An uncredited Hoyt Curtain composed the musical arrangements.
He was the musical director/ composer/ arranger for H-B from its beginnings in 1957
until 1987( he did step away for a time from 1965- 1972).
He co-wrote what became The Flintstones theme "Meet The Flintstones" along w/ Joseph Hanna and William Barbera.
He arranged and composed the underscore music used in the series as well.
The theme song for Magilla Gorilla was performed ( uncredited) by The Randy Van Horne Singers who also sang The Flintstones and The Jetsons themes as well as all of H-B's shows of that era.
This is amazing to me.
I would love to see (and hear) retro singing groups like the Randy Van Horne Singers doing tv theme songs & advertising today - just for the fun of it😄
The closing with the Screen Gems tag at the end brings tears to my eyes. Nostalgia at its finest.
Yes indeed. Note the copyright date at the very end, i.e. 1964, hence the Screen Gems "Dancing Sticks" logo with the voiceover "A Screen Gems Production". In September 1965 Screen Gems started using the "S From Hell" logo.
@@richardsantalone9380 Canada was the last country/providence to have the dancing sticks logo for an additional year. The debut of the "S From Hell" logo for Canadian audiences was September, 1966.
@@richardsantalone9380 Same with "The Flintstones" and "The Jetsons" when they moved to syndication.
@@robertorick6383 dude how did you learn this stuff?! this is amazing!
@@WindowsGG Living close to the Canadian border in Michigan probably had something to do with it. I remember seeing Channel 9 in Windsor, Ontario, which reaches Detroit viewers very easily and can be telecasted as far off as Flint, Michigan. In the 1960's Channel 9 was CKLW and was part of the radio chain, as well as RKO Theatres and General Tire, Inc. By 1974, that all ended, and Channel 9 became CBET, a CBC connected station , and became more Canadian oriented with their programming. In Detroit, WXYZ Channel 7, an ABC affiliated station showed a lot of Screen Gems TV shows during the 60's (Bewitched, The Flying Nun, Gidget, The Jetsons, Top Cat, Donna Reed, The Farmer's Daughter, The Naked City, Jonny Quest, The Flintstones, etc.) When Jonny Quest, Top Cat, The Jetsons, & The Flintstones were aired on ABC, they were shown in prime time telecasts, then they were moved to Saturday mornings in reruns. Other competing stations such as NBC and CBS showed these H-B/Screen Gems TV shows on Saturday mornings as well when they were cancelled by ABC affiliates.
2:07 When Magilla ( voice of Allan Melvin) says "Be sure to see the Peter Potamus Show" that line was dubbed.
The original line was something along.the lines of " Join us next week" or " Tune in next week"
When the show moved to ABC in January of 1966 ( New Year's Day to be specific) The Ideal Toy Company retained a partial sponsorship.
After sustaining the show in full for first run syndication.
ABC sold commercial time to other companies ie Nabisco and Del Monte ( for its fruit drinks line).
By January 1966, "Magilla Gorilla" was using the Screen Gems "S From Hell" logo with Eric Siday's jingle.
The uncredited voice of the little girl was Jean Van Der Pyl (Wilma Flintstone.) "Nelson Brock," who wrote the theme song, was an alias for Nelson Brock Winkless, Jr., a Chicago advertising man with the Leo Burnett Agency, who wrote commercial jingles including "Snap, Crackle, Pop, Rice Krispies" for Kellogg's.
Ogee was her nam3 pronounced oh gee cutest little girl ever❤❤❤
@@ronsadventures2007 so cute when she says "how much is that Gorillia in the Window."
Adorable
And Pebbles Flintstone.
Winkles probably used a pseudonym because he was contractually obligated to Leo Burnett and Kellogg's.
Screen Gems ( television subsidiary of Columbia Pictures ) owned about 15 % of H-B at that time .
They distributed all of the H-B programs of that era.
The Flinstones, The Jetsons, Jonny Quest, Huckleberry Hound, Wally Gator, this program and others.
3:30 The announcer who says "A Screen Gems Production" was Colin Male.
He did that for most every Screen Gems series during the 1963-64 and 1964 -65 seasons when the "Dancing Sticks " logo was in use.
He was also the announcer for The Andy Griffith Show seasons 1-5 ( 1960 - 65).
And also The Dick van Dyke Show for its entire run (1961 - 66).
The only dancing sticks tag that Colin Male didn't do was the "Route 66" variation with special credit mentioning to Herbert B. Leonard as executive producer. That announcer was Hal Gibney, and it was an edited leftover from his 1960 announcement from the "torch lady" years (1960-1963.) Herbert B. Leonard was the only Screen Gems executive producer and creator to have his name announced during the logos. Leonard created "Route 66" and "The Naked City".
Veteran character actor Allan Melvin voiced Magilla.
He appeared in numerous shows of that era including Perry Mason, Andy Griffith Show, Dick van Dyke Show and many others
He gained his most recognition from his portrayal of Sam The Butcher on The Brady Bunch
Snezzly Seal and Droop - A -Long Coyote were voiced by the legendary Mel Blanc who also voiced Barney Rubble and various other H-B characters.
Howard Morris known for playing Ernest T Bass on The Andy Griffith Show was the initial voice of Mr Peebles.
And voiced other H-B characters as well.
You left out his supporting role on the Phil Silvers Show (Sgt. Bilko) and Barney Hefner on All in the Family/Archie Bunker Place.
I do remember seeing the Screen Gems dancing sticks logo on reruns on Boomerang during the 1990's. Most of the time, however, they usually drop the closing titles.
It was also shown on "The Flintstones" (first couple seasons) and "The Jetsons".
