Arthur and the Square Knights of the Round Table
A slightly surreal 60's take on the King Arthur legend, sometimes compared in style with 'Rocky and Bullwinkle'. Basically it's all the characters you'd expect, but not always behaving AS you'd expect. The Black Knight, for instance, seems to end up in drag a fair bit.
