The cool and often missed underlying tone, that still had appeal to both young and old, was the cold wars references, the poking fun at celebrities and current even and even Disney. While the show was a variety show showcasing other truly nonsensical truly goofy characters on their episodes
Dudley Do-Right(of the Mounties)
was a Canadian Mounties, quite cheerful, but not the sharpest nail in the shed.

Dudley nemisis was Snidley Whiplash, who was always putting in harms way, Dudley's true Love,
Nell Fenwick, Dudley's bosses daughter, Inspector Fenwick, from harrowing 'damsel in distress" situation time and time again. Sadly for Dudly, its seemed Nell did not share his infatuation and was enamored with Dudley's hore,
Horse. Horse generals helps Dudley suceed in saving Nell or just sheer luch, with little attributed to poor Dudley. Also famous for riding his Horse backwards in the opening intro.

Peabody's Improbable History, a classic dance with world history, with a genius dog who
incidentally talks and has the guardianship of Sherman,
whom he looks upon as his son. The series center how Dr. Peabody has created a time machine and went back in history to see the history of that time and to help make sure history happened as in history books.

Aesop and Son, another series, that seemed to show the old way and the new way of thinking. Like Fractured Fairy Tales except these are fables instead. Aesop tried to make parables with a lesson using fables, Aesops son used a clever play on words to contradict his father who lesson. The beginning shows basically the concept of the show with Aesop carefully carving his name in marble and his son, using a jackhammer bring about a huge cloud of dust, adds and son.
Fractured Fairy Tales, a classic in its own right as a cartoon. Taking both children's stories and fairy tales and giving them a twist of a modernized version leaving plenty of room for a comical outcome! And always the Fractured Fairy!
The World of Commander McBragg, series shorts. In short, were the revisionist history that Commander McBragg envisioned a reality.
And of course, Bullwinkle has little shorts appearing now and then in an episode.
Bullwinkles Mr. Know-It-All
Bullwinkle's Corner
Needless to say this added to the fun insanity in the show, with Bullwinkle trying to be the culture beacon, and taking nursery rhythms and poems and in his own contorted way acting them out and in the process, altho innocently, totally upending and twisted them with that classic humor abounding.
The Rocky and Bullwinkle Fan Club. Self-explanatory with the added caveat that conducting club business always ends up in a zany fiasco-here we are introduced to Captain Peter "wrong-way" Peachfuzz
And of course, Gidney and Cloyd, the two little green moon men who use a scrootch gun to freeze a person for an allotted amount of time
