Does anybody else recognize the quote, "The goblins will get you if you don't watch out"? It's from the poem "Little Orphant Annie" by James Whitcomb Riley. (Yes, it's really orphant.)
🤩 Nice! I’m from the Metropolitan Detroit area and this was one of my favorite cartoons Tennessee tuxedo and his tales, Bullwinkle/fractured fairytales,🧐But here’s the thing I don’t recall watching them in Michigan we were always in Chicago when I watched them,🤓But my older sister assured me they were on there as well, 😅 she had a friend and nicknamed her Chumley.
"I love you more, my lovely princess---than pies of apples or of minces." "Well, the guards just couldn't stand that---and I really can't blame them." Priceless!!!
Nah. It was like that lots back then, if you just listened. That 'fun knee' was only one of the many written that way. It just looks like rare priceless treasure when you look at entertainment nowadays.
With that sweet and silvered tongue, you and she could make your young! And send them nigh to Princeton on high, so they might all be princeling….yeah, never mind
Holy crap, this opening just unlocked a core memory. I had forgotten about these! Also, this one was inspired by the book, The Princess and the Goblin, by George McDonald. Good times.
In the 1960s as kids wed watch Fractured Fairy tales when our fave cartoons were not on. Jonny Quest, Scooby Doo and others like that were the A list cartoons, but when we got older we saw how clever Fractured Fairy tales and Rocky and Bullwinkle were
These were very good. I watched them back in the 60s. They were more for older children and adults than little kids. All part of Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.
The original story was one of my favorites as a kid. I was aware of the animated movie adaptation from the 1990s, but I hadn't realized there was a Fractured Fairy Tale parody of it!
Please tell me you will upload more "un-rstored" rocky and Bullwinkle!! I've never liked the digital restoration process as often a lot of classic subtle sound effects are lost.
@@Momusinterra On the contrary, I’ve read The Hobbit and The Lord of The Rings over and over again and many other books by Tolkien. I’ve been a complete Tolkien nerd since junior high school.
Lol. These were a huge part of my childhood growing up in Brooklyn in the 60s. I went back to college as an adult, and these tales often found their way into many an erudite and stimulating discussion (okay, we were laughing our butts off.)
I used to watch these fairy tales all the time as a little girl. I just realised the stories were told by a famous actor that I'd seen in many films, but only just now connected the dots. Odd as he's voice is so distinctive.
These 'Fractured' versions have been so precious to me all my life! And that's a long time, too. Edward Everett Horton is one of my favorite actors, and voice people, too. He was the best example of 'deadpan' that I can think of. In 'talkies', there were greats in silent films. I think he actually starred in a comedy, 1930's. Can't remember for sure, but it's in the tubes of the Whirled Wide Web somewhere...
Edward Everett Horton was also in a movie titled “Pocket Full of Miracles.” I saw it as a child and to this day remember his wonderful body language and facial expressions. That movie made me a fan. I still will watch any film graced by his masterful comedic timing.
This just turned up in my feed. Remember watching Fractured Fairytales as kid, thinking that stories weird and kinda silly. Now as an adult, most of this cartoons were never meant for kids. 😂😂
Ha ha. Maybe not the best of the bunch.. but still entertaining. My little sister loved to watch.. Bullwinkle or Rocky and Friends ... whatever the name was... But I liked the Fractured Fairy Tails... They were great.
I watched the movie and I was a kid. Absolutely one of my favorites. I didn't know there was a little cartoon like this. I hope there are more stories like the light princess. This was absolutely darling.
Do you have Tubi? If you do, look for the Shirley Temple Show. It's a TV series she made in the 50's'-60's. Each episode is a live action play based on different stories or books. The Princess and the Goblin is one. Shirley played Princess Irene. The stories always had good casts, such as Agnes Morehead (Endora from Bewitched), Jonathan Winters, Robert Culp, Jonathan Harris (Dr. Smith from Lost in Space), and Mary Wickes. Not all episodes are available on Tubi, but I think I've seen about 10.
I'm currently reading the book The Princess and the Goblin and this showed up on my feed. The book is actually a bit creepy IMO. If you ignore the cute illustrations the descriptions of the goblins are pretty horrific. BTW I'm 57 but so is the book I reckon. It's an old Puffin imprint I bought from a second hand book dealer friend and the paper is like filo pastry.
His other fairy stories are very good too, and Lilith is particularly creepy, and has a character who i think is maybe intended to be the same character as Irene's grandmother.
@@pyromaniac709 Lilith is another fantasy book by George MacDonald who wrote the Princess and the Goblin. It starts off a bit slow with an annoying conversation between the protagonist and a raven, but it's his most imaginative book, I think.
I did not know this existed I mean? And I knew that the princess and the goblin existed the movie when I was a kid, the cartoon that was made in the 1980s and 90s. But not this version.
There was a theater here in Chicago that had a salute to Rocky & Bullwinkle. The theater was jam-packed. When the “Fractured Fairy Tales” segment started, the roof went off the place from the cheering and applause!
I loved these cartoons! They were so clever! Once I was watching an old movie when I recognized the voice of the one actor. I never saw him before, but I knew listening to him that he was the narrator of these segments.
I'm old enough to remember when this was new,damn , amazing the memories good and bad, that accompany such a simple cartoon.... people now will never see the likes of talent and imagination like these cartoons again. That's why you see nothing but puerile,lame attempts to remake the movies of the past into politically relevant garbage ad nauseam.......
These were always so brilliant and made childhood more interesting. As an adult, one can see the sardonicism. It’s still fun and totally original.💛 In retrospect, it puts things that we as children didn’t conceptualize. We understood it on the surface, but we didn’t understand, the deeper and more specific meaning. The reason I say this is because when I was a child I learned from my aunt in words I could understand; Why we brought the Tea Party in the first place. These vignettes gave us, as children, a conceptual understanding of what the adults might not have been able to give us. Sorry about that. I will go now.
Does anybody else recognize the quote, "The goblins will get you if you don't watch out"? It's from the poem "Little Orphant Annie" by James Whitcomb Riley. (Yes, it's really orphant.)
Yes, my grandmother used to read that poem to us. I still have the anthology it’s in.
"Little Orphant Annie is comin' to our house today"
I remember reading it in grade school. Haven't thought of it in years.
Yeah, the goblins catch bad kids and drag them through the floor
We were required to memorize it in either 3rd or 4th grade.
But in that goblins was spelled as Gobble-uns
I used to watch this at noon everyday when I was growing up in Detroit in the 60’s and 70’s. So much fun!!

