Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines

 is a cartoon produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions for CBS. Originally the series was broadcast as a Saturday morning cartoon, airing from September 13, 1969 to January 3, 1970. The show focuses on the efforts of Dick Dastardly and his canine sidekick Muttley to catch Yankee Doodle Pigeon, a carrier pigeon who carries secret messages (hence the name of the show’s theme song "Stop the Pigeon").

Theme song

 * Dick Dastardly:
 * Muttley, you snickering floppy-eared hound!
 * When courage is needed, you're never around!
 * Those medals you wear on your moth-eaten chest
 * Should be for bungling, in which you are best!


 * So, stop the pigeon, stop the pigeon
 * Stop the pigeon, stop the pigeon
 * Stop the pigeon, stop the pigeon
 * Stop the pigeon, HOW?!
 * Nab him, jab him, tab him, grab him
 * Stop that pigeon, NOW!


 * You, Zilly, stop sneaking, it's not worth the chance
 * For you'll be returned by the seat of your pants!
 * And Klunk, you invent me a thingamabob
 * That catches that pigeon or I'll lose my job!


 * So, stop the pigeon, stop the pigeon
 * Stop the pigeon, stop the pigeon
 * Stop the pigeon, stop the pigeon
 * Stop the pigeon, HOW?!
 * Nab him, jab him, tab him, grab him
 * Stop that pigeon, NOW!
