Lahr actually sued Butler, Hanna-Barbera, and Kellogg's (the sponsor) for "stealing his act." Until Lahr's death, whenever Snagglepuss appeared in a commercial, it had to include (in small type at the bottom of the screen) "Snagglepuss' Voice by Daws Butler."
Very funny! I'd forgotten how appealing this character was. Nice to see in sharply restored color. As a child in the 60's, I never saw any of the Sat. morning cartoons, or any other programs, in color. These TV cartoons almost always placed great importance on distinctive voices, making them stand-out & memorable, & one of the most appealing factors behind them. The short segments had clever premises, too, with good pacing & surprising, funny situations. I'm sure this helped counteract the sometimes stiff, limited animation techniques used, not that a child would be any the wiser. I certainly wasn't!
You make a good point. Between being limited by the technology of televisions at the time (not that people didn't have colored sets at the time they were just more expensive and less common) as well as the stiff animation to save on costs they probably relied more on the actors to put on a good performance as well as a good story to grab the audience's attention. If it wasn't for the characters being unique, likable, and having a great performance I feel like a lot of Hanna-Barbera cartoons wouldn't be remembered as fondly,
@@cyclops8238 You make great points! For those interested in the history of animation, such as myself, these Sat. morning, primarily but not exclusively, HB cartoons, offer some lessons---distinctive voices customized to each, however minor, character's personality, as well as clever premises & humor, can carry a cartoon even if cost-cutting, minimal animation techniques are used. I've noticed, also, that, in these HB cartoons, as well as others of the Sat. a.m. TV genre of decades ago, characters are sharply or boldly drawn, standing-out clearly on the screen, registering well against colorful, well-defined backgrounds.
When I watch yogi first Christmas when snagglepuss saw a snow monster and was standing up to it it was like him defending a villain and rescue a damsel in distress
I wonder if this character could, if shown on the movie screens of today, lead to a revival of short-cartoons in movie theaters. By this I mean, the original ones from the Sat. morning TV series, such as the excerpt we see here, in their entirety, of course. Not computerized remakes but the originals, restored in sharp color as seen here.The kids of today never saw them. For baby boomers like me, it could be a nice jolt of nostalgia. I can't think of another character like Snaggy, an animal character exhibiting a kind of straightforward human intelligence with an advanced vocabulary. Most important of all, this character's cartoons are funny as heck! Hmmm, I'm going to ponder this further! It's long past time for cartoon-shorts to return to theaters!
Snag was and still is a favorite of mine along with yogi and magilla and Scooby and captain caveman I don't see him as gay he's a mountain lion...people are freaking obnoxious and crazy. Why do they have to put labels on everything and everyone? That's just biased and very aggravating!
@rxp56 He's not "gay", he's Bert Lahr: As in, he's a COWARDLY LION??--Oh, c'mon, you must've made the connection when you were a kid. (And the imitation was a lot less subtle in the days when he was a comic foil for Quick-Draw McGraw.)
@@ericjanssen394Yeah. Even Joseph Barbera stated that Snagglepuss wasn't a gay character. He even mentioned that Berth Mar, who was the inspiration for the character, had hit his wife once.

@@ericjanssen394 Lots of H-B characters were voice imitations of various actors. Yogi Bear was (based on) Art Carney; Mr. Jinks, Marlon Brando; Hokey Wolf, Phil Silvers; Snagglepuss, Bert Lahr; Doggie Daddy (Augie Doggie series,) Jimmy Durante; Super Snooper (Snooper & Blabber series,) Ed Gardner (radio actor, "Duffy's Tavern,") Peter Potamus, Joe E.

All these people on here saying snagglepuss is gay....I grew up watching those cartoons, and that's all they were to me - Just....cartoons. Can gay people stop identifying with a cartoon character they've appropriated for their own gratification. Has anyone ever heard of a " straight pride" parade? No. Wonder why?
John M The guy above me corrected you on your first homophobic rant, so allow me to follow up with a second tidbit of info. The reason there are gay pride parades is because for the longest time, gays were not given the same rights as straight people. They were brought up feeling ashamed of who they were. Women and blacks also held rallies for equal treatment. In your eyes, I guess all 3 groups should have just kept their mouths shut, right?
He’s so cute. Adorable, even.
Indeed, I say! Indeed!
"I was beginning to think that I'm the only dimwit around here!"
Oh Snag!🤣😂
He's funny.
Hillarious even
I agree even.
i have been TRYING to find clips where he says even but i just can not.
He IS fabulous
seraphimprince yes
Love how the director is fine and chill about a 6’ tall humanoid puma talking to him
This isn't real. If you look closely, it's cgi.
Millennial style "observations" on these slapstick Hanna-Barbera cartoons. Wonderful.

I miss these kinds of witty monologue jokes in cartoons!
Daws Butler based Snagglepuss' voice of Bert Lahr. Who was best known for The Cowardly Lion in the 1939 Wizard of Oz film.
Lahr actually sued Butler, Hanna-Barbera, and Kellogg's (the sponsor) for "stealing his act." Until Lahr's death, whenever Snagglepuss appeared in a commercial, it had to include (in small type at the bottom of the screen) "Snagglepuss' Voice by Daws Butler."
Imagine Hanna Barbera Themeselves almost got sued for making Top Cat And The Flintstones for being parodies of live action sitcoms
There's no star....on ma' dressin room door. 🌟🌟🌟😂😂😂🐯🐅🐾
Snagglepuss is a winner. Heavens to murgatroid!
Los mejores recuerdos de mi infancia como estas ningunas
The manner in which Snagglepuss speaks is HILARIOUS!!!!....🤣🤣🤣
I always loved it when "Whose Line Is It Anyway" made Snagglepuss jokes.

It's more straight people calling him gay, not that gay people identify with him.
