Yogibär

I am a pure Hanna-Barbera fan and a pure fan in animation also! This was another great and enjoyable series! Yogi Bear was first a segment on The Huckleberry Hound Show and then Yogi got promoted to his own show and Hokey Wolf took Yogi's place on The Huckleberry Hound Show. Yogi Bear's guest stars on his show were Snagglepuss and Yakky Doodle Duck. I remember that before Snagglepuss got his own show he first guest starred on some other Hanna-Barbera cartoons like Quick Draw McGraw and Snooper and Blabber. He guest starred he was orange and then when he got his own cartoon he was pink with cuffs and collar tie which made him look like a brother to the Pink Panther almost. Yakky Doodle is a duck who has a dog friend named Chopper who would always stick up for him. I liked some of the Yakky Doodle cartoons when they have Fibber Fox in them. I remember in every Yogi Bear cartoon, Yogi Bear would always tell his sidekick, Boo-Boo that they are getting a picnic basket and Ranger Smith always catches Yogi red-handed which I thought was funny. This cartoon is smarter than the average, hey hey hey!

The one that started it all. A legendary animated series that we all know and love. I wish it was still on the air because I would still be watching. But seriously, how was this show on so long? Anyway, it's not the thing to see if you're in the mood for something uplifting, or something with tons of thrills. But it is a sort of gem in its own right. Even if you are not a cartoon fan, you will likely be entertained by all this 1960s series has to offer. I suggest you enjoy the first seven or so episodes for what they are and let your mind play around with the opportunities there can be to make something interesting. Overall I can give it seven out of ten for its effort and writing.

I have been a fan of ALL Hanna-Barbera cartoons for a long long time now. They are all pure fun, very very funny and just totally wacky. What's not to like about them?

Yogi Bear featured, well, Yogi Bear. He was joined by cute sidekick Boo-Boo (a nickname I gave to my baby brother many many years ago). Together, they caused havoc at Jellystone National Park. Much like Hanna-Barbera's other creation Top Cat caused havoc for Officer Dibble, Yogi and Boo-Boo caused havoc for Ranger John Smith.

There was a lot of fun in all the episodes as Yogi and Boo-Boo did what normal bears do-nick food. Of course, in real life, a bear will not only nick food but nick your head as well. Thankfully, Yogi and Boo-Boo were a little more mild-mannered.

All in all, a fantastically funny show. One of my favourite scenes which I still remember now was where Yogi shot an arrow through the window of a cafe and the arrow-in mid-flight-caught a cake, a turkey and something else. The arrow came out another window and hit a tree where Yogi was waiting to collect his food.

See why I liked it?

The Yogi Bear Show is not my absolute favourite of the Hanna-Barbera shows; I think Scooby Doo Where are You? and The Flintstones are better, but this is still a very funny and smart show. The animation is crisp, colourful and smooth, and the music is really infectious with a theme tune that sticks firmly in your head for ages afterwards. The story lines are interesting and exciting, the writing like the show is funny and smart and the gags are inspired. I love the characters, lovable Yogi, Snagglepuss, Boo Boo, Yakky Doodle, Chopper, Cindy Bear and Fibber Fox, they are all great and likable. They are all well voiced by a truly terrific voice cast, Daws Butler, Don Messick, June Foray and Mel Blanc all to name a few. Overall, hey, hey, hey, this is a very entertaining show. Look out for it! 9/10 Bethany Cox

Hanna-Barbera Productions perhaps first big hit, this remains good fun to this day.

I do much, much prefer the Yogi Bear cartoons than the other characters that feature within it though.
