Can't admit to seeing all of this yet but caught several scenes on Film4 recently, while dashing in and out and having lunch. Brief as the glimpses were, I was captivated by the performances of the cast, especially Vincent Price (looking almost cherubic - light years from the characters that were to become his 'trade-mark') and Harry Morgan. Didn't actually 'know' any of the rest of the cast but the whole production seemed well crafted and not at all preachy or over the top. Wholly agree with other reviewers, not seen enough and just as deserving as many another war film.
Definitely to be added to my "Must see" list!

In my opinion this series of cartoons (Pinky & The Brain) must rank as one of the most entertaining, mature, satirical and down right funny since the Tom & Jerry's of the immediate post war era! In particular, The Pink Candidate shows many of the facets that make this outstanding series.
It is easy to see why only 37 episodes were made - it is impossible to continually produce such a high quality product. The only possible exception to this might be The Simpsons but even in one or two of their episodes, you get the feeling some of the writing team fell asleep or left the room!
History will look back on Pinky & The Brain as we do now to Chaplin, Keaton, Lloyd and Laurel & Hardy and wonder at the talent involved in making us laugh and (more often than not) think! Can't be bad.
