Huckleberry Hound is the Porky Pig of Hanna-Barbera. Both were the first breakout stars of Hanna-Barbera and Warner Bros. respectively. Then their supporting characters, Daffy and Yogi, became more popular than Porky and Huck. And that's when both were relegated to the sidekick or supporting role. Great work on this series Dave! These are always so informative and thank you for the work you put into these.
And then, later on, both Bugs and Scooby managed to overshadow even Daffy and Yogi, thus connecting Huck's sidekick days in Yogi cartoons even further to the Looney Tunes of old. Of course, now that WB actually owns Hanna-Barbera outright, it's even more hilarious to find this out.
Just as a clarifying note, but the Huckleberry Hound in Exit Stage Left is actually Huckleberry Hound Sr, the father of the Huck that we know and love (Huckleberry Hound Jr. presumably being the one that helped John Stewart in the other comic)
Live, from McDuck Manor, home to the most celebrated duck in Duckburg! And also Scrooge McDuck. It's Dewey Dew Night! Tonight Thrills! A visit from Monsieur Saucy! And as always the Dew Crew House Band
I really hope we see more of him in the future. Or now. It's only a matter of time before someone makes a Hanna-Barbera movie where Huck wants revenge on Yogi for upstaging him.
I am 59 (I just turned 59 today) and I love classic Hanna-Barbera cartoons that I grew up watching such as "Huckleberry Hound"; "Scooby-Doo"; "Yogi Bear" & "Quick Draw McGraw".
The "Sound Hound" short is the sole Huckleberry Hound short that I've seen when I was younger. Recently, I've been watching out of context Droopy cartoons that occasionally featured the Country Wolf, and I really wanna watch Jellystone!
Though Huck has been greatly overlooked by the cartoon world, I'm glad he was made Mayor in Jellystone. Dude not only deserves a break but was given a more prominent role than Yogi!
32:18, This was like a Revival to other Hanna-Barbera shows such as Snagglepuss, Yogi Bear, Captain Caveman, Jabberjaw, The Banana Splits, Wally Gator, Touche Turtle, and many more.
Yes, Huck seems to be one of those groundbreaking characters in animation that's also weirdly underrated. I never really liked that Sound Hound cartoon. I felt it generic enough that any HB character could have fit in there, and he was really REALLY acting out of character. What I do like is that in Jellystone they give him the highest ranking status being the mayor and all, almost a nod to how he was the first major TV HB cartoon star.
That's because Sound Hound was a short that aired on Cartoon Network and Boomerang during commercial breaks. Tbh, the short was alright, though it wasnt as great as their Groovies and Nacho Bear shorts. I love the abstract artstyle in it, though.
@@kootunesscrewy The short does have that feeling of first officially commissioned piece from an animation student to put on their demo reel. I appreciate it in that sense and hate to harp on someone's work when they're getting started. Though there were much better shorts that utilized HB characters, especially "Thanks a Latte," a Droopy short that actually GOT what Droopy was about, unlike most of his television appearances up until that point. I just never liked the substance and writing of Sound Hound. He spends the entire short angrily stomping about and harassing everyone because the noise drives him nuts. Far from the slow to anger, easy going Huck we all know and love.
@@mightyfilm Tbh, I wasn't really into the Shorties in my opinion. I love the animation in them, but they weren't really hilarious or enjoyable as the Groovies songs, Wedgies, Cartoons That Never Made It or those CN City shorts. They are good for their own right though.
I've been waiting for this edition of Cartoon Evolution to come out. I remember as a kid watching Huckleberry Hound and thought he was annoying whenever he sang "Oh My Darling, Clementine". Now I have a soft spot for this character.
@@Ben10chickenhero I remember having that song stuck in my head (along with the Popeye theme) at school and I would have a hard time concentrating on my class work. Had to stop watching those cartoons just to get those songs out of my head and focus again.
31:41 - Yo, those DC Hanna Barbera comics were crazy! It's funny, I was such a huge fan of the southern wolf as a kid, no wonder I grew to like Huck so quickly.
Another great video essay Dave, always learn a lot. My request for a future video would be Dastardly and Muttley, but I know there isn't too much with those characters to go through, but would be interesting to learn about them. Keep up the great work 👍
I feel like I've taken advantage of ol' Huck! Everything about him was lifted from the Tex Avery Country Wolf that I've never realized til this coverage. I've even found myself whistling Ol' My Darling! Thanks Dave for uncovering something I never knew and now greatly appreciate!
Wow. Nice job. The early history clips and info are the best. I like the Dean Martin vs Jerry Lewis like portrayal of Huck & Yogi. Two big stars I grew up with.
