Ludwig Von Drake

Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color was the iteration of the Walt Disney anthology series that ran on NBC from 1961 to 1969. It was so named because the show had moved to NBC, which was the first television network broadcasting its programs in color, to take advantage of that technology.


This show featured the first appearance of Professor Ludwig Von Drake, an uncle to Donald Duck. He hosted the first episode and then went on to host 18 more episodes.


Von Drake is depicted as a lecturer, scientist, psychiatrist, and self-proclaimed genius who frequently displays his vast array of "expert" knowledge on a variety of subjects.
