__NOTOC__ Dudley Do-Right, created by Alex Anderson with Chris Hayward and Allan Burns, is the hero of "Dudley Do-Right of the Mounties", a segment on ''The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show'' that parodied early 20th century melodrama and silent film (the "northern"), using only a piano as a musical background. ==Overview== Dudley Do-Right is a dim-witted, but conscientious and cheerful Canadian Mountie who is always trying to catch his nemesis, Snidely Whiplash, and rescue damsel in distress Nell Fenwick, his boss's daughter, with whom Dudley is deeply infatuated. He usually succeeds only by pure luck or through the actions of his horse, named "Horse". A running gag throughout the series is Nell's great affection for Horse and her disregard for Dudley. Dudley Do-Right made a cameo in a "Rocky and Bullwinkle Fan Club" segment as the hero in "She Can't Pay the Rent", a play staged by Boris Badenov. Rocky and Bullwinkle also appeared as cameos in "Mountie Bear". In the ''Tom Slick'' episode "Snow What" (September 30, 1967), a former Royal Mountie, called "Royal Mountie", is in the race. He is obviously Dudley Do-Right. In the standard intro, Dudley is seen mounted backward on his horse. Dudley's character and design are to a great extent a parody of the Mountie Sergeant Malone (the name varies in different productions) in Rudolf Friml's 1924 operetta, ''Rose-Marie'', particularly as portrayed in the 1936 film version by baritone Nelson Eddy, as is demonstrated by Dudley's tendency to break into Eddy's (fortunately public domain) signature tune, "Shortnin' Bread." To a lesser extent, Nell may be a parody of Eddy's frequent co-star, the red-haired soprano Jeanette MacDonald. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dudley Do-Right」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
