In these very early ones, Gumby is EXTREMELY chunky, he is bluish green, and does NOT YET have Pokey. His voice is also MOST childlike here, improving later.

45 S1E2: Little Lost Pony/ Lost and Found / Mirrorland 30 min

LITTLE LOST PONY: Gumby's going out to play, and runs into a horse who is caught in a train track. This just in: It's Pokey, making his debut, but so do the sinister (and ridiculously ""G"" and ""J"" letter-attired) Blockheads, who'd go on to make more appearances as series villians themselves peering behind a wall. They're goofball villians with--you guessed it folks--blocks for heads. Gumby manages to extricate the Poke-ster from the tracks and they introduce themsevles to each other only to get laughed at good-naturely, natch, by the other. The Blockheads get stopped by a tree falling down (writing this from memory.) LOST AND FOUND/MIRRORLAND Gumby is going through a series of mirrors in these two similiar epsiodes, the first with an elaborate set of attempts to get to the mirrorplot. Both involve Gumby getting a nickel, the first Gumby in a car with his mirror twin and the other with the mirrors falling down. Either way, Gumby has his coin back that we was looking for, and he is

46 S1E3: Gopher Trouble/ The BlockHeads / The Fantastic Farmer 30 min

GOPHER TROUBLE Where are all the vegetables on Farmer Glenn's place going? Turns out Farmer's got gopher problems, so Gumby wanders around the cornfield, and a tall ear of corn, enlarged by said gopher's enlarging chemistry, topples Gumby into the gopher's burrow. There the gopher explains he needs food. Offering to help, Gumby (in an early case of him being more mature despite still sounding very childike and vocally speaking VERY high girlish, thanks to Clokey employee Ruth Eggleston doing the voice) makes some roots (don't ask how) out of a food mixing-device looking contraption that Gumby builds. He makes one of his new hybrid roots, and tries it on Pokey. The horse turns into a Technicolor pony!!! (Orange spots closing in, stripes, polka dots, splotches, and even triangles). The cuckoo keeps popping and in out, warning Gumby that it's getting late! Gumby tries again, putting another root and turning out a better food in the processor,and Pokey shows postive reults. ""Hooray!!"" s

The Groobee: The zoo's most ferocious lion has suddenly got sick and died. Five years later, Gumby meets Pokey at an exotic pet store, where Pokey is investigating Groobees. When W. C. Fields comes out to give them a demonstration, Pokey warns Gumby to increase his sales resistance, but Gumby won't let the man sell him anything. Gumby buys a Groobee, impressed with its ability to build boxes around animals. The next logical step is to go to Africa and get some new zoo animals. Gumby is attacked by a gorilla, a rhinoceros, and a lion all at once, but fortunately, the Groobee boxes them all up, so no harm done. Later, he gives a speech to the happy zoo-goers about his safari and gives them a free demonstration by accidentally losing control of the Groobee, which boxes everyone in the audience up before the bee can be restrained. The Witty Witch: A witch captures Gumby and Pokey by helicopter (as one would expect) and takes them back to her castle. No matter what they do to try and flee, they witch and her hired help are one step ahead of them. They're sent to the dungeon, where Gumby promises to come up with a plan and never does. They're taken to a theater with hundreds of other prisoners. Gumby, convinced that the witch plans to put on a spook show to scare them to death, closes his eyes and misses the witch's stupid comedy bit, which involves a piano that throws a pie in her face. Turns out the witch just wanted a captive audience for her one-joke show, and everyone goes home. Pokey refuses to tell Gumby what he missed by keeping his eyes closed. Hot Rod Granny: What are all those young kids into these days? Really fast cars, and Gumby's no exception. He and Pokey tear up the road, little knowing that they're on a collision course with wackiness. An old lady who's lost her glasses mistakes Gumby's hot rod for her little car and Pokey for her dog, Hexibar. As Pokey doesn't tell her about her mistake, she takes Gumby's car and drives around half-blind, putting herself in several hilarious and nearly lethal situations, like inadvertently entering a drag race. She's eventually stopped by the police. After serving her term, she decides that she likes the taste of speed, and buys Gumby's car, giving Gumby the funds he needs to buy another car.

GRUB GRABBER GUMBY: Hungry Gumby skates in, allowed by his (offscreen) mother to have ONE cookie but eats ALL of them! He then goes to see Pokey-0 - but winds up eating the Pokemeister's peanut butter sandwich! Not that he leaves next-door Mrs.Wheedle's pie alone, either. He then dreams, a la Stanley Kubrick's A CLOCKWORK ORANGE which wouldn't even appear until 1971, that Pokey is a bipedal equine (you can call him ""Mr. Stuff"", thank you very much) who forces feeds the Gumster-strapping him to factory conveyor belt, slapping pies in his pace, filling him up with Coca-Cola, then HAMBURGERs...and ""Then comes DESSERT' - when Gumby awakens (whew!) from his nightmare, and Pokey tells him to come in for dinner. BUT...Gumby's not hungry right now!! :) (the below star a separate group of characters) TREASURE FOR HENRY Henry the bear and buddy Rodgy parrot go into a book a la G&P onto a pirate ship, to fight pirates for gold for money and stuff. The pirates put up a purty good battle - cann

GABBY AUNTIE Whie (with Gumby) visiting Gumby's lookailike aunt Gumbiddty Pokey's narcoleptic/somabulistic side takes over, and he winds up sleep-driving Gumby's big yellow car. So now, Gumby's got to drive with Auntie Gumbitty then borrow someone's speedboat to catch Pokey. OF CLAY AND CRITTERS A VERY odd episode with Gumby, Pokey and Nopey in the desert being tuned by a Cousin Itt type (while inspecting a box that fell off a Class 6-truck) onto the ground into umbrellas, and wind up in a REAL odd setting...in a (get this) blank landscape, and wind up meeting some bizzare new friends: a artist and his GIANT THUMB (after all, what's a painter without one,right), then a alien caterpillar, then gnomes coming out of a blossing flower (who turn into a ""clay carpet""!)
