I’m 63 and still watching them - since I was a child in the early 1960s. They were my favorite. So creative and amazing - has adult humor that I never understood as a kid too.
These were just fantastic to watch. Excellent voice actors, humorous stories told by a magnificent narrator, Edward Everett Horton! The perfect recipe for excellent storytelling.
I remeber watching these in the early 80s. There were the more mainstream saturday morning cartoons, but if you got up early on sunday before church, you could catch these along with rocky and bullwinkle
Now if only I could still eat a mounded-over bowl of Kellogg's Honey Smacks with about 1/2 cup of sugar added accompanied by triple strength Tang, I might feel like a kid again. Of course, I would also need to wear flannel pj’s.
@@Allan_aka_RocKITEman - Also just learned that he was Kato in a 1940 Green Hornet serial. So yes, quite well-known long before he ever got to Kung Fu.
when i was a kid, getting amurican tv cartoons was like getting signals from mars, i lived on the 45th parallel so getting yanky tv was possible, but not easy to get. this was usually part of the rocky and bullwinkle show, and they were known for they're really bad jokes and puns that ended of their segments with, some of them left you gowning well into the next segment, there was always a moral or gage involved and thats what made them so endearing
You must be from Canada. I lived on the border and used to recieve very fuzzy B&W Canadian TV where we enjoyed your cartoons. "The World of Oz" and "The New Adventures of Pinocchio" come to mind.
@@charlie-obrien if you were born around '61, they yea, you would most of these cartoons, what a great time to be a kid, eh ?!?!?! you might hate me but grew up in a resturarnt where our head cook would make candy apples for helloween, and candy canes at christmas time but we only had hot cross buns during easter though. im sure if mom and dad allowed him we would have had our own line of easter bunnies too, WHERE IS MY DAMN TIME MACHINE !!!!!
Been a fan of the Rocky & Bullwinkle show since it first aired in 1959 (I'm 73). In fact, I preferred it to any other cartoon show. Love the voices in Fractured Fairy Tales--including Edward Everett Horton's, the narrator--and the silly dialogue. It would be great to watch the voice actors speak their parts in a doc about the series.😄
Thank-you so very much, Richard Adams, for introducing that Grimms' Fairy Tale, "The Brave Tailor" as well as the Russian Fairy Tale entitled "The Norko" to me! 🙂 { a. D. 2023 - vi - 14 @ ~9:11 p. m. (PDT) s. j. s. }
Wowsers!!! This episode is chock-full of wittiness, above and beyond, a child's academic, spectrum. Boy, that King's daughter is a keeper, huh😏⁉️ She appears 60ish, to a king, who looks 35. And, I learned a new word: 'averous' (spell correction, sucks).
I'm merely 61, but Bullwinkle and this whole show was a main Saturday morning show. I admit to not getting all of the jokes then, but it makes it even more fun to watch now.
I actually have a tape an uncle of mine made (god rest his soul) of Boomerang back when it had REALLY old shows like this and during the Rocky and Bullwinkle show, this was the Fractured Fairy Tale that played.
The best cartoon show ! From Rocky & Bullwinkle and the other characters. My favorite always was Sherman & Peabody. Great satire! I'm 73 and go back to Koko the clown and Farmer Gray cartoons !
Daws Butler did the voice for the king. He voiced a lot of characters for the "Fractured Fairy Tales" segment. And yes, Daws Butler did the voice for the Cap'n Crunch character.
Has kids we never actually worked out of these characters have thick American accents and not British accents as royalty normally would even watching in Australia
This one, The Fly King kinda Reminded me Of Donald Trump, spying and jailing people. Maybe some will get Trump. with a huge Fly Swattwer, like the evil King. 😈 😊😂

Oh yes that's the genius of these, entertaining for a kid and adult alike.
@@siresoundschannel2 Exactly! Just like the Warner Brothers cartoons. The creativity that demands though is incredible. Thank you for posting these!!
This and Peabody were SO good... but Rocky & Bullwinkle were SO bad... very odd cartoon program
Me too
I love them more now!
I'm with EDL in the comments! I'm 62 and have loved these cartoons with splendid voice overs for ages!
So simple, yet fantabulous!!
I was 5 in 1965 and this was a favorite, along with Tennessee tuxedo and Bullwinkle
Love these cartoons too! And the go go gophers, grape ape,Tennessee tuxedo, fog horn leg horn, the way back machine and so many more!

I'm 60 I used to watch them as a kid. Great cartoons . I still watch them

These were on Sunday mornings along with Johnny Quest. Thanks for the memories. I'm sixty years young
Turning 61 next week. These cartoons were fantastic when I was younger but they are even better now that I’m older.

Yup! Tang, think they promoted that as what the astronauts drank in space.
When I was a kid in the early 70's astronauts came to our school & the very first question: Do you drink Tang?
Ahhh, Tang. I remember eating it straight from the jar as a kid.
Sounds like we should all meet up for cereal and Tang and cartoons! 😅
I miss the 60's.❤
I thought this was the 70s but they may have been reruns
"An autographed picture of Keye Luke." Whoa, grasshopper, I missed that one as a kid!😅. (Love those Fractured Fairytale openings)
If I'm not mistaken, Key Luke was "number one son" to Charlie Chan long before he was master Po.
@@guarddog318>>> Yes.

