In the light of the sale of the satirical cartoon show Danger Mouse to American television, the series' British producers assembled its biggest season yet, with no fewer than 24 episodes in its season six manifest. For openers, there is "Once Upon a Time Slip," in which super-spy Danger Mouse and assistant Penfold are accidentally transported to the future -- by the series' narrator! Later adventures take our heroes to Stonehenge, Egypt, Mexico, and the Swiss Alps. Also on deck are a musical adventure (with "singing credits"), a sneeze that causes the sneezer to change costumes with each ker-choo, a recalcitrant car that threatens to spoil Danger Mouse's award ceremony, a toadying henchman helpfully taking over the villainy when the sinister Baron Greenback takes a long-overdue vacation, and Penfold's brief career as a caped superhero. The season's final episode is "Journey to the Earth's...'Cor," wherein Danger Mouse tries to stem noise pollution at the center of the earth. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
