Loved these 60's Jay Ward toons. Great puns, subtle humor , find 'em funnier now than when I was a kid in the 60's. Since the Duke, John Wayne, was around when this was made, wonder what he would've thought of this obvious parody of his vocal inflections.
I was in eight grade in 1965 when Super Chicken came out ,I would do the Super Chicken yell in the hall the nuns though I was nuts along with a few kids 😂
"When I'm off the sauce...." Heheh.... "Let that be a lesson to you. Never trust a man that throws money around." True words. Receding Airlines... These are priceless puns. In six min we got more humor then most of today's cartoons do in 30 min. This is humor that is heavily missed from an old salt like me.
Super Chicken-somebody could get hurt. Fred-which reminds me how do we keep from getting hurt when we hit the ground. Super Chicken-well i use my super brain Fred. Fred-yes. Super Chicken-i brought a parachute. Fred-just one. both-you knew the job was dangerous when you took it. Fred-i know.
Whoa! Fred called Super Chicken, "Cassius" no doubt this was a reference to Muhammad Ali, then known as Cassius Clay, who during this time period was famous for dropping Sonny Liston with his "Phantom punch" a punch that was so fast the camera didn't picket up.
"Look up in the sky,, it's a bird,, it's a plane,,No it's a bird in a plane,,,with great powers comes great responsibility,You knew the job was dangerous when you took it," Man they should talk to Tim Burton about bringing Super Chicken to the big screen.Andy Dick can be Fred...
I must stretch these out ,only one or two a day just before dinner like it used to be.Super Chicken and Fred 2024.Joe and Blow haven't a chance in henhouse hell !
the reference to the punch where super chickens arm does not move is from the heavy weight fight between sonny liston and muhommed ali, then cassius clay. that is why fred calls him cassius in the next frame. in the original airing it was his cassius clay punch, but that had to be changed.
@zapkvr Super Chicken debut in 67'.Cassius Clay changed his name to Muhammad Ali in 64'. But I'm sure at the time alot of people still referred to Ali by his original name.
How do they do that with the First Amendment? Guess I could figure it out. The US makes it up as it goes along. Separation of Church and State? Why the tax exemption?
In a lot of the old cartoons, they used sound effects from WW2. And jets sounded different then.They even went back as far as the 1940's for that special screeching tires effect. (Bugs Bunny). And yes, the falling of the Coyote on the Roadrunner show, was the whistling of a dropped bomb in WW2.
"You knew the job was dangerous when you took it." Best quote ever!!!!
that never gets old
100%

One of the better John Wayne impressions! Even if toungue in cheek
Even after a half century I 💕💕 these cartoons.
I'm 56 and still amaze ppl when I can still sing "Super Chicken".
"When you find yourself in danger, when you're threatened by a stranger, when it looks like you will take a lickin'..."
59 and...ayup!!!
61...baCAAWK!!!
"What I'm not on the sauce, call me Mr. Henhouse" -- classic!
Peter Piper RIGHT?!!!! LMAO!!
I haven't seen this one in years! My favorite line of all!
"One of these days Horse. You and me is going to have to have a little talk!"
I was in eight grade in 1965 when Super Chicken came out ,I would do the Super Chicken yell in the hall the nuns though I was nuts along with a few kids 😂
very catchy theme song and lovable cartoon characters......
"When I'm off the sauce...." Heheh....

Receding Airlines! Long live Jay Ward and Bill Scott!
*Baoump!
You knew the job was dangerous when you took it . Just brilliant :-)
Fred says "you just brought 1 parachute I know you knew the job was dangerous when you took it. Too Funny LOL
lol I love that part you knew the job was dangerous when you took it
"Hi Ho, Chicken! Away!"
Classic!
I think John Wayne had a big laugh watching this...
Featuring June Foray, Daws Butler, Bill Scott, and Paul Frees.
(you knew the job was dangerous when you took it.) that never gets old.
I worked with someone named Fred, and that is his boss's favorite quote!
Thank you for sharing these. They bring back so many memories.
The chicken say's he'll meet you in the street at high noon, then he's a gonner. Classic lines
Receding Airlines. LOL!!
Surprised? You coulda knocked me over with a feather. I did!
This is when cartoons had style and humor
13 people have no appreciation for the classics, man.
you said it. but i have appreciation for the classics.
Fred "I thought you were gonna talk to him about that"
I`m just thinking .oO(How would he even know that)
Super Chicken-somebody could get hurt.
Fred-which reminds me how do we keep from getting hurt when we hit the ground.
Super Chicken-well i use my super brain Fred.
Fred-yes.
Super Chicken-i brought a parachute.
Fred-just one.
both-you knew the job was dangerous when you took it.
Fred-i know.
Forgot about the chicken bugle call. Hilarious!
Whoa! Fred called Super Chicken, "Cassius" no doubt this was a reference to Muhammad Ali, then known as Cassius Clay, who during this time period was famous for dropping Sonny Liston with his "Phantom punch" a punch that was so fast the camera didn't picket up.
Coincidentally, I was living in Cedar Rapids when this first aired in '67, and was an amazed 9 year old to hear my town named twice in a cartoon.

