A reign of cats and dogs

I wanted to take a minute to acknowledge the passing of Ted Key, who created my favorites from the Jay Ward studios, Mr. Peabody and Sherman.



He also wrote a Disney movie I remember well from my youth, "The Cat from Outer Space,"


I have no idea if he was responsible for that film's M*A*S*H in-joke (it feels like something the actors came up with on the day).

I really know very little else about him (at least I didn't until I read this death announcement), but his work had some importance in my life.
