The Wacky Racers did not work for The Kaiser, nor was the cartoon set in World War I. Did you mean to make a different guess?

MTM?

A little accidental humor??

"cause he gets up in the morning"

You say "Of course", but it's a bit before my time. It's not quite as obvious to me.

How many cartoons can you name where the main characters worked for The Kaiser? I can only name one. In fairness, the name "the Kaiser" never appears in the cartoon. However, this cartoon was visibly set in one country in one specific time-frame, which means the main characters HAD TO work for The Kaiser. Their insignia make it almost obvious, if one actually stops to think about it, which nobody ever did. The regular characters were guys who worked together, and one American character who was their enemy....who kept winning. He was kinda smug about it. It's funny to say that when he never uttered a single word, but it was also obvious he was smug and celebrated his victories over the others. I will accept the correct name- for bragging rights, the full correct name. I will also accept the common INcorrect name the show is often called by people if they remember it at all. The official name of this cartoon is a bit lengthy and cumbersome. (I never had any problem reading or remembering it growing up.) The incorrect, unofficial nickname the show has picked up is based on the show's theme song. It had a full theme song, complete with lyrics, sung by the main protagonist (the other main protagonist never had lines.) People incorrectly confuse the name of the song- and the mission of the characters- with the name of the cartoon. Since the beginning of the cartoon show always began with the name of the show onscreen as the song began, I never quite understood why the adults always seemed to get this one wrong. This cartoon had 2 protagonists, 2 main supporting characters, one antagonist, and the rest. The one antagonist wasn't human, but was American. The 2 protagonists had been introduced in a previous cartoon that's reasonably well-known, and have appeared in more obscure cartoons since then. This cartoon is not in the same continuity as the more famous cartoon since the more famous one takes place decades later (late 20th century, it appears), and this one is obviously early 20th century, based on the events and the technology. Of the 2 protagonists, 1 is human, and the other is probably smarter, and definitely better-liked by the audience. Of their supporting characters, one is absolutely necessary for the cartoon, and the other is needed because of the odd thing about the one who is necessary, but is otherwise useless. In the Spanish version, their names rhyme and basically imply they're both idiots. (In the case of the former, I think that's a bit harsh.) In the English version, their names are not connected. These characters work for the Kaiser's military, as is plainly obvious from watching the cartoon. Both this cartoon and the one that introduced the protagonists could be seen as defined by the methods of transportation used by the characters.

Before I saw his reply, my first thought was "Fifty bucks." So, probably that, but I could be wrong. Everything else was retail, too. Food costs were retail. Everything in the bookstore was retail. Showers cost money, but not a lot. Then again, they were set up more like an institution, so no privacy. Naturally, at least once during the evening teachings, they passed the baskets around for donations (in my experience, once a week during them, not once each night.) Interesting how food costs were retail, when the workers were all volunteers. As always, twi was organized to run everything at a profit, down to the least items. Pay the people nothing, pay nothing for locations/have the locals cover it out-of-pocket, charge everyone retail prices for all items, make everything possible in-house before charging retail, shake the people down for a 10% mandatory donation, then guilt them into giving more..... Although under lcm, the mandatory 10% went as high as 20%. There was the mandatory "tithe" (which means "tenth" of 10%, 15 or 20% depending on the era. Then there were the shakedowns for "abundant sharing", which were above that, and people were guilted into paying. Under lcm (possibly sooner, but I only heard lcm speak of it), they invented "plurality giving." The concept there.... figure out what you need to live on. Everything else you make above that, you give to twi, period. Do not save money, do not invest money, do not pay for insurance. BTW, while doing this, you weren't allowed to go into debt, either. How were people supposed to get anything? Well, remember those family members who weren't in twi? The ones we were supposed to blow off if they weren't in twi? Well, we were expected to shake them down for financial help. The only savings allowed was to receive an inheritance when someone died or something....and you were expected to tithe on that, too. Naturally, none of this applied to the people at the top, who lived well at twi's expense, not even counting any money that they received as a salary. rfr had twi peons working for her, doing her yardwork and housework and maintaining her boat, etc. twi covered any expenses there- not that the people were paid even like day laborers, they were serfs to twi. Naturally, all of that started with vpw, who considered anything belonging to twi as "his." Some things owned by twi were reserved for his specific use, and all expenses were paid for by twi. That was done after him, and if someone told me that stopped now, I'd say they didn't know what they thought they knew, and were being deceived by the people who still benefited from this system.

Is this "AQUARIUS"??

In the late 80s it was done, and my impression was that it was done every year and was expected. In my experience, twi'ers paid retail for everything, always. For an alleged "church" group, that's unusual. The "church" groups twi usually made fun of didn't do that to their membership.

Makes sense. The author was "Richard Bachman." Richard Bachman was a pen name for STEPHEN KING. He wrote under a pen name to see if his books only sold because they had his name attached to them. (Bachman's books became successful enough a reporter started looking into Bachman, and found SK's signature on something.... When re-released as SK books, those books sold a lot better. So, with a nobody's name on them, they sold well. With SK's name, they sold even better.) Fun movie. Props for Dweezil Zappa's line- "Don't touch that dial." "WHAT'S THE GREATEST TELEVISION SHOW IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD?" "THE RUNNING MAN!!!" "WHO LOVES YOU AND WHO DO YOU LOVE?" "KILLIAN!!!" "IT'S SHOWTIME!!!" (No, not a round, I just like those lines.)

What you said was correct, so "Peanuts" is not it. In other news, I guarantee you that the American/good guy was not a dog (nor any form of canine.) He was, however, very obviously patriotic. I don't recall the Red Baron himself ever appearing in this cartoon. However, that having been said, that doesn't mean the rest of the main cast.....

No. Think for a moment. Why did the American never utter a single word?

That's it.

"I've got a bad feeling about this." "It's not my fault!" "I know."

"A Society gentleman would only go out with you for one reason: to have a good time, a few laughs, and a little vo-deo-doh-doh." "I don't vo-deo-doh-doh!" "You vo-deo-doh-doh." "I don't vo-deo-doh-doh!" "You vo-deo." "Once. I was going steady a whole year. I have a spotless reputation." "I am going to mold you. How does that make you feel?" "Like old bread." "The only kinda parties we've ever been to are bring your own!" "I like bringin' my own... then I know what I'm gettin'." "I'm telling you, flying is safer than driving! Nobody has ever crashed into a cloud!" "Yeah well nobody ever fell 40,000 feet from a DeSoto either."

"HALLOWEEN 2"??

Next round. How many cartoons can you name where the main characters worked for The Kaiser? I can only name one. I will accept the correct name- for bragging rights, the full correct name. I will also accept the common INcorrect name the show is often called by people if they remember it at all.

One day later would be "All Souls' Day", with..... OK, OK, "HALLOWEEN", with Michael Myers, old William Shatner-face.
