The New Hanna-Barbera Cartoon Show

I remember that show when it debuted in syndication back in 1962 called The New Hanna-Barbera Cartoon Show when they have Wally Gator, Touche Turtle and Lippy the Lion all on one show because is coming back to DVD as part of The Hanna-Barbera Golden Collection and does anyone remember The New Hanna-Barbera Cartoon Show in 1962 because I want to get it on DVD!

Wally Gator gets my vote. I feel it had a bit more variety than the other shows esp. Lippy The Lion and Hardy Har-Har :)

But all of them bring back some good memories of the good ol' cartoon network.

I voted for Wally Gator. I haven't seen the other cartoon segments of the show. Are they just about as good as Wally Gator or even Yogi Bear?

When I first saw the TT/LL/WG cartoons in 1962, they were not packaged or promoted as The New H-B Cartoon Show. They did all appear together in the same half hour time slot and did not have an all encompassing opener or closer, as the previous H-B shows, other than the opener/closer for each cartoon. In the June 1964 TV guide that featured Fred Flintstone on the cover, in the article about Bill and Joe (Smarter Than The Average Cartoonists), it was stated that H-B "by this fall will have 13 cartoon shows going at full blast". If you counted all of the H-B shows produced up to that point (Jonny Quest and Peter Potamus both premiering in Sept. 1964) and counted TT/LL/WG as one show each, you would come up with the 13. According to one printed sourse, The Hanna-Barbera New Cartoon Series was sold to local stations without advertising and this gave the local stations the flexibility to run the new cartoons as they pleased, as seperate entities, as 30 minute bundles, or as fillers.

I've grown a huge distaste for Wally Gator (thanks to his cartoons being overplayed almost every half hour on Boomerang), so my pick is Touche Turtle. He's a cute little Anti-hero. Always helping people from trouble while leading himself into more trouble.:D and Dum-Dum is cute as hell.:anime:

Hmmmm...dunno. It was nice hearing Mel Blanc in "Lippy the Lion", but I think "Touche Turtle" has better writing than the others, so it gets my vote.

Man! "Touche" needs serious restoring. The copy on Boomerang is so worn out, one would assume they're running a bootleg copy.
