Celebrity Toons: When The Moon Comes Over The Werewolf (Laverne & Shirley in The Army, 1981)

 From season 1 of Laverne & Shirley in The Army:

The girls (Penny Marshall & Cindy Williams) and Sgt. Squealy (Ron Palillo) wind up in some seriously creepy trouble, crossing paths with a mad scientist and his assistant, Talbot, who looks like the kind of guy the girls would fall for. He's also a callback to a certain film franchise in "When The Moon Comes Over The Werewolf".


Were the series to be done today, Sgt. Squealy wouldn't so much of a misogynist as he was depicted here. Of course, we've lost both Penny Marshall and Ron Palillo since the series ended, so the part would be recast anyway.

No rating. Just a public service.