How did you watch this eveyday at *NOON* ?
Weren't you in school?
❤❤
@@HughJass-jv2lt I went to 1pm afternoon kindergarten class.
Nobody cares. Not sure why you would think someone would. So weird and desperate for any attention
OMG I miss this kinda stuff & the kinda day we were brought up in‼️
🤣 It really cracks me up everytime the little guy kicks the giant at the introduction. 🤣
I love watching these cartoons before bed every night ❤
So weird to hear that voice again! What lies in your mind reignited
Fractured Fairy Tales was one of my favorites back in the 60’s. Thank you for sharing it.
Interesting to hear the two different versions of the FFT themes, the intro of one and the outro of the other.
I don't have any explicit memories of this, but it looks and feels so familiar to me.
The king sounds like the voice for Cap’n Crunch
I use to watch these when i was a kid.
Goblins are relatable
Some say the man is still leashed till this very day.
Love Rocky and Bullwinkle!!
I saw the 90s movie as a kid. Had no idea there was another version of the story until today!
fun fun.
I’ve see one called The Goblin Princess…. On you know … that other channel….. 😉
💙🔥💙
Only a small debt to George MacDonald then
"I love you more, my lovely princess---than pies of apples or of minces."
"Well, the guards just couldn't stand that---and I really can't blame them."
Priceless!!!

My late wife loved George McDonald. Inspired satire.
Gotta read it while eating cheeseburger, fries and coke.
Hearing the voice of Edward Everett Horton takes me right back to my childhood. I loved Rocky and Bullwinkle, especially Fractured Fairy Tales.🥰
Then you must surely enjoy Ze Frank!
I'm not calling you Shirley, sorry....
... I'm a fan 😉
“Couldn’t you go somewhere and learn to be a prince?”
“Like where?”
“How about PRINCEton?”

I loved Johny Quest,Dr Quest,Race Bannon,Hadji,Bandit
Flintstones was my favorite
Rocky and Bullwinkle stood head and shoulders above all that cookbook Hanna and Barbara stuff.
Edward Everett Horton was so perfect for voiceovers
He was the perfect narrator.
Yes. Absolutely. I was thinking the same thing.
Although I keep thinking Arsenic and Old Lace.
Simon Stanhope of Bitesize Audiobooks has a very similar voice. I recommend The Fenchurch Street Mystery
I just saw that last week! 😊@@DonnaBarrHerself
These were very good. I watched them back in the 60s. They were more for older children and adults than little kids. All part of Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.
Oh, that's hilarious. I had no idea they'd adapted MacDonald's classic. Faithful to the details too, like the goblins' tender feet!
Also a solid Little Orphant Annie reference
The original story was one of my favorites as a kid. I was aware of the animated movie adaptation from the 1990s, but I hadn't realized there was a Fractured Fairy Tale parody of it!
That makes two of us.
This show was one of my favorite shows .
.Love it ..
Please tell me you will upload more "un-rstored" rocky and Bullwinkle!!

