On the latest installment of Trust Fund Challenge, Ric and I watch an episode of Lassie's Rescue Rangers, a short-lived '70s Saturday morning cartoon that was essentially a Scooby Doo takeoff. Only remove the amusing talking dog and stoner buddy and replace him with a smug know-it-all collie, a deadly serious patriarch figure who never opens his eyes, an effeminate teen and some other lunkheads solving half-baked mysteries. Oh, and an insipid yet insanely catchy theme song that will burrow its way into your brain like a Ceti eel from Star Trek 2.
