A "making of" special, called ''Of Moose and Men: The Rocky and Bullwinkle Story'' was aired in March 1990 on [[PBS]]. It's well worth watching.

* [[Genius Ditz]]: Turns out Bullwinkle is ''really'' good at fencing (although he uses it to shish kebab). Good enough to not only be mistaken for one of [[The Three Musketeers (novel)|The Three Musketeers]] (by one of the ''actual'' Musketeers), but even to take on a small mob of swordsmen by himself.
* [[Go-Karting with Bowser]]: In the Rocky and Bullwinkle Fan Club segments, Boris and Natasha are members of said fan club.
Line 171 ⟶ 175:
* [[Planet of Steves]]: Throughout the series, there are always two different guys (and two fish in one episode) named Chauncey and Edgar pointing out something that's out of the ordinary.

* [[Puppet Shows]]: In one of the network runs the segments were introduced by a Bullwinkle puppet. The puppet suddenly disappeared shortly after Bullwinkle said "Say kids, you know [[Technology Marches On|that knob that changes the channel]] on your TV comes off? Why don't you pull it off right now! Then you'll be sure to be here next week! And the week after that! And the week after that! And the week..."
* [[Recruiting the Criminal]]: Rather than sending him to jail, Zero is sent to do a job where his skill at making [[Zorro Mark|zero marks]] is useful. What is this job? [[Take That|Scorekeeper for the New York Mets]].
Line 236 ⟶ 238:
* [[Villain Episode]]: More like villain movie. Boris and Natasha starred in their own movie eight years before Rocky and Bullwinkle did.
* [[Vocal Evolution]]: In the beginning of the show, everyone (including the narrator) spoke in a very low tone. Also, Captain Peachfuzz had a high-pitch squwak-like voice that sounded like a typical cartoon parrot in ''Jet Fuel Formula''. After that story, his voice was then based on Ed Wynn.
* [[Wayback Trip]]: The Peabody segments are the [[Trope Namer]] and possibly the [[Trope Maker]].
* [[Who's on First?]]: In a ''Bullwinkle's Corner'' segment where Bullwinkle and Boris perform ''Simple Simon'', they transition into this over the word "ware".
* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?]]: For someone called Fearless Leader, it is shown that Pottsylvanian TV is too much for him.
