Rich Little, Supersleuth.

WAIT TILL YOUR FATHER GETS HOME, the only successful, animated sitcom in the 27 year gap between the FLINTSTONES and SIMPSONS, progresses to its 45th regular episode...

Popular Saturday Morning cartoons sometimes get a short second production season to crank out a handful of new episodes to freshen the rotation when the show goes into a mostly-rerun second broadcast year. But WTYFGH was a prime-time sitcom and had completed two full production seasons of 22 episodes each. I'm kind of at a loss for why they did a third, short production season. It wasn't enough to put the show across the threshold for secondary strip syndication. It seems like they either would have done another full season or finished with the two.

This season premier features legendary celebrity voice impersonator Rich Little in a story designed to let him demonstrate his talents. Rich Little is still with us and active at 82. But I don't think the same can be said for any of the celebs he impersonates here.

From September 1974.
