Rare Treats: Bat Beagle (1961)

 Sam Singer is known mostly for producing Courageous Cat, and flopping so badly on Sinbad, Jr., such that American International fired him.

In between, Singer pitched a Bat Masterson parody, Bat Beagle, in 1961. However, this was set not in the old west, but in the then-present of the period, and the bridge is the same one used in Courageous Cat. Prolific Dallas McKennon handles all the voices in the unsold pilot, "The Case of Sour Puss".


This K-9 parody remained locked away until it was discovered recently, and posted to YouTube.

Rating: B--.

Oh, snap! While this has zero to do with the subject matter, I'll get something up either here or at Land of Whatever soon.
