Except the cat is a tiger!

Peabody and Sherman go back to the year 1824 and meet Franz Schubert. They decide to help him compose his latest musical masterpiece. But his piano is stolen by his next-door neighbor and he won't give it back.

The auto-controlled spy sub goes slightly out of control, blowing up an entire foreign port. Meanwhile, after fastening Rocky and Bullwinkle into one-way seatbelts, stewardess Natasha bails out, while Boris gleefully smashes instruments in the pilot's compartment. It looks like a smash landing ahead.

A last-second reconsideration of orders from headquarters (the message didn't say KILL MOOSE; it actually read DON'T KILL MOOSE) means Boris has to save Rocky and Bullwinkle, whose brilliant idea to retrieve the last mooseberry bush on Mooseberry Island (SWIM THE RIVER!) has one tiny flaw (Bullwinkle doesn't know how to swim!).

The Little Tailor kills seven flies with one blow! However, the townspeople mistake the flies for giants and The Little Tailor is given a task.

Bullwinkle recites the poem "Taffy." However, in the telling of the story, Boris (in the role of Taffy) begins to "bend and ad-lib" his parts. For example, instead of stealing "a piece of beef," Taffy steals a whole cow. Bullwinkle gets upset as the poem is changed, and he thinks that he's got Boris with the last line of the poem. ("I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was in bed. I took a marrow bone and hit him on the head.") However, upon arriving, Boris takes the marrow bone and hits Bullwinkle in the head, giving the story an unhappy ending, much to Boris' delight.

Lucretia Borgia, the world's best poison artist has just gotten a 12th husband who is snacking on furniture. Peabody and Sherman try to get the husband to leave Lucretia but he loves her too much to bail out on her. So, Peabody creates a special potion for him that will make the man impervious to poison so he will live and not leave his wife.

Despite going over Thundering Falls, Bullwinkle, by remaining cuke as a coolcumber, manages to snatch the last available mooseberry bush in the entire country, but a federal plant inspector with a familiar accent turns up, spraying the precious bush for blight, and forthwith, he and the bush disappear behind the huge cloud.

Those laughing Indians going by in a canoe aren't part of the Minnie-Ho-Ho tribe, but really Boris and Natasha with the purloined plant, so the big canoe race is on, with our heroes transforming their crashed plane into a water-worthy craft.

Rumpelstiltskin uses the magic of publicity to convince everyone that his client can spin gold out of straw.

Wee Willie Winkie runs afoul of Bullwinkle's Corner.

Sir Walter has a "Dead" line with the Queen to raise his waterlogged cargo or it will be off with his head! Now it's up to Peabody and Sherman to help him.

From Frostbite Falls, it's across a couple of the Great Lakes and portage through downtown Chicago, as the Great Canoe and Leaky Retrofitted Airplane Race is on! It's stroke-stroke-stroke and bail-bail-bail as the pursuit continues down ever more tiny waterways! And finally on one foggy evening, as they approach Washington, D.C., the two competing vessels are so close that—stroke-bail, bail-stroke—their echoes are even writing their own dialogue! But our heroes, prompted by some dastardly sign rewriting, take the wrong turn, heading toward the hideously whirling blade of a sawmill just ahead. Will it be Two for the Ripsaw, or, is it Good-bye, Mister Chips?

It's getting choppy out there all right, but even though the whirling blade cuts their little vessel in two, our heroes escape unscathed because...they're sitting on opposite sides of the craft! Rocky and Bullwinkle return to their laboratory in something less than triumph, booed by the fickle citizenry just because they've lost the mooseberry bush, while Boris and Natasha get ready to set sail for their homeland.

Peabody visits with Fulton, the famed inventor of the steamboat, and helps prove steamboats can outrun the fastest sailboats. But when the workers quit, Peabody must find a way to win the race without new workers. So he paints the boiler room to look like the North Pole.

