Her embodiment of the American notion of a boy and his dog has fueled unparalleled success in all forms of pop culture. No other dog, real or imagined, has the emotional bond that Lassie has forged with multiple generations. "The Best of the Lassie Show" episodes includes: "The Rocking Chair (1958)" - Lassie's fondness for the old family rocking chair, which Timmy donates to the school auction, causes quite a few complications. Lassie becomes so fond of the chair which she found and in which she was allowed to sit that Paul and Ruth try to bid for it at the school auction, but neighbor Joe Bascom tops their offer and winds up with the chair. Then the chair mysteriously disappears, and Timmy, who had tried to buy it back from Bascom, is accused of stealing it. How Lassie clears up the mysterious disappearance provides the climax. "Peace Patrol (1958)" - Timmy and Lassie join the Lone Ranger's Peace Patrol to sell U.S. Savings Bonds. Money collected by their school disappears and a poor student is accused of stealing.
