"Aesop and Son" was an animated segment on "The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle" (1959-1964), which tells fable tales. The typical structure consists of Aesop attempting to teach a lesson to his son using a fable. After hearing the story, the son subverts the fable's moral with a pun. This structure was also suggested by the feature's opening titles, which showed Aesop painstakingly carving his name in marble using a mallet and chisel and then his son, with a jackhammer and raising a cloud of dust, appending "And Son". Aesop was voiced by actor Charlie Ruggles and the son, was voiced by Daws Butler.