If only they knew the whereabouts of another mooseberry bush! Perhaps the moon men will tell them, but when our heroes go to New York to call on Gidney and Cloyd, all they find is a theatrical newspaper with the headline: MOON MEN SOCKO IN LOS WAGES! BOFFO B.O.! Sure enough, Bullwinkle baby, the moon men have gone Hollywood, but they take time out from taking bows to take a long-distance call backstage and clue the moose in: There's a mooseberry bush to be found in Pottsylvania, a menacing little land that just happens to be where Boris and Natasha are from!

Rocky and Bullwinkle are up to their necks in trouble...and in water, too, for Boris Badenov has dumped them into the harbor and a huge ocean liner is bearing down on them, about to squeeze them against the dock!

Picked up by the mighty *S.S. Andalusia,* plowing her way through the seas to Pottsylvania, Bullwinkle sits basking on the deck next to a taciturn old gentleman, Sir Thomas Lipen-Boris—Uncle Chumley, actually—the purloined mooseberry bush in disguise! Meanwhile, Boris is boring...holes in a lifeboat, that is.

Tricked by a fake lifeboat drill called by Boris Badenov, that dastardly USC graduate (that is, the Ukrainian Safecracking College, dollink), into a leaky lifeboat—Moose overboard!—our heroes are all at sea and lost in a fog. But little does Boris know that Moose and Squirrel have courteously taken along that old and taciturn (and red and green and spotted) gentleman, Uncle Chumley, who bears an uncanny resemblance to a certain mooseberry bush.

Sweet Little Beet is a poor orphan girl forced into a life of drudgery and ill-treated by her wicked (and UGLY!) stepsisters. A mysterious (and invisible) Prince promises to wed the pure-in-heart maiden who can see him.

Snidely Whiplash smuggles furs across the border with the aid of his musical band "The Disloyal Canadians."

Bullwinkle has a sinking feeling that their boat is leaking, but when Rocky has Bullwinkle stand on his head, the points of his antlers fit exactly the holes in the boat! Unfortunately, the *S.S. Andalusia*—commanded by none other than Captain Peter "Wrong Way" Peachfuzz, recipient of a plethora of medals, all of them bestowed by the enemy—bears directly down on our heroes! Will it be the Deep Six, or, is it The Old Moose and the Sea?

There's nothing but splinters left of the little lifeboat, but mighty Bullwinkle has managed to grab ahold of the passing anchor, and Rocky has ahold of him, and when Boris looks out of his porthole and sees that they have ahold of Uncle Chumley, he has no choice but to grab ahold of our heroes and haul them in. At that moment Captain Peachfuzz veers off again, traveling more miles and getting to fewer places than any other vessel on Earth. The Captain's outrageous all right, and what's more, the food's almost gone.

A fisherman and his wife are very poor, and he is happy. The wife, however, is unhappy, and wishes that he would catch more fish in order to make a better living. While fishing, he catches a talking fish and takes it home to prove to his wife what he had found. The fish does not want to leave and gives the couple three wishes if they let him stay. They fumble around and get mad at the fish, telling him that they wish he would shut up- thus destroying all their hopes of getting rich. Eventually, they end up poor and back to square one.

Jesse James robs Mr. Peabody and Sherman, and Sherman is kidnapped while trying to get his things back from the outlaw. Now, it's up to Peabody to get Sherman back from Jesse James.

Our heroes are so hungry, they're eating *pictures* of food; meanwhile, Boris and Natasha go picking mooseberries. But when Captain Peachfuzz suddenly veers, Bullwinkle accidentally chomps down a few mooseberries, turning into a living, hiccuping bomb. Then, hearing the false story that his little friend Rocky has fallen overboard, the big-hearted moose dashes through the door, trips, and hurtles directly toward the deck thirty feet below! It looks like Bullwinkle Makes a Hit, or, Will I Get a Bang Out of You?

Galahad wishes Sir to be a clown just like him, but Sir would rather be a gallant knight. One night, he has a dream of being a knight and saving a beautiful princess from an evil dragon.
