We had this up before, and then, it was deleted. Now, it's back.
Mort Walker's Beetle Bailey returned to television for the first time in an animated cartoon in several years. Unfortunately, while the special was produced for CBS, the network was undergoing management changes at the time, and backed away.
This show did air overseas, which is why it has been available online off and on. Hank Saroyan (Jim Henson's Muppet Babies) teamed with Walker on the script. The only familiar voices heard here are Henry Corden as Sgt. Snorkel (the part was essayed by Allan Melvin in the 60's), and Frank Welker (Smurfs, Real Ghostbusters, etc.) as Snorkel's canine sidekick, Otto, and dim-witted Zero. Corden's name getting misspelled might've been a bad omen.
