Show Summary

  • Ended
Huckleberry Hound is a blue-haired Southern dog with a fondness for the song, "My Darling, Clementine", and is a jack-of-all-trades cartoon star, appearing as a scientist (trying to neutralize a gigantic, thinking potato), a Scotland Yard detective (chasing Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in Victorian London or investigating reports of a mad scientist's Frankenstein-like weiner monster in early-1900s rural England), a Foreign Legion soldier (foiling a renegade Frenchman-turned-Arab), or a modern policeman (trying to subdue an impish ape named Wee Willie). Episodes of this television series begin and end with a Huckleberry cartoon. Sandwiched between them is a cartoon with two mischievous mice, Pixie and Dixie and a cantankerous cat named Mr. Jinks. Sometimes appearing in their stead in the middle cartoon was a free-spirited Hokey Wolf or the "smarter than the average" Yogi Bear.moreless

    Another Hanna-Barbera masterpiece that I wish were still on the air today. Another show that got bit by the "it's too violent" bug. This was a load up "Beep" and everyone knows it today. It was a fun show and even showed the difference between good and evil. There was nothing in this show that was going to make a normal kid turn violent. Its the same thing with porn. There is nothing in these things that is going to make a normal person flip. People who are unbalanced are just unbalanced. There is nothing about porn or a cartoon that is going to make someone evil.moreless

    Huckleberry Hound was a great series when it first aried (so I've heard; I wasn't born when it first aired, but I've seen reruns), and I'm sure it would be a hit if it would return to TV today.
    I guess the things that made Huck so funny were his Southern accent, his "theme song" ("Oh my darling Clementine") and his unique free-spirit way of living.
    Also, this show is considered a classic because each episode provides a different story-line, with Huck always playing a different character, including a policeman, a fireman, a medieval knight, a TV repair man, an ancient Roman gladiator, and many more.moreless
