Comments left:	"Lariat Sam" was Bob Keeshan's brainchild. He had creative control. He wanted "Lariat Sam" to be non-violent (like "Tom Terrific") and suitable to run on "Captain Kangaroo." "Lariat Sam" 5-part episodes were made in 1961-62. Toward 1970, Action For Children's Television influenced Keeshan to stop running cartoons, and to emphasize more on education. More on Ralph Bakshi. On video, I saw the end credits to "Deputy Dawg" and "Hector Heathcote," Bakshi was part of the animation team at Terry Toons, starting in 1962. His work was on made-for-TV cartoons, not the older theatricals. Bakshi also worked on "Astronut" (1963-65) and "Possible Possum" (1966-68). "Spunky and Tadpole" wasn't aired in my area when I grew up. I'll have to look it up.
