Children? Only the R&B sight gags could be understood by children. Certainly the dialog and narration was for adults.

Its 2017.
A real estate mogui is president.
The opposition insists that men are really women and that the air we breathe out is destroying the planet.
Football leagues protest America.
And “The Rocky And Bullwinkle Show “ is still canceled.

Wonder is Mueller was able to investigate his Russian connection before he died?
To: jjotto
Perhaps but there were countless messages (as you well know) and not all children have the understanding of a child 😇

I may remember her best as the voice of Scary Mary in the Married With Children 1991 Season 6 Episode 08 - God's Shoes. It was the highlight of that episode.

A friend informs us that, of course, she was the voice of Talky Tina in the Twilight Zone episode also starring Telly Savalas.

I used to listen to that on a 78 rpm record over and over when I was a kid. Never stopped being funny to me. Noticed that Slacker throws it into the lineup every so often on their “Comedy” channel. Great stuff.

My understanding is that cartoons were originally designed for adults, who are able to pick up on the subtle nuances portrayed by the characters. I was always amazed at how the artists could convey various attributes of humans through those cartoon characters. I don’t think they make them anymore.

June Foray in 1952
June Lucille Forer (September 18, 1917 – July 26, 2017), better known as June Foray, was an American voice actress who was best known as the voice of such animated characters as Rocky the Flying Squirrel, Lucifer from Disney's Cinderella, Cindy Lou Who, Jokey Smurf, Granny from the Warner Bros. cartoons directed by Friz Freleng, Grammi Gummi from Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears series, and Magica De Spell, among many others.
Her career encompassed radio, theatrical shorts, feature films, television, record albums (particularly with Stan Freberg), video games, talking toys, and other media.

The top picture is Bea Benaderet of “Petticoat Junction”.
Also, I never knew Natasha had a last name—”Fatale”.
