This is Probably a stupid question, but who's Mrs. Appleby, I don't think I remember her.

Mrs. Appleby is Robin's Frog Scoutmaster. She was seen briefly in the wedding scene of TMTM and in the Carol Burnett and Debbie Harry episodes of TMS.

Heh, radioactive soap and prisoners singing "Tomorrow"- excellent!

You beat me to writing a Burl Ives outline! Oh well, at least mine is set in a different season. Gene Wilder, too.

In case you didn't know, the reason I included Grape Jell-O in this outline is because in the early '90's Bill Cosby did commercials for Grape Jell-O. Just thought I'd explain that :smile:

The only reason that I revive these is to give the newer members a chance to read them, so there's no excuse for not replying.

-Any fav parts?
-For the UK Skit, imagine the main prisoner as the same guy from the Danny Kaye UK Skit; same voice too.
-Think of this ep as being around the same time as the Mac Davis ep.