One of these days horsie, you and I are going to have a little talk.
+OldeSkool1 I thought you were going to speak to him about that.
rocky and bullwinkle was very adult too.. none of us'ns was stoned enough as kids to understand
I got the complete series.
Wild Ralph Hiccup LOL
Does anyone think that this guy sounds like John Wayne?
That was the whole idea...
I must stretch these out ,only one or two a day just before dinner like it used to be.Super Chicken and Fred 2024.Joe and Blow haven't a chance in henhouse hell !
John Wayne lives! __through Super Chicken. ;)
This show is so cute
my uncle use to sing that song well only the half of the lyrics til I gave him the rest
how much tickets super chicken paid
I just had Susper Chicken for lunch. Fried, giblets too. The meal was dangerous when I ate it.
The Coolest Superhero of the 1960's! 👍🏻🦸🐔
the reference to the punch where super chickens arm does not move is from the heavy weight fight between sonny liston and muhommed ali, then cassius clay. that is why fred calls him cassius in the next frame. in the original airing it was his cassius clay punch, but that had to be changed.
I wonder if this is where D.B. Cooper got the idea.....
🎵you know the job was dagerous when you took it.🎵 I love the song♥️♥️♥️.
love super chicken This looks like a job for....
Fred: Mr. henhouse
me: wrong name lol
Henry: Fred ?
Fred: The Super chicken
Super Chicken? Boy, you sure know how to hurt a guy.
HowardSalwasser lol
just like Gary cooper's high noon.
Mr. Henhouse!! Gee, Fred ain't allowed a first-name speaking basis.
1:04 how did he open the door to a pressurized plane??
+mlongpre100 if it was a pressurized plane the gun would cause it to crash, its obviously an older unpressurized one
+ShaddySoldier obviously
He used the "Jonny Quest" method.
Hell, howd he even get IN?
We've got talking animals and a hero who powers up by getting shitfaced. We drove off the realism bridge long, long ago.
Flying at a low altitude :P
Sounds like John Wayne.
I wonder if John Wayne ever saw this?
really
Lol, I was just wondering that myself. The Duke got his boxers bunched when the Sergeant in "Go Go Gophers" sounded too much like him.
Wanted wild Ralph hiccup
the oyster is a bad dude,,, glad i dont eat seafood,,,,mad narator also,,love it all.
Back when theme songs would explain the show.
Back then they had awsome theme songs!
When cartoons had fantastic voices and were well written enough to compensate for lacking any special effects. Slap stick comedy at it's best!
Pretty 👌 very nice
You are the ugliest stewardess I ever saw (shoots at him three times) and almost the meanest LOL!
2:31 Dat Drinking Noise Dough
remember super Dave Osborne.
U new the job was dangerous when u took it
Right Cassius uh, ?
"...Once again the airways are made safe for Democracy"....HAAAA ha ha ha.
sit still or i'm gonna shoot somebody-BANG-maybe me
Super Pollo, Leonardo y la huevo nave lo maximo
Look, even if the horse had not moved ( great mean look, btw) he would be so dead.
???
Did Fred call Henry "Csssius" Was this before Mr Clay converted to Islam?
No, that was ‘64, this was ‘67
D B COOPER,
Actually I think this cartoon predated him.
@zapkvr Super Chicken debut in 67'.Cassius Clay changed his name to Muhammad Ali in 64'. But I'm sure at the time alot of people still referred to Ali by his original name.
I didnt notice back in the day, but Fred was pretty dang gay.
No, based on Ed Wynn. Not his thing.
As for Super Chicken, in a couple of episodes he is reading ‘Playchick’ magazine.
How come This episode Is Banned?
If it is, ban not working.
How do they do that with the First Amendment?
Guess I could figure it out. The US makes it up as it goes along.
Separation of Church and State? Why the tax exemption?
Big Bubba just take a look-don’t expect a superhero to zoom right in...
buck buck buck buck
June foray?
Yes June was in the episode. She voiced the woman at the start of the episode.
June is my hero! When she teamed up with Mel Blanc (Bugs Bunny shows) she was fantastic. They were an unstoppable force.
They could have at least added real jet noise at the end.
In a lot of the old cartoons, they used sound effects from WW2. And jets sounded different then.They even went back as far as the 1940's for that special screeching tires effect. (Bugs Bunny). And yes, the falling of the Coyote on the Roadrunner show, was the whistling of a dropped bomb in WW2.
you couldn't get this into my *private* collection if you paid me.
