Dastardly & Muttley in Their Flying Machines, also known as Dastardly & Muttley, is a comedy TV series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions for CBS' Saturday morning children's programming. It ran from 1969 to 1970, airing 17 episodes. It is a spin-off from Wacky Races.
Dick Dastardly and Muttley lead the Vulture Squadron, with other members Klunk and Zilly, flying in World War I-style aeroplanes, trying to capture a messenger pigeon called Yankee Doodle Pigeon from delivering top-secret messages to an opposing army.
There are two other segments: Wing Dings, which features short jokes, and Magnificent Muttley, starring Muttley who plays the hero in his daydreams, only to be cut off and put back to work by Dick.

Legacy
In 2018, DC Comics published Scooby-Doo! Team-Up #44, which concluded the series with the revelation that the Vulture Squadron was really working for a Chinese restaurant that was the rival of a pizza delivery service that Yankee Doodle Pigeon worked for. Yes, really.
Also in that same year, DC Comics reinvisioned the series with Dastardly & Muttley, a comically dark, yet fleshed out take of the characters written by Garth Ennis.
Yankee Doodle Pigeon and Klunk appear in the HBO Max series Jellystone!
