Wow....no reviews of this one YET?? One of the MASTERPIECES of the H-B series.....though that's not ultimately saying much, MOST of them are masterpieces. Hanna-Barbera flawlessly adopted the new UPA stylized graphics to suit their own needs, and the interactions of Jerry and his stidk-figure double are endlessly hilarious.
