"The Huckleberry Hound Show" consisted of one cartoon starring each of the character sets Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear and Boo Boo, and Pixie and Dixie and Mr. Jinks. When Yogi got his own show, HB replaced him with Hokey Wolf and Ding-A-Ling.
The Yogi Bear segment of the show became extremely popular, and as a result, it spawned its own series in 1961. A segment featuring Hokey Wolf and Ding-A-Ling was added, replacing Yogi during the 1960-61 season. The show contributed to making Hanna-Barbera a household name, and is often credited with legitimizing the concept of animation produced specifically for television. In 1960, it became the first animated program to be honored with an Emmy Award.