I remember watching these as a kid and i didn't understand them at the time. Its strange watching now . Thanks for sharing this.
I loved these cartoons. The narrator played a wiseguy chief Hakowey Indian on F Troop
The narrator was a wonderful actor by the name of Edward Everett Horton. ❤️☺️❤️☺️❤️
Takes me back to happy times.
Me too!❤
@@celiamaness8856 Me three! 😊
@@abbynormal3068 Me four! 😊
Yes indeed
I forgot exactly how good these were!
Simple, yet fun. Sometimes the best things of entertainment are.
Thank you very much for bringing something from my childhood that was actually good. Much appreciated
The original story was written by George Macdonald whose fantasy stories were a major influence on C. S.Lewis.
J. R. R. Tolkien modeled the goblins in his books on George Macdonald’s description of goblins.
Thanks for the info
@@davidjunker2772
It's clear that you have read no Tolkien.

Very nice! Thanks for watching & sharing your thoughts.
1:31 Adam and Eve??? I must have missed goblins in Genesis.
And at the very end (5:37) Tennesse Tuxedo and Chumley make a brief appearance
I remember seeing Edward Everett Horton in an old movie, I think it was "Holiday," and being thrilled that I knew that voice.
Same! For me the recognition came with “Pocket Full of Miracles.”
My growing up cartoon
I used to watch these fairy tales all the time as a little girl. I just realised the stories were told by a famous actor that I'd seen in many films, but only just now connected the dots. Odd as he's voice is so distinctive.
Love this as a 57 year old this takes me back to the good Ole days.❤🎉❤😊😊
Poem: We must not look at Goblin men, we must not eat their fruit, who knows upon what they feed their hungry thirst roots!
I remember these cartoons. It came on right after the Pink Pather. Ahhhh I miss those cartoons. I may be 54 but I still love them. nostalgic!!

He was also in Top Hat 1930's Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers and he's funny in it. 😅
Suddenly it makes sense why the goblins from rankin-bass we're so angry and mean for the dwarves!
Thank you so much for these..
You're quite welcome, so glad I snagged these on VHS when they aired,
This was my "smartass" schooling as a kid.
This just turned up in my feed. Remember watching Fractured Fairytales as kid, thinking that stories weird and kinda silly. Now as an adult, most of this cartoons were never meant for kids. 😂😂
I remember these being on Sunday instead of Saturday mornings along with Bullwinkle. Good memories.
Yes I remember them being on Sundays too and I loved them! 😅
Is it just me or did the king sound a bit like Cap'n Crunch? Wouldn't it be funny if it was the same guy?
Loved these! PB&J with milk and these cartoons....then back to school. Walking no less. NE Ohio.
Gay goblins, who would've thought?
There will never be that voice or this style of classic humour 👏👏👏
Ha ha. Maybe not the best of the bunch.. but still entertaining. My little sister loved to watch.. Bullwinkle or Rocky and Friends ... whatever the name was... But I liked the Fractured Fairy Tails... They were great.
Love how the goblins wiggle their fingers. Pushing 60 now and loved this so many years ago...but now enjoy the comedy that was over my head then!
Every Sunday at 12:30pm !!! I was in front of the TV !!! Loved these !!!!

thank you soo much. i loved Rocky snd Bullwinkle. so good to hear music again. Have a good one. 😋⛅️🌷🌱
Wow I remember watching these as a kid. Wasn't this a part of the Rocky and Bullwinkle show? Great stuff! Thanks for posting...........
One of My Favorite Episodes of F.F.T.
4:12, 😆
Did this company also do the George of the Jungle cartoon? Pacing and tone feel very familiar
Just more praise for these classics from an old man in Eastern Kentucky who enjoys them now as much as he did then.
Great writing and the great Mr. Horton. Good time to be growing up with them. Hope you can get new fans. Great channel. Thank you for sharing.
These and bullwinkle were on early in the mornings in Michigan in the 60s and 70's. We would watch them while getting ready for school
Julie Bennett, as "Irene'.
I thought that was june the foray
I have to admit, that poetry would send me packing! Fractured Fairy Tales is still great!
I remember these tales from years ago and still find them enjoyable. Thanks for sharing. Joe S

I knew Hans Conried because of listening to his voice in Fractured Fairy Tails as a child.
Lucky Irene didnt say Minneapolis was one place to learn to be a prince ^^
Go lions are repulsed by poetry good to know this information will suite me well in the future

why was a child jumping rope at night ?

This goes back to the 1960’s not 90’s
Did anyone notice when the king asked, "how much" that the tailor said 500 and the name of a demon. The one featured in The Exorcist film. Creepy
Pazuzu?
I loved Rocky and Bullwinkle.
I was rooting for the goblins. This had the set up for a good metaphor for arbitrary discriminatory legislation.
