While A show about talking puppies can be pretty saccharine, Tom Ruegger's brand of humor made this show better than it had any right to be.

The thing I disliked about the stage show was the way it simply ended after the disastrous last third. This movie adaptation adds a little scene at the end that nicely makes the film feel complete. Seeing this in the cinema, the start of the movie did seem an odd audience-less rendition of the stage show but once the director steps in and the dynamics among the cast become apparent, it's a wonderful viewing experience. The way the second act is captured is perfection in timing and framing. Thank you for making this video.

I was introduced to both Dangermouse and Duckula in the early 90's translated into swedish. Had only a few episodes on vhs of both shows, loved them both. Though basically all the puns and jokes didn't translate that well. But I managed to hunt down all the episodes as an adult and I got to really appreciate the wonderful writing! Also every october I switch my ringtone to the end credits!

The prospect of a Phantom of the Opera cereal was quashed when the titular character became more identifiable with the stage musical. An Invisible Man cereal might be doable...can't really see much interest in a MAD GHOUL, METALUNA MUTANT or MOLE PEOPLE cereal, but I see no reason why they can't break away from Universal with a JEKYLL /HYDE,, GODZILLA, or KONG variety, if only at Halloween.

lol thank you for doing gods work ma man. And yes (sadly) wikipedia hasn't been reliable or accurate for a long time. Some exceptions of course. If you want reel cringe look at Esra Millers wikipedia entry: "gender *@*!" and it goes onto a very cringe (and gramitically terible) profile " they refer to they selves as they because they are " blah blah blah. Some toys I had from back in the day have minor errors. Famously the page on Hitler (that one) was one of the first to need protection since people were upset at it being up at all. As to the black lagoon creature logo: subtle round box was one thing: the first I noticed was the mascot was cut off and embossed, the beveled edges were simply wrong as well, looking. At least in the video. Thanks for noting it's fan, fantasy though your eagle eyes got saw a lot of things that didn't pop out in the video. (again on my screen blah blah blah). Fun Fact! General Mills, did, for sometime in the 60s (???) have a radio show themed around all kinds of creatures. One was the creature from the lagoon IIRC. It was however never called that. It was called something like fishman or the missing link. Besides we all know it's dinosaurs. :P thanks for the great video!

You forgot to mention that General Mills cereal absolutely sucks and therefore all of the cereal mentioned in this video sucks. General Mills has a distinct taste and as I got older I realized it's not good so I stick to Kellogg's, Post, or Cap N' Crunch (Quaker Oats). Trust me every Halloween I'm tempted to buy some Boo Berry but I know that I'm going to hate it so I won't waste my money. Kids like General Mills because they are always using IPs for popular kids shows or movies but they all have the same crappy taste.

Well to be fair I think it could work, just go with a "Mermaid" character.... (Mermaids are part fish and part human after all, and are also in the public domain....)

It has been said that some take offense to the appearance of Gill-Man, and how they gave him large lips, and it could be taken as basing the monster off stereotypes of black people. So, that could be a reason General Mills doesn't want such a creature on their cereal boxes

He's based off Vincent Price.
