Dudley Do-Right was the eponymous hero of a segment on The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show which parodied early 20th century melodrama and silent film. Dudley Do-Right was a Canadian Mountie who was always trying to catch his nemesis Snidely Whiplash, whom he never seemed to be able to catch. He was romantically pursued by Nell Fenwick, the daughter of the head of the Mountie station. However, a running gag throughout the series was Nell's interest in Dudley's horse, to the point that she scarcely noticed Dudley's interest.
In 1969 Dudley Do-Right became its own show, The Dudley Do-Right Show
In 1999 a live action movie starring Brendan Fraser and Sarah Jessica Parker was released.