@@Rlotpir1972 I definitely remember seeing them on "The Flintstones" episodes well into the late 70's-early 80's. As for "The Jetsons", the dancing sticks logo was probably shown on Saturday Morning reruns on CBS and NBC (1964-1979.) However, when they were on repeats on Channel 20 from Detroit, Michigan, the end tags were usually removed (a bad habit that local stations did to make room for more commercials.) I do remember seeing the "S From Hell" logo at the end of "The Jetsons" reruns in the early 70's on Channel 2 from Detroit. Canadian airings most definitely had the dancing sticks logo on both shows for a year after the US switched to the "S From Hell" logo until September 1, 1966.
@@robertorick6383I knew a friend who had an episode of The Flintstones on 16mm with the "Dancing Sticks" at the end. First time I saw that was about 28 years ago.
@@ChristopherSobieniak Your friend must have purchased the 16 mm film off of E-Bay. E-Bay also offers old rare 16mm and silent 8mm films that Screen Gems put out in the 1960's and 1970's and were sold at department stores such as Kresge's and Sears. E-Bay even had an old Screen Gems film of "The Flintstones" complete with an original yellow colored film cannister with the "S From Hell" logo printed on it (I don't know which episode it was or what season it was from, though.)
@@robertorick6383 I wouldn't know, he died before eBay took off as he did his buying/trades through The Big Reel, a publication. I used to had ads in there too.
Holy Moley! I Don't remember this stuff! Then again, I was a very young kid at the time. Thank you for sharing this!
A color version of the original Ideal toy Openings and Closings is extremely rare since the syndication 16mm prints were in black and white, even though color nationwide was coming in a year. The color broadcasts were on ABC with the Ideal references removed. This adds to the challenge. Also piecing this together presents some problems in synchronization of the sound in the ending. I look forward to your continued work on this.
I liked how they snuck the plug in for the sponsor ideal toys
After a week of watching Peter Potamus on MeTV Toons, I finally realized yesterday that's why the word ideal was used in the title song. It felt like an odd word choice until I remembered this was when the shows were sponsored.
God that sent me back to my childhood 60 years ago!! Thank you for posting and sharing!!!
The Curtain call bumper it was always fun to watch!
All of H-B's series' were recorded in color.
Despite the scarcity of color tv's at the time.
The Jetsons was the first program to debut in color on ABC ( September 1962).
The Flintstones that debuted in b/w 2 yrs earlier ( September 1960) was finally shown in color for the first time.
"Rise & Shine" was The Flintstones theme for the 1960-1961 and 1961-1962 seasons. "Meet The Flintstones" became the official theme on episode 3 of the 1962-1963 season.
Happy late anniversary to Magilla gorilla
The Screen Gems Dancing Sticks logo sounds better with the end title music of The Flintstones, Jonny Quest, Peter Potamus and Magilla Gorilla than it does with SG’s own shows of that time. And better than the S From Hell used in Season 6 of the Flintstones.
One Screen Gems show with the dancing sticks logo was an exception: 1963-64 episodes of the fourth and final season of "Route 66". Instead of Colin Male doing the announcement, Screen Gems used an edited version of Hal Gibney's 1960 announcement (when they were still using the "torch lady" logo) with special credit to Herbert B. Leonard, executive producer. "The Naked City" had a similar announcement. Herbert B. Leonard was the only SG producer to have his own name mentioned on the ending credits and logos.
Peter Potamus also originally had a curtain call that came before the end credits
thank you for posting this i have a black and white film print on my smartphone with breezly and sneezly put in place of riccochet rabbit and droop a long been looking for this for a long time.
Release history of The Magilla Gorilla Show:
1964-1965 syndicated
1/1/66-12/31/67 ABC
After spending the prior season and a half on Saturday morning at 11:30 Eastern ( later moved to 12:30 in January of 1967).
ABC moved the series to Sunday late afternoon ( 4:30 Eastern) on September 10 1967.
And concluded as mentioned.
Cool!
😅😅😅well information good show 😅😅
Love it! ❤ 😂
It’s surreal to see cartoon characters advertising toys like this. You don’t see that type of advertising anymore.
Before my time
Yeah, this practice was known as host-selling, and the FCC barred this practice about 1968 IIRC. They also mandated the use of program-commercial separators. The way they made these programs back then, the sponsor owned the whole half-hour on tv, and children's cognitive development was considered insufficient to distinguish the programs from the commercials.
Good
Never got to see it this way in the 80's.
1:32 1:54
Full version was on WPIX-11 during the late 1970's-early 1980's.
@@Rlotpir1972 Nice! First saw just the Magilla cartoons on USA Network mixed with Yogi and Huck cartoons in the late 80's.
Boomerang as well as Cartoon Network and TNT did air this show in the 1990's and early 2000's. However, sometimes they would air the opening and closing portions, and many times they would drop them completely. This may be due in the 2000's to Warner Brothers buying the rights to Hanna/Barbera's cartoons from Time-Warner and Ted Turner before Ted Turner retired in the mid-2000's. The Screen Gems end tag I last saw in 1995 on Boomerang reruns when they occasionally showed the closing credits.
@@robertorick6383 I remember that. They can't quite get it all together in later years.
Quisiera escuchar la versión en español de ésta canción.. si alguien la tiene compártala sería un gran para los latinos que vimos ésta serie en nuestra infancia..
2:59
I liked the old Screen Gems logo with the colored dots and lines. A year later the logo would change and it wasn't as good.
Screen Gems used the dancing sticks logo for two years in the US, three in Canada. For the US audience, it was September1963-September 1965, for the Canadians it was September 1963-September 1966.
Magilla was voiced by alan melvin . Sam the butcher from the brady bunch
And Barney Heffner on "All In The Family", Rob Petrie's army buddy Sol/Sam Pomeroy on "The Dick Van Dyke Show" and before that Corporal Henshaw on "Sergeant Bilko."
