From Mooch Goes To Hollywood (1971), the tale of a canine starlet who tries to make it big.
Backus co-wrote, co-produced and co-starred in this cameo swollen oddity. Here we see him in a fake recording session for a fake Magoo knockoff, a freakish fantasy beach slo-mo run in full get-up (including not at all disturbing tights) towards Mooch (played by Benji #1), followed up by a little ode to Mooch from Sonny Curtis, all of it lovingly narrated by Zsa Zsa Gabor.
Did I just drop acid?

This is not the only time that Jimmy Backus dressed up as a live action version of his cartoon counterpart"Mr.Quincy Magoo". He dressed up as "Magoo"on some installments of The Heater/Quigley/NBC TV Kids game show"The Storybook Squares"in the late 1960's.

Scene is rather corny, but it is a nice to see people being kind to animals..

Whoever said Hollywood is glamorous apparently never watched the indignities suffered by Jim Backus in this clip.

Oh the humanity of it all.
Still, better arm candy than anything carries around... and promptly infects with sixteen different contagions.
