Proposed Appearances
Dastardly and Muttley were to appear in the series The Perils of Penelope Pitstop, where they (especially Dastardly) would have been perfect villains given the tone and the Perils of Pauline references, rather they were imagined to be the bodyguards of a younger brother of Penelope. However, this was only in the first sketches of the series, and the two did not appear in the final work. At one of their encounters, the Hooded Claw did ask Penelope, "Were you expecting Dick Dastardly?" possibly in reference to the above unshot scene.
In the unaired pilot of the new Wacky Races series, Wacky Races Forever, Dastardly and Muttley would have been the main villains, working for the vice-president of Perfect Industries, in an attempt to stop the other racers from crossing the finish line. Unfortunately, the series was not picked up.

Famous quotes containing the words proposed and/or appearances:
“We have no one to blame for the Kennedys but ourselves. We took the Kennedys to heart of our own accord. And it is my opinion that we did it not because we respected them or thought what they proposed was good, but because they were pretty. We, the electorate, were smitten by this handsome, vivacious family.... We wanted to hug their golden tousled heads to our dumpy breasts.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
“The appearances of goodness and merit often meet with a greater reward from the world than goodness and merit themselves.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
