The Secret Squirrel Show

This Hanna-Barbera cartoon from the mid-sixties is still one of my favorites, the rare combination of the legendary Paul Frees and Mel Blanc working together is an extra treat. Also, the villain who was a spoof of Caspar Gutman in 'The Maltese Falcon' is hilarious. A great memory from childhood.

Secret Squirrel is a great show, and Super Secret Squirrel, which was part of the "2 Stupid Dogs" show in the 90's was even better. I know is name is secret Squirrel, but its still odd to me that everything he has is imprinted with "SS" as this was of course a Nazi thing in WWII. They never say exactly which country he's working for! The SS all over the place creeps me out though! Now if we can just figure out who Dasterdly and Muttley were working for on their show that was all about stopping Yankee Doodle Pigeon. Doesn't sound like America, though they were bad guys, they were lovable bad guys. Maybe its a Hogan's Hero's type of thing. Oh well, great cartoon all around!
