About Marcia Studley Expertise I`m a true member of the tv generation! I grew up doing my homework while watching the classics of the 60`s and 70`s and today, they are still my favorites. I have a big library of tv and film reference books at my disposal, as well as a large video library. My memory is pretty darn good too, and when that fails, I can hit the books and/or videos, not to mention a few friends who are as devout tv gen members as I am. Please note that my expertise is with American tv only.
Question Hi,
This has been bothering me all week. I remember an episode ( I'm almost
positive it is a warner bros episode but might be Hanna Barbera) where there
was a dog that would complete a request from his master, but only after being
given a snack. He would ask for it by pointing into his mouth and saying "uh uh
uh" (as in "feed me") and when the box of treats were revealed he would say
"yeah yeah yeah" in a dog-like pant. The owner would proceed to give the dog
his treat.
The dog would then perform a ritual of hugging himself with delight with a high
pitched "mmm..... mmmm..... mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" almost like he was
getting aroused. He then shot straight into the air and floated down in a relaxed
position, (almost like a falling leaf) whilst releasing a gentle "aaaaaaaaaaah"
sound, and a satisfied expression on his face. After this ritual he would perform
the requested duty.
It was very funny and I'd love to be able to view it again. I think he was brown
and was like a bull dog or something of that description.
Please let me know if this rings any bells, as I've performed this ritual to a few
people and although they have found it extremely amusing, they have no idea
what I'm talking about.
Thank you for any efforts in advance and good luck!!!
Danny...
Answer Hi Danny,
I honestly thought I'd answered this for you several days ago. I remember typing it, so I think something glitched, and I just noticed in my 'unanswered questions' batch. So, sorry for the delay -- can never trust cyberspace.
