Oh, no I remember the show from the first time around. LOVED the fractured fairy tale segment ("ya gotta SUFFER!" - The Shoemaker and the Elves, I think) mostly because of Edward Everett Horton's narration. I was just old enough to "get" the grownup zingers built into the stories. Laid the path for Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, in a way (and yes, Bart Simpson et al.) In any event it appealed to my warped sense of humor, still does.