I'm an adult and I missed that one.
I’m 53, loved these cartoons then, and still love them now.
I enjoyed and still enjoy these cartoons!
OMG. This took me WAAAAAAAAAAAY back. Awesome find and I am now subscribed.
I’d love to get an autograph picture of Keye Luke! Great actor!
One of my all time favs as a kid!!❤
i like this show when i was a kid
Love these cartoons 😍
I'm 75 and still watch these
…. me too ……. It’s either this or the stupidity on 100 cable channels …. so here I am ….

Just discovered these. They're great!
Sure takes me back to world that will never be again 😢
I used to watch the Fractured Fairy tales when a kid. Nice to see one again. 👑
Originally seen on "ROCKY AND HIS FRIENDS" in 1960.
Yes!

Enjoyed watching these tales when they first came out and still enjoy them now. Really like that little fairy and her book, funny. Joe S
This is my favorite Fractured Fairy Tale, as I've actually read 'Seven With One Blow' in French ("Sept d'un Coup', if you will)....

I watched the reruns of these in the mid 70s as a kid we loved them they came on early in the morning .

"Avarice", my friend
And if you're greedy, then you're "avaricious" 🙂
Well I’m 64 and remember retelling the stories to my Mom when she drove me to school… it was the closest I ever felt to her.
I'm merely 61, but Bullwinkle and this whole show was a main Saturday morning show. I admit to not getting all of the jokes then, but it makes it even more fun to watch now.
I loved these when I was a kid. Still do!
Lol. I loved Fractured Fairy Tales as a kid. Haven't seen them in a long time.
My dad and I watched these when I was a kid in the 90s. It was from The Rocky and Bullwinkle show.
Fractured fairytales, Johnny Quest, and the Hurculoids. Loved them all.
more please
…. watched this episode back in ‘67 ….. never killed a fly since …. heart warming …..
The tailor was the hero to stop the king bullshit.
"... the rung thing to do, anyway you look at it..."
I'm 62 and I ....Im 62??....CRAP!!!! How the hell did that happen??
Absolutely brilliant. 🌿🇺🇲🌿
"The king is a fink." Is this a reference to "Wizard of Id"?
There was a small booklet collection of Wizard of Id comics in the late 1960s titled The King is a Fink. I owned a copy as a kid.
@@bellstonemerriwetherrivens3344I did too!
There's an outlaw motorcycle gang in Australia called the FINKS
I actually have a tape an uncle of mine made (god rest his soul) of Boomerang back when it had REALLY old shows like this and during the Rocky and Bullwinkle show, this was the Fractured Fairy Tale that played.
Brings back memories…
The best cartoon show ! From Rocky & Bullwinkle and the other characters. My favorite always was Sherman & Peabody. Great satire! I'm 73 and go back to Koko the clown and Farmer Gray cartoons !
Hilarious ending. I miss this humor.
CAP'N CRUNCH LIVES AS KING OF THE KINGDOM!!!
Hey, now that's funny ! He did get "crunched" in the end. 👍
Daws Butler did the voice for the king. He voiced a lot of characters for the "Fractured Fairy Tales" segment.
And yes, Daws Butler did the voice for the Cap'n Crunch character.
Love me some Cap’n Crunch
So much for that. 😆🤙🏻
Flash Back, Thanks!
The incomperable Daws Butler, June Foray, and Edward Everett Horton.
I remember these
I loved them too.
Great stuff
He wasn't a buzz around the town in the end
Interesting how just about every king in these fairy tales sounds like Captain Crunch.
a Keye Luke reference no less!
That's got to be Jim Backus as the King.
Daws Butler. The other voice artist is June Foray, and narration is Edward Everett Horton. That's it. Three actors voicing the entire series.
00:22 - "Once upon a timepiece..."😅 I missed that first time listening😃
So avarice was the king's ultimate undoing.
I KNEW I'D SEEN BORIS JOHNSON SOMEWHERE BEFORE
Hilarious 🏰
These cartoons very often end with an outrageous, groan-worthy pun, but I didn't hear one in this episode
Did I miss it ?
Justice prevails.
Who wouldn't do anything for an autographed picture of Keye Luke?
cool
The wicked king sounds like Snagglepuss
Nothing up my sleeve
As Seen on The Bozo Super Sunday Show
The King is a Fink ........ LOLOL ................
Does anyone know who does the voice of the other king???
Has kids we never actually worked out of these characters have thick American accents and not British accents as royalty normally would even watching in Australia
I KILLED SEVEN WITH ONE BLOW!!!
So all we have to do is swat Joe button.
There's no such thing as an enchanted fly.....all flies need to be swatted.....
😂
3;23 is that Donaldo Trumpo?
@5:28 Is that Bido's agenda for America?
From an age where cartoons weren’t just mindless drivel.
This one, The Fly King kinda Reminded me Of Donald Trump, spying and jailing people. Maybe some will get Trump.
with a huge Fly Swattwer, like the evil King. 😈 😊😂
Gotta love the lame puns
Supposedly written for kids...
But even as I near 60, the genius is clear.
