George of the Jungle: Episode 8
ABC
October 28, 1967
Cartoon
DVD
C+
GJ: "The Desperate Showers"--C+, again the natives are white, and we hear (I think for the first time) that Ursula is George's wife, even if he sometimes thinks she's a man;
TS: "The Cupp Cup Race"--I actually almost went with a C+ on this, since Gertie Growler wears "hippie boots" and knows Karate (suggesting she's a prototype of the old lady Sara on Wait Till Your Father Gets Home), but I was annoyed when the "sissy" competitor's girlfriend is charmed by him telling her to shut up, so the usual C;
SC: "Rotten Hood"--C+, the title character goes from robbing squirrels to robbing the rich, and we find out that no one watches TV in Kansas City.
