Production notes

This episode was originally broadcast on the Rocky and His Friends show.

Fractured Fairy Tales was narrated by famous character actor Edward Everett Horton and lampooned such classic tales as Cinderella, Rapunzel, and The Frog Prince (the latter of which was spun off into the later series The Adventures of Hoppity Hooper).
