| Dudley Do-Right | comment |
Originally a supporting character on Rocky and Bullwinkle, Dudley Do-Right was an endearingly (to the audience, at least) incompetent officer of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, spoofing silent-movie melodramas. Apparently the only officer in his regiment, Dudley took orders from Inspector Ray Fenwick while protecting the inspector's daughter, Nell, as well as the rest of Canada, from the schemes of the wicked Snidely Whiplash. Or so he thinks. Truth is, Dudley mostly saves the day by sheer luck or the competence of his horse, but he nevertheless takes credit just the same.In the late 1960s, Dudley headlined his own half-hour Animated Anthology series on ABC, which repackaged the original Jay Ward-produced Dudley segments from Rocky and Bullwinkle along with additional cartoons from Total Television. In 1999, Universal released a live-action Dudley Do-Right movie directed by Hugh Wilson and starring Brendan Fraser, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Alfred Molina. That same year, the show went on to inspire a log flume attraction at Universal's Islands of Adventure, titled, Dudley Do-Right's Ripsaw Falls.Dudley and Snidely later made guest appearances in the 2014 Rocky and Bullwinkle short, included in the Blu-ray 3D release of Mr. Peabody & Sherman as a bonus feature. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed: Dudley is (to some extent, at least) a caricature of Nelson Eddy's Mountie character in Rudolf Friml's Rose-Marie, and has a tendency to break into Eddy's signature melody, "Shortnin' Bread." | |

| Dudley Do-Right / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: While the film was a box office failure, it somewhat retains the style of comedy we all know and love in Dudley Do-Right. However a chunk of the film focuses on Dudley being the bad guy in order to ruin Whiplash's reputation as the Bad Guy doing good. What does Dudley do as his first act of evil? He takes Snidely's best henchman and tortures him with a sawmill. It's really papier mache, but he didn't know that. | |

Simple Solution Won't Work: In "Log Jam", when Snidley, using a phony business called Mother Whiplash's Log Jam, causes a log jam that prevents all the timber in Canada from going down the river, Dudley asks Inspector Fenwick why they don't just arrest him. The Inspector replies that his alias of Mother Whiplash would provoke every mother in Canada. | |

Genre Savvy | |
| Dudley Do-Right / int_1777688d | comment |
Genre Savvy: The 1999 live-action film has this in spades. The characters are fully aware that they inhabit a formulaic melodrama, and they're quite comfortable with all the attendant absurdities. Any deviation from the fixed conventions of the genre, however, causes them deep existential anxiety and confusion. | |

Long Lost Sibling: "Mother Love" has Snidely Whiplash print a fake newspaper article claiming that he's Dudley's long-lost younger brother. Dudley falls for it and quits the force to look after Snidely, who gets embarrassed about being treated like a child. So he has Homer print a retraction of the first story, which reveals the truth to Dudley. | |

Lawful Stupid | |
| Dudley Do-Right / int_1e12b5b7 | comment |
Lawful Stupid: Dudley. In one notable episode, Snidely kidnaps Nell at her wedding to Dudley. A couple days later, Dudley receives a letter from his abducted bride delivered from Snidely's sawmill. He refuses to open it because it isn't stamped. So he rides to the sawmill, gets Nell (who is tied to a log being fed into the sawblades) to stamp the letter, then rides back to the Mountie post before opening it. An hour and a half later, after finally receiving coherent orders to rescue Nell (Inspector Fenwick flubbed a line), he rides back to the sawmill (thankfully, the sawmill was seriously in need of maintenance or else Nell would have been in pieces by this point). After saving Nell, he then proceeds to arrest her for mail fraud since what she put on the envelope wasn't a legal stamp. | |

Batman Gambit: In "Coming Out Party", Inspector Fenwick decides to give Nell a coming out party, despite the fact that she's thirty-seven, and invite Snidely Whiplash. The reason? Fenwick figures that Snidely won't be able to resist a good party. Then he'll check his top hat and cape, which will be replaced with a checked coat and a Bullwinkle hat: a beanie with moose antlers. Fenwick reasons that when Snidely tries to collect mortgages wearing a moose hat, he'll be laughed out of every home he tries to seize. The plan works, but then Dudley tries on Snidely's top hat and cape and goes berserk. He calls himself "Archvillain Dudley Do-Right" and ties at least twenty-seven old ladies to the railroad tracks. | |

Idiot Hero: Yeah. One memorable incident involved Dudley discovering his commanding officer Bound and Gagged, but simply thinking he was bundled up against the cold, and deciding to throw another log on the fire. However... Fortunately for them both, the fire cooked off the ammunition, which scared off the criminals that had taken over the post. The Movie gives us an example when Dudley decides to test whether or not the woman at the door who claims to be Nell is a vampire (Snidely put the idea in his head that vampires were about) by asking her a question any true Canadian would know: What is Wayne Gretzky's middle name?note Douglas, if you're curious. Nell points out that she doesn't know and then asks if he knows. Dudley realizes he doesn't, and then realizes something worse: | |

Ambiguous Time Period: The show is vaguely set somewhere in the range of the 1890s to the 1920s or so. Some episodes get more specific, but such specifics are never maintained consistently from episode to episode due to the use of Negative Continuity. Either that or no one ever ages. | |

Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: Inspector Fenwick instructed Dudley to get himself kicked out of the service in order to investigate Snidely Whiplash's fur-smuggling operation while in disguise. Dudley's attempts had initially backfired, as the building he burned down was condemned anyway and blowing up the dam solved an irrigation crisis. When instructed by Fenwick to not try, Dudley actually succeeded in the step by eating peas with a knife, something no Mountie should ever do. | |

Chained to a Railway | |
| Dudley Do-Right / int_872b9e12 | comment |
Chained to a Railway: The very opening sequence of the show. One episode portrayed it as an addiction for Snidely. He not only ties women to railroad tracks, but Nell, Horse, Inspector Fenwick, and even himself. "Niagara Falls" has Snidely tie Dudley to train tracks, only to become overcome with guilt and pull the switch to prevent the train from hitting Dudley. "Snidely Arrested" once again addresses Snidely's addiction to the crime. He actually wants to kick the habit, and he actually seems happy when Inspector Fenwick and Dudley's trap locks him in a cage. However, Nell had been studying the law books and actually wants Snidely released. A trial is held later, and Dudley and the inspector try to prove Whiplash guilty with the help of witnesses, but Nell reveals how his obsession with tying people to railroad tracks stemmed from a childhood mania of tying things in knots, and Dudley, moved by her speech, lets Snidely go free. One story's last panel features an insurance salesman trying to sell Snidely Whiplash a special villains' policy by saying it'll cover him if he's struck by a train while tying someone to a railroad track. | |

Continuity Snarl: Happens once in a while. For example, in "Matinee Idol", Dudley doesn't know what movies are, despite having been familiar with them in previous shorts. | |

Plot Allergy | |
| Dudley Do-Right / int_e064dc5a | comment |
Plot Allergy: When Snidely Whiplash finds out that Dudley's allergic to marigolds, the former plants marigolds on his clothes so the latter can't get near him without sneezing. When Dudley tells Nell what happened, she plants crabgrass on Snidely's suit to kill the marigolds. | |

Hard Head | |
| Dudley Do-Right / int_e280b250 | comment |
Hard Head: Subverted in "Flicker Rock" when Dudley initially seems unharmed by having a boulder dropped on his head but then begins having visual and audio hallucinations. Nell bringing him back to the scene of the crime fixes it, Easy Amnesia style. | |

Disguised in Drag: Dudley and Snidely Whiplash both dress like Nell in "Railroad Tracks", and Inspector Fenwick mistakes the real Nell for Whiplash. | |

All Animals Are Dogs: Snidely once trained an elephant named Spot to scratch behind his ears, and used Spot to win a dog-sled contest in Skagway. | |

Bound and Gagged | |
| Dudley Do-Right / int_eb28ab57 | comment |
Yeah. One memorable incident involved Dudley discovering his commanding officer Bound and Gagged, but simply thinking he was bundled up against the cold, and deciding to throw another log on the fire. However... | |

Showing Up Chauvinists | |
| Dudley Do-Right / int_ed508250 | comment |
Showing Up Chauvinists: In one episode, Dudley and Nell switch places, with Dudley keeping house while Nell becomes a Mountie. Nell ends up managing to capture every criminal and lowlife in Canada, to the dismay of Dudley and Inspector Fenwick, who fear this could lead to women's suffrage. | |

A Dog Named "Dog": Horse, Dudley's horse. And as a once-removed example, Dudley's recurring pet wolf, Faithful Dog (named after... it's a long story). | |

Comedic Underwear Exposure | |
| Dudley Do-Right / int_f08f8f89 | comment |
Comedic Underwear Exposure: Dudley and Snidely have both been victims of this a few times. One notable example is at the end of "The Masked Ginny Lynne", when after, Nell's singing puts her father to sleep, Snidely and his accomplice steal the uniforms of both the inspector and Dudley right under their noses and sneak away. | |

In Foreclosing Mortgages, Dudley fails to make the payment on the Mountie Camp due to Nell using the money for clothes shopping. When Inspector Fenwick berates him, Dudley points out that he was the one who lost the camp to Snidely Whiplash due to gambling. | |

Dumbass Has a Point: In Foreclosing Mortgages, Dudley fails to make the payment on the Mountie Camp due to Nell using the money for clothes shopping. When Inspector Fenwick berates him, Dudley points out that he was the one who lost the camp to Snidely Whiplash due to gambling. In "The Centaur", when Inspector Fenwick comments that Dudley's horse is essential to keep up the camp's morale as he's the only horse on the post, Dudley points out that it doesn't really make sense that the mounties only have one horse, but the Inspector cuts him off and disregards it. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Dudley Do-Right / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: In "Elevenworth Prison", when Dudley brings the phone to Inspector Fenwick, the latter, who was in the bathtub, states that he was about to sink the Lusitaina (really a toy boat). At the end, Dudley finds the inspector in prison with him, Whiplash, Rollo and the warden of Elevenworth Prison. When asked why he was there, Fenwick reveals that he got ten years for sinking the Lusitaina. In "Mountie Without a Horse", Snidely Whiplash poses as Colonel Crimcrammer and issues an order stating that all Mounties should ride rocking horses. Later, when the real colonel shows up and asks to make some changes to the camp, he sits on a rocking horse when he starts to discuss his ideas. | |
