I should have listened to that song more, but I was about to Roam Around the World.

Shortly before they were kidnapped and sold into the terrible chipmunk slave trade.

No, because Jinks's catchphrase was, "I hate those mieces to pieces!"
Btw, Jinks and Dixie had the same voice actor, Charles "Daws" Butler. Pixie was voiced by Don Messick. Between them, Butler and Messick played just about every major Hanna-Barbera character of the 50s and 60s.

Ah. I must have gotten confused - I seem to remember one series where Mr. Jinks, Pixie and Dixie were part of a larger gathering of Hanna-Barbera characters on a treasure hunt or something. Led by Yogi Bear and with Top Cat handing out missions.

Yes, unfortunately, during the 70s and 80s, Hanna-Barbera put all their funny-animal characters together in cartoon shows that couldn't hold a candle to the classic 50s and 60s shorts. I mean, as far as I'm concerned, either they should portray Yogi Bear as a greedy glutton, or just shouldn't put him in any more cartoons! Just my opinion.

Nice list, Quis!
Although what I loved about Droopy, was the comedy of how he was usually so placid... but always moved around faster than his opponents did!

I watched a lot of Bugs Bunny, so I'm not falling into that trap!

Mousetrap is both a play by Agatha Christie and a family game.

I went to see the Mousetrap not long ago. You're not supposed to give away the ending. Which is pretty easy, since I can't remember it.
Mousetrap the game was one we had but never really played. I can't recall if it took too long to set up or if there was a fidgety bit. I don't even think it was bought for me. I think it was my siblings. As I spend time working out the complexities of today's board games, taking a couple of nights to read the rules, and a couple of play tests to get the hang of it, I look back on fidgety games of yore with some fondness.

I played the Mousetrap game for a bit. That darned ball would never bounce quite right.

I remember the cage falling down during play a lot too.

"I've fallen, and I can't get up!" is a famous catchphrase of the late 1980s and early 1990s popular culture based upon a line from a United States-based television commercial.

A recent version of that commercial includes a warning at the beginning that it is based on real events and may be too intense for some viewers. This shows you just how coddled old people are today! They even have to put trigger warnings on their medical alert device commercials!
