Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks

Mel voiced Wiley the Sheep for 36 episodes of Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks. According to Wikipedia, "Each story also features a subplot featuring Wiley, the sheep (Mel Brooks). Being the only sheep in the flock who can talk, he believes he is their "natural leader", and tries to get the other sheep to do all kinds of things (singing, racing, playing sports, acting, etc.), with varying degrees of success."

The show is really cute and kind of entertaining for a kids show. Mel seems to have some improv/writing liberties because his character really bears his mark. Anyway, I've scrounged up some scenes with Wiley the Sheep and you can watch them below. They are not in any particular order.
