When I got to college I had an oboe teacher who was related to Jay Ward, he had tons of Bullwinkle stuff in his office and studio. Loved that guy! We bought the dvds a few years ago and break them out from time to time.
I always said it was a smart kids cartoon.

It was on TV every day after school. My sister and I watched it together.
It was edgier, the humor all at once timely, sophisticated and silly, which was right up my alley. I have always loved satire.
