if i recall tubi tv has that cartoon, but i'll have to double check later

Yes, I remember the 1963 TV series, from King Features Syndicate. And that means without national distribution, the TV show was a very local affair.

Is Beetle Bailey still rocking as a Sunday Funny?

That's not a military base, it's a resort lol

But yeah, it rocks as an everyday funny in my book.

Gone are the days of morning physical conditioning and ten mile hikes in full gear. Beetle Bailey's army was the better way to serve. 

You made me laugh when you linked to the episode where Cookie is eating a spaghetti sauce covered mop!

I hope they do a Hagar the Horrible cartoon someday. If they haven't already,
