The Secret Lives of Waldo Kitty

The Secret Lives of Waldo Kitty (later called The New Adventures of Waldo Kitty) is an animated and partially live-action television series produced by Filmation, which originally aired in Saturday mornings on NBC from. The series was inspired by James Thurber's 1939 short story "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty", and his widow Helen Thurber sued Filmation in 1975 for creating the series without the permission of her husband's estate.

Each episode began with live-action footage of Waldo and his girlfriend and trusty companion, Felicia, who were usually bullied by Tyrone, a bulldog. Waldo would then daydream about being a superhero and coming to the rescue of others. The series contained a lot of satire per the request of Filmation and cited television series such as Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In and the magazine Mad as the reason why.
