        Smarter than the average Hanna-Barbera cartoon!

        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!

        Smarter than the average cartoon!

        I remember first catching this show when I was home alone, sick with the chicken pox. It was great entertainment for to pass the time - a funny and uplifting cartoon about smooth-talking Yogi Bear of Jellystone National Park, where he and his trusty friend Boo Boo tries to charm picnic goers to go after their picnic baskets, instead of feasting on the usual forest berries. Meanwhile, Park Ranger Smith tries to stop them.

        Plenty of adventures and misadventures to keep the show exciting, and lots of humor and jokes to keep you laughing. Yogi Bear proves he is smarter than the average bear, outwitting people left and right. I've always enjoyed the Ranger Smith character as well, as he tries effortlessly to keep order in the park while getting driven nuts by Yogi Bear. He asserts his authority when necessary, but at times could be seen as a friend toward the bears.

        Nothing over-the-top here - just a good old fashion and innocent cartoon but with plenty of adventures that is great for kids and family.

        A Perfect Show

        This short t.v. show was funny, excitement, and plain old great, it's not bad for a long time ago show that has been in the air for 27 years. That is a long time and you know why that long, because it was a great show. Yogi is a bear that wants a lot of food for hibernation, he and his partner in time Boo-Boo will not stop going past the ranger and get the picnic basket. But they always fail in one after another way in a funny way but different ways. And he has a girl name Cindy who loves him but Yogi doesn't love her back, thats so funny.I wished they never stopped making "The Yogi Bear Show", the people back then and right now will miss the show.

        Iconic

        Snagglepuss is a true icon not just among Hanna Barbera characters, but cartoon characters in general. Everything from his immortal catchphrases and unmistakable voice is unforgettable. The animated Snagglepuss shorts are very entertaining and represent in my humblest of opinion Hanna Barbera's best work ( Alongside The Yogi Bear Show). Recommended to kids and adults alike, watch a Snagglepuss short whenever you get the opportunity!

        Pure Fun!

        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?
