Mark, Is that the way it went when the special was rerun on The Disney Channel and later Cartoon Network/Boomerang? I know the original 1972 broadcast print unusually had the 1968 jingle playing over the H-B Box logo, but the episodic version does not (since it has the Yogi's Gang title theme...

I hope that the bonus print of Yogi's Ark Lark within Yogi and the Invasion of the Space Bears will be the original 1972 ABC broadcast print rather than the split two-part episodic version that has surfaced on the older Yogi's Gang DVD release. ~Ben

I am still hoping WAC will release the following to Blu-Ray: Series previously released on DVD which should be re-remastered for Blu-Ray: Hong Kong Phooey (1974) Devlin (1974) Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch (1974) Clue Club (1976) The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour/Show (1976) The Super Globetrotters...

Yes, and also the following... * The New Fred and Barney Show (1979) * The (New) Flintstone Comedy Show (1980-81) (only sticking point here is the Shmoo, an Al Capp original) ~Ben

Yes, and that would please the two men who both died two years ago. That is, Joe Ruby and Ken Spears themselves. ~Ben

I do hope that WB Discovery will not have to unload the Hanna-Barbera and Looney Tunes franchises as part of their recent cutbacks. At least, a recent post on Cartoon Brew suggests that WBD intends to focus on these two brands and make them stronger and more profitable. ~Ben

Yes, all of those, plus... Wacky Races Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines The Perils of Penelope Pitstop The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show The Funky Phantom The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan The Roman Holidays Sealab 2020 Inch High, Private Eye Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kids...

Volume 1 (episodes 1 to 7 of season 1) was, in 2008. ~Ben

Randy, More of those WB doesn't own... The Thing (1979) (also in rights dispute between Disney/Warner) Casper and the Angels (1979) (rights dispute between Universal/Warner) Richie Rich (1980-83) (rights dispute between Universal/Warner) The Little Rascals (1982-83) (rights dispute between...

About Yogi's Space Race... there were two formats. The first eight weeks (from September 9 to October 28, 1978) presented it as a 90-minute series, with the segments in this order: a. Yogi's Space Race (part 1) b. The Galloping Ghost c. Galaxy Goof-Ups (acts 1 and 2) d. The Buford Files e...

That, plus: Fangface (and Fangpuss) (1978-80) Mighty Man and Yukk (1979-80) Rickety Rocket (1979-80) The Plastic Man/Baby Plas Super Comedy Show (1980) Heathcliff and Marmaduke (1981) Rubik the Amazing Cube (1983) Mister T (seasons 2-3, 1984-85) Turbo Teen (1984) Hanna-Barbera: These Are the...

Yes, especially in the case of Jana of the Jungle. ~Ben

If WAC were to do The Godzilla Power Hour/Super 90 on DVD, it should be known that for the eight weeks it was called the Power Hour, both segments alternated: 1. Godzilla, Act 1 2. Jana of the Jungle, Act 1 3. Godzilla, Act 2 4. Jana of the Jungle, Act 2 But after becoming the Super 90, with...

Foreign Boomerang reruns. ~Ben

The same can be said for quite a few other shows as well... The Flintstone Comedy Hour (CBS, 1972-73) initially consisted of the following segments: 1. The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show (shorts) 2. Fred and Barney (two segments per week) 3. The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show (reruns of the 1971-72...

Yes, it is, but still sped-up. This is why I hope they will restore it again for Blu-Ray, speed correcting it in the process. It should also include the rest of the 1980 follow-up series, The Plastic Man/Baby Plas Super Comedy Show. ~Ben

Does anyone really know what the correct running times for the 16 half-hour episodes of The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show were, when originally on CBS? The opening credit sequence in the above link lasts 52 seconds, followed by the closing sequence that is 30 seconds. The 1983 H-B logo adds...

Among them, I would like to see Blu-Ray updates of the following DVD sets that had been released before: Top Cat (1961-62) The Atom Ant Show (1965) The Secret Squirrel Show (1965) Frankenstein, Jr. and The Impossibles (1966) Birdman and The Galaxy Trio (1967) Moby Dick and Mightor (1967) Wacky...

And if so in the case of the former, there should also be an opening teaser, and interstitial bumpers between commercial breaks, as had been represented during the show's original 1974 run on ABC's Funshine Saturday lineup. As to the latter, I do hope these will turn up... ~Ben

The reason I still hold out for CB Bears and Skatebirds on DVD or HBO Max, and also the re-release of Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels on Blu-Ray or HBO Max, is because those three shows, in the 1977-78 season, had this early version of the small zoom "H-B Rainbow" logo. Original 1977...

Yes, indeed Randy... Among the already released DVD sets they should revisit for Blu-Ray: Top Cat (1961-62) (previously released by WHV) Wacky Races (1968) (previously released by WHV) The Perils of Penelope Pitstop (1969) (previously released by WHV) The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show (1971-72)...

For the 1965-66 season, Breezly & Sneezly (originally part of The Peter Potamus Show) became part of the Magilla Gorilla fold. ~Ben

Mark, Yes, I would have preferred all 34 11-minute segments to be grouped together like they were on CBS. In local syndication, the 34 segments would also have aired in production order, so that would mean whatever "next week" previews each half-hour originally had would be out of sequence...

Maybe if we buy what's out there, they might start doing more older product. Again, please try to buy what's out there! ~Ben

If they do re-release Yogi's Gang on Blu-Ray, then, let's hope Yogi's Ark Lark will be restored to its original one-hour presentation (the way it was when it was on ABC as part of its Saturday Superstar Movie rotation), and to be appended before the first episode of Yogi's Gang. Disc 1: Yogi's...

I think someone messed up there, since I refuse to believe that. ~Ben

As far as I know, no. I am just worried about it... ~Ben

I hope Warner Archive will not put any of the previously-released Hanna-Barbera titles on moratorium. I hope I can still find the following titles elsewhere, if not Amazon: * Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har-Har * The Atom Ant Show * The Secret Squirrel Show * Peter Potamus These are the four I am...

As I said before about Yogi's Space Race, to get it on DVD correctly as the whole 90-minute kit and kaboodle, with Galaxy Goof-Ups in tow, the order of episodes for shows 1-8 and 9-13 are different: Episodes 1-8, which were 90 minutes long, were in this order: a. Yogi's Space Race part 1...

So too was Darrell McNeil, who died in 2018. He too had a lot to say about all the H-B cartoons he'd worked on, including most of what's on my list. ~Ben