I always love your cartoon evolution videos, they're fun, informative, and pretty easy to follow. If you continue your trend of Hannah Barbara characters, I would love to see one about Loopey de loop. Or I'd love to see an evolution on Pepé le pew and Penelope pussycat. Keep up the good work!👍
I'm so happy for this. I am a fan of CN since a child and don't really judge shows without "trying" them. However I tend to be more skeptic of the more modern shows (post-2020). That means that I have avoided watching Jellystone, but when I finally did, it turned out quite interesting. Jellystone is meta-consious about Hanna-Barbera, placing many meta references throughout the show. I haven't grown up with Yogi bear and the other characters, so it's very interesting to know their histories
That's the thing about Jellystone. By no means should ANY of that stuff work, but it does and beautifully at that. it gives a great compromise between classic HB cartoons and a more modern Chowder-esque style of humor (considering the creator of Chowder is Jellystone's main showrunner). I refer to it as "Thundercats Roar, but Good."
HB: Hey Huck, were gonna make a Yogi movie, TV show and special! But don't worry...we haven't forgotten about you! Huck: Hmmm....im beginning to wonder if that Bear is upstaging me...
14:07 Hey!! I saw a Halloween mask like that at The Barker Animation Museum. But I think it was Bingo from The Banana Splits, but I'm sure they had one of Huckleberry Hound as well.
I grew up with several of those wood puzzles. One of them had Huckleberry Hound dressed as a jungle explorer. If I had to guess why Yogi Bear became more popular, I'd say him actually having supporting characters probably helped. It allowed him to have characters to consistently interact with.
Few suggestions Dave: 1. the Pink Panther 2. Garfield 3. The Simpsons 4. Southpark 5. Sanrio (Hello Kitty) 6. Astrix & Oblix or the Smurfs 7. Pixar 8. Top Cat 9. The other cartoons of Hanna Barbera (in a joint video) 10. Family Guy
My Favorite special is The Good , The Bad & The Huckleberry. To Me ,Huckleberry Hound would always be one Daws Butler’s Best Character next to Yogi. The special really Defines who he is. To the Chuckleberry Hound ,Huckleberry Hound🐶🪕.
Huck is not EXACTLY my favorite Hannah Barbera character (i am more a Pixie And Dixie or Snaglepuss fan), but i still enjoyed this video Dave. Also, i still EXCITED for the Garfield evolution video...
I hope I can still give a comment and huckleberry hound is one of my favorite characters and I love him in the good, the bad and huckleberry hound plus he's was awesome in jellystone so I hope huck will be in a hanna-barbera movie in the future!
Whenever Huck had to deal with another dog, like in the role of postal carrier, or fireman, I would think... "Can't you talk to him? Y'know, hound to hound?" 😆
Credit to Huck. He has every reason to be as bitter and jealous as Daffy Duck, but he still comes along for Yogi’s adventures with a smile on his face.
I love the videos. Other cartoon evolution videos i would love to see are alvin and the chipmunks, tmnt, little lulu, garfield, top cat, the smurfs, the simpsons, family guy, hey arnold, goofy's son max, king of the hill, arthur, bearenstein bears and Clifford the big red dog. Around the Holliday you should do rudolph, frosty and Santa claus.
(This is Tom, not Sandra.) HUCKLEBERRY HOUND was, and will be, my absolute favorite cartoon character of ALL TIME!!!! It's a darn shame H-B ended up relegating Huck to a co-starring role to that insipid Yogi Bear who couldn't open his mouth without rhyming every other word. That got REAL OLD, REAL FAST!! HUCK will always be my favorite cartoon character!!!! It's a real shame he ended up playing 2nd fiddle to those other less- funny H-B characters. HUCK really was an underrated cartoon character, (IMO.) He didn't get the love and respect he deserved. After all, he WAS the first, and maybe the only, H-B cartoon series to win an Emmy Award. HUCK premiered on TV a few days before l drew my first breath. I will always use that info. as a badge of honor. Thanks for posting this history of HUCKLEBERRY HOUND!!!! It was very informative. Thank You!!!!
I love this character, he's one of my favorites from Hanna Barbera, I'm surprised he's turning 65, he's already older than yogi, right? maybe yogi was something memorable but huck had more fun shorts than yogi.
The classic cartoons will always be my favorite of Huckleberry Hound. I guess I never thought he had been pushed back to second banana but with all that you talked about I can see how that can be. I feel for the poor hound but I can see that maybe Yogi should of been the main shows host when presented back when they wanted Yogi but the networks thought no he's too much like all the other bear characters and maybe later on Huckleberry might have shown through more like on how Yogi did. Just a thought. I would love to see Warner Bros. do a revival on all the Hanna Barbera shows from the 50's and 60's but bring them into a whole new era but still remain like they were in the older style and presented like the same as the shows back then but with new story plots.
