Mr Wizard from Tutor Turtle?

(27,247 posts)King Leonardo's stock phrase, while talking to his skunk prime minister, Odie Colonie. (It took me several years before it hit me that "Odie Colonie" was a play on "Eau de Cologne"!
And that's what Mr. Wizard the Lizard would say each time after Tutor tried to be something he wasn't and failed. Interesting that both Tutor and the character who was the star of that show, Tennessee Tuxedo, were both animals that tried to do human things, and always got into trouble for their effort.

I think the second one is from Dudley Do-Right, maybe Dudley himself?
Hmm?
Art_from_Ark
(27,247 posts)"When you're right, Number One, you're right" was from one of those secret agent cartoon shows. I want to say Secret Squirrel or Inspector Gadget, but I think it was some other secret agent.
I think the only character on Dudley Do-Right who had a stock expression was Snidely Whiplash-- "Curses, foiled again!"
