Saturday School: The Little Scouts (The Littles, 1983)

 From season 1 of The Littles:

In what may be a harbinger of things to come, "The Little Scouts" are a co-ed scouting program, with Grandpa (Alvy Moore) as scoutmaster. As usual, clumsy Dinky proves to be little more than comedy relief.


This was another episode where Henry and his family were in absentia. It would've been too easy for writer Jeffrey Scott to have Henry be a boy scout, too, so that his troop would be on the same trail, but Scott chose not to take that direction. Good thing, too.

Rating: A-.
