The Bullwinkle Show (1959)

Episode Overview

Bullwinkle shares the poem "Taffy," but as he narrates, Boris, playing Taffy, starts to improvise and exaggerate his lines. Instead of just stealing "a piece of beef," Taffy swipes an entire cow. This frustrates Bullwinkle, who feels the original poem is being distorted. He believes he’s got Boris cornered with the final line: "I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was in bed. I took a marrow bone and hit him on the head." However, when they reach Taffy's house, Boris snatches the marrow bone and strikes Bullwinkle, leading to a rather unfortunate conclusion, which amuses Boris greatly.
