List of Rocky and Bullwinkle episodes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The following is a list of individual episodes of the American animated television feature Rocky and Bullwinkle (1959-1964). In the original broadcasts, two Rocky and Bullwinkle segments were aired as part of each half-hour program, along with several supporting features and bumpers.

There is a difference of opinion regarding the titles famously used as teasers at the end of most Rocky and Bullwinkle segments to promote the next episode (e.g. "Don't miss tomorrow's exciting episode: Bullwinkle's Ride or Goodbye, Dollink"). Some sources, such as IMDB, use them as actual titles for the individual episodes. Others, however, regard them simply as each segment's final gag (most involve cultural references—sometimes rather obscure—and frequently dreadful puns) rather than as actual titles. While these titles are mentioned at the end of most episodes they never appear in or on the episodes to which they supposedly refer. The Rocky and Bullwinkle DVDs do not use these titles, referring to the individual segments simply by number. However, Keith Scott's The Moose that Roared, prepared in cooperation with Jay Ward's family and production company, does use them.[1]

The first two seasons appeared on ABC as Rocky And His Friends. The last three seasons aired on NBC as The Bullwinkle Show. Today they are known collectively as The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show or simply Rocky and Bullwinkle. For legal reasons, current DVD editions title the reassembled programs The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends.

Rocky and Bullwinkle story arcs generally end with the title characters riding off into the sunset. Rather than promoting a specific upcoming episode or story line the narrator simply exhorts viewers to "tune in next time" for the heroes' further adventures. Thus, the initial segment of each story arc is not named in the preceeding episode; these episodes take their names from the story arc that they begin.

[edit] Season 1 (1959-1960)

The first season contained twenty-six half-hour shows, each of which included two Rocky and Bullwinkle segments. Production of the first season was intentionally halted after twenty-six shows, as twenty-six weekly programs would fill exactly half a year and simplify any rerun schedule.[1]

[edit] Notes

There is conflict between several online sources regarding the division of the story arcs into seasons. The breakdown presented here is based on the following references:

  • The Complete Season 1 DVD set begins with Jet Fuel Formula and concludes with Box Top Robbery. Thus,[2]
  • Season 2 begins with Upsidaisium. The Complete Season 2 DVD set contains 52 episodes (or 104 segments), which would run through Wailing Whale. Thus,[3]
  • Season 3 begins with The Three Moosketeers. This is confirmed in Keith Scott's The Moose that Roared.[1] As the Complete Season 3 DVD set contains four story arcs,[4]
  • Season 4 begins with Painting Theft.
  • According to Keith Scott, Season 5 (as well as a new numbering system for the episodes) began with Bumbling Brothers Circus.[1]

The DVD sets and Keith Scott's book have been assembled with the participation of Jay Ward's family and of the current incarnation of Jay Ward Productions and are believed to be authoritative.
