Underdog - Season 2 - Eps 5: Weathering the Storm: Part One
Simon is trying out his latest evil invention, the weather making machine. This dangerous device creates artificial storms and other natural disasters which Simon hopes to use for his own plans of world conquest. But it is not without faults; the weather machine's powers are uncontrollable near itself, that is, Simon's Lab. Cad comes up with an idea: why not use the machine from another spot not on the Earth. Intrigued by this idea and the fact that Sweet Polly Purebred and two astronauts are heading for a moon expedition, Simon and Cad head for Cape Carnival and take over the spaceship and capture Polly. The trio head for the moon with Simon's diabolical weather machine.

Underdog, also known as The Underdog Show, is an American Saturday morning animated television series that ran from October 3, 1964, to March 4, 1967, starting on the NBC network until 1966, with the rest of the run on CBS, under the primary sponsorship of General Mills, for a run of 62 episodes. It is one of the early Saturday morning cartoons. The show continued in syndication until 1973. Underdog, Shoeshine Boy's heroic alter ego, appears whenever love interest Sweet Polly Purebred is being victimized by such villains as Simon Bar Sinister or Riff Raff.
