The Snowman Cometh:
Courage, Muriel, and Eustace go on vacation to the North Pole. Courage goes out to get firewood and comes back to the igloo (where they were staying) and finds everybody else is gone. Courage knew it was a snowman because he saw it earlier. He figured out that the snowman was taking a liquid from Eustace and Muriel's body to be able to live in hot weather and not melt. Courage gets captured by the snowman but breaks out and saves both. The snowman falls into icy water while chasing them and freezes into a giant ice cube. Muriel, Courage, and Eustace go home.

The Precious, Wonderful, Adorable, Loveable Duckling:
Courage finds a duck egg, brings it inside, and gives it to Eustace. Eustace thinks he is going to eat it for breakfast, but finds out its still alive. It hatches and thinks Eustace is his mom. The duck becomes "Eustace's slave" and it's jealous of Muriel and Courage, which makes it do nasty tricks on both. Courage eventually puts a stop to this, in which the duck straps Muriel on a rocket headed for the moon. Muriel gets off it by the help of Courage, but the duck can't get off because his arm is trapped under the hood of the rocket. Eustace goes upstairs to help the duck, grabbing onto the rocket. Then, all of a sudden, the rocket takes off, heading towards the moon with Eustace and the duck on it. Add a recap »

  • When Courage comes back to the igloo, he finds Muriel's apron. However, when Muriel is with Snowman, her apron is back on. edit »
  • Cartoon Network mispelled the name of "The Precious, Wonderful, Adorable, Loveable Duckling" on their website. They have the word "Loveable" spelled as "Lovable." Even though the word "love" ends in an "e," you still keep it there when you add the suffix "able." Just one of those weird things in the English language. edit »
  • The Snowman returns in "Snowman's Revenge." edit »
  • The Snowman's voice and Scottish accent is a parody of Sean Connery. edit »
  • Character Debut(s): The Snowman, The Precious, Wonderful, Adorable, Loveable Duckling. edit »
  • Snowman: Blast! You stupid dog, do you realize what you've done?
    Eustace: That's what I tell him all the time. You stupid dog. You stupid dog! He don't do nothing right. edit »
  • Muriel: Oh! Courage, could you go out and find us some more wood? The fire is mighty low.
    Courage: But I don't want to go out there! I'm not a penguin, you know. edit »
  • Snowman: The first frozen snowman. That's not too shabby. edit »
  • Courage: (After he frees himself from a giant ice cube) This happens to me all the time. edit »

  • The Snowman
    The Snowman is clearly a Sean Connery parody. The way he talks and acts, and his debut: "Man. Snowman", just like Connery's in the James Bond movies: "Bond. James Bond." edit »
  • Episode Title: The Snowman Cometh
    "The Snowman Cometh" is a parody of the movie, The Iceman Cometh. edit »
