"Leena, Queen of the Jungle" was Ernie Kovacs' jab at the 1950's TV show "Sheena, Queen of the Jungle" Quoting from Wikipedia, "She possessed the ability to communicate with the wild animals after having grown up with them since being orphaned in the jungle. She was fiercely proficient in fighting with knives, spears, and bows, and improvised with makeshift weapons. She is deeply in love with Calum McConnell. Her primary ability was to surprise her opponents, either human or animal".
