Milton the Monster
Milton the Monster, also called The Milton the Monster Show, is an American Saturday-morning animated television series that ran on ABC from October 9, 1965, to September 8, 1968. It was produced and directed by Hal Seeger.
The setting of the series is a haunted house on Horror Hill. The series features Milton, a Frankenstein-like monster created by a mad scientist. Due to an error in the creation process, Milton is tender and good-natured instead of being sinister.
The series starred Milton the Monster, a Frankenstein-looking monster with a flat-topped, seemingly hollow head which emitted various quantities of white steam or smoke based on his mood or situation. He was created by mad scientist Professor Montgomery Weirdo and his assistant Count Kook, who lived in a haunted house on Horror Hill. Milton is a smiling, good-natured fellow, thanks to the Professor having used too much "tincture of tenderness" as explained in the opening theme of each individual Milton the Monster segment. Milton was created not of individual body parts, but rather in a mold from such liquids as "essence of terror" and "sinister sauce." Out of fear of his creation destroying him, Professor Weirdo intended to add just a touch of the aforementioned tincture of tenderness to the mold, but Count Kook bumped the Professor's elbow, resulting in too much of the tincture being added to the mix. Milton's voice, which was based on the southern accent used by Jim Nabors in his television role as Gomer Pyle, was provided by Bob McFadden who also provided voices for Professor Weirdo's resident monsters:
Professor Weirdo's nemesis was Professor Fruitcake, another mad scientist who lived in a castle on an opposite hill. Professor Fruitcake's major creation was Zelda the Zombie (who only appears in one episode). Other characters in the series included Fangenstein, a biker monster apparently inspired by Marlon Brando, his sidekick Abercrombie the Zombie (who is sometimes Milton's friend), and Professor Weirdo's aunt, the witchy Aunt Hagatha.
Other features on the show included:
Principal characters and voices:
On March 20, 2007, Shout! Factory released the complete series on a 4-DVD set. However it has since become out of print, making copies of the DVD online fetch for high prices.
