"Dastardly & Muttley in Their Flying Machines" was a classic Hanna-Barbera cartoon that aired on CBS. The show followed the comically villainous Dick Dastardly and his snickering canine co-pilot, Muttley. As leaders of the Vulture Squadron, their sole mission was to "Stop the Pigeon!" This target, the heroic Yankee Doodle Pigeon, was a patriotic messenger who always managed to outsmart their elaborate traps while carrying vital information for the good guys.
Each episode featured Dastardly creating absurdly complex aircraft and contraptions. Inevitably, his plans would backfire spectacularly, leading to his famous cry, "Drat, and double drat!" Muttley would often grumble and demand a medal before helping his failing leader. The show has ended, but sign up for a reminder just in case it returns.

Dick Dastardly and Muttley (the villains from the "Wacky Races" cartoon) are flying aces and members of the Vulture Squadron -- a crew of aviators on a mission to stop a homing pigeon named Yankee Doodle Pigeon from delivering messages to the other side. This show was a combination of the Red Baron-era Snoopy, "Wacky Races" and the film "Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines."