And once again, another character tied to Yogi (at least this one deserved a separate video unlike Boo Boo who didn't). Inb4 we get Jinks, Hokey or Snagglepuss next because apparently this creator loves making videos of characters tied to Yogi as of late.
When will Tom and Jerry finally be a part of these Hanna Barbera animal crossovers? When will WB or Cartoon Network or whoever's in charge remeber that Hanna Barbera wouldn't be making masterpieces if it weren't for them?
Tom and Jerry are technically not “Hanna-Barbera” characters, they’re MGM characters - which is why they’re usually seen with the MGM group of characters (ie. Droopy).
Yes and no. Distribution yes but not the copyright. Turner has the copyright to the MGM shorts, Hanna Barbera still has the copyright to their characters. That said, the copyright could transfer to Warner Bros or Turner regarding the HB shows since then Pink Panther for example MGM didn't have the original copyright to him but eventually the copyright did transfered to MGM.
@@stephenholloway6893 but who was in charge of Tom and Jerry the movie? Warner bros. Who was in charge of the straight to dvd animated movies one of them crossing over with Johnny quest a Hanna barbera character? Warner bros. And who released the liveaction 2021 Tom and Jerry movie? Warner bros. So can you explain that?
Sure Warner approved those projects but if you noticed they still copyright credit to Turner with the MGM characters and Hanna Barbera to their characters. With my Pink Panther example in the 1993 series the original copyright for the character was still there despite DePatie Freleng no longer being active at that point. Point is while Warner could transfer the copyright of the characters to them so far they haven't done so to my knowledge Which is probably with few exemptions you don't see the properties Warner bought and owned in the same projects. Including the DC characters in this argument. Warner does distribution for those characters but they don't own the copyright to those characters either. I'm no copyright expert mind you but I would imagine that Warner chose not to transfer the copyright to them yet because of their long association with their respective owners (apart of the MGM characters which Turner did transfered the copyright to him).
6:20 Uh, I wouldn't TECHNICALLY consider "Dixie" Wolf to be "Antagonistic" in "BlackBoard Jumble", more like "At the wrong place at the wrong time" and "A teacher trying to teach a class to students who are being uncontrollable and unruly brats." It'd be nice if the creative staff at Warner Bros made more shorts for future Tom and Jerry series with the original unsung and underrated Tex Avery characters in their own headliner shorts. Like "Dixie Wolf", the Bulldog from the Droopy shorts and even Barney Bear. Not only would this be a good idea to reintroduce the T.A. characters to the Tom and Jerry fans, but also be a good idea to flush out the characters' personalities, backgrounds and origins. Just an idea if any WB creative staff are watching this or reading the comments!
Guess they got rid of the old west theme for Huck since they came up with their actual western character Quick Draw McGraw a year after Huckleberry Hound was made.

Which Hannah Barbara characters up next for the evolution
Hey is there any chance you do a look back on Top Cat
Yes, I do plan to give Top Cat a video sometime in the future!
@@DaveLeeDownUnder pog
When you think about it, Ruff and Reddy were like the Bosko and Honey of Hanna Barbera. The original star of a studio but mostly forgotten today.
@almabasurto2981 Then again I never said they were a couple just mostly forgotten like Bosko and Honey.
Am I the only one that likes huck more then yogi?
Guess they got rid of the old west theme for Huck since they came up with their actual western character Quick Draw McGraw a year after Huckleberry Hound was made.
Please do pixie and Dixie plus me jinks
💚
Do Rocky and Bullwinkle!
This is old cartoon character I don't know if many one knows about
Barney Bear.
yogi bear is just the Steve Urkel of the Hannah Barbara world and that's sad
I don't know if you done it or he has a evolution at all but droopy the dog?
Haven't done one yet, but he will be covered eventually!
@@DaveLeeDownUnder thanks do you think droopy can be the next evolution if you have time too?
we learned today that for at least 30 years huckleberry hound has been supporting yogi bear without a leading role since his own show
27:25 31:24, never expected this
Can you do quick draw mcgraw evolution and voice?
I'm still waiting for one on the Simpsons.
so did you write this before the hbo purge or after the purge becuse i don't know if jellystone will get a season 3
Jellystone Season 3 is currently in production, and so far has not been mentioned as one of the affected programs.
Huckleberry is like zee from total drama due to their laid back nature
Please make a video for the cartoon evolution of the looney tunes character named Melissa Duck please
