Beetle Bailey
AnimationComedy
Beetle Bailey, the Private who'd rather drop and nap than drop and "do 20," is the wise-cracking joker of the most famous Army camp –Camp Swampy, where befuddled General Halftrack still hasn't heard from the Pentagon, grumbling Sgt. Snorkle has never had a date, Beetle hasn't washed his socks, and Cooke still makes those high-bouncing meatballs. Join Beetle Bailey and his army buddies and sound off with laughter.
