I'd sure like to hear an update on Quick Draw, too.

From Amazon (pre-order/order link below)--release date August 26, 2025:

Huckleberry Hound Show: Complete Series (11pc)

Rediscover one of the most beloved good ol’ hound dogs ever in this comprehensive anthology of Hanna-Barbera’s landmark animated series THE HUCKLEBERRY HOUND SHOW. This complete collection presents all 68 half-hour episodes – following studio broadcast records as a guide - as originally aired during the series’ four seasons on television. Meticulously restored from 4K scans of original 35mm negatives, everyone’s favorite blue hound dog never looked better. The cool canine charmed early TV audiences with his unique personality, a slow southern drawl and fast wit that’ll win over audiences of all ages. Viewers also got familiar with Pixie and Dixie (and nemesis Mr. Jinks the cat, who hated meeses to pieces”) and future icons Yogi Bear and sidekick Boo Boo, as well as later shows which introduced the irrepressible Hokey Wolf, all of whom starred in their own segments. To faithfully present these episodes as originally aired, you’ll note each show contains original bumpers and bridges, as well as rarely seen vintage commercials featuring the characters from the series. A timeless tribute to the talents at Hanna-Barbera, including voice artists Daws Butler and Don Messick, this new collection enables you to experience the adventures of Huck, Yogi and their pals just as they first burst on the television scene decades ago, and proving that their animated hi-jinks remain as clever and entertaining as ever.

Just ordered it today (Using the provided link). The gift card I received made it come out to $10.

Based on what George Feltenstein said on The Extras, The Huckleberry Hound Show end titles were only available in black and white, so that's what they used on the blu-ray set.

That's what they should have done with Top Cat.

stevea · 08-29-2025, 10:53 AM

According to posts on Home Theater Forum, there appears to be a delay on the Huck. Hound set.

No shipping on mine yet.

Not having Blu-Ray, I hope somebody will upload the end credits onto YouTube, where the copyright date is clear! I mean 1958, 1959, and all the others.

Ditto on Top Cat. I still don’t know who wrote which episode and who animated each one. Wikipedia has a good Flintstones rundown, but not TC.

Thanks for pointing out that excellent listing of The Flintstones episodes on Wikipedia, complete with production numbers. Whoever did this must have access to the original black and white credits.

The only error I spotted was episode 154 writing credit, which is correct in a note with the episode, and is correct on-screen. A note with episode 153 correctly states that 154 also uses the "Open Up Your Heart" closing credits.

You can usually find a Sony Blu-ray (with remote and adapter ) for $5 at one of the many local thrift stores. Plug it in to test before you buy, and if the tray opens and the light turns green on the player, it should be good .

*edit* the one I have been using for over a year was a thrift store buy.

I finally got a shipping notice last night, and Amazon delivery is due Tuesday., September. 9.

I think the set was unofficially delayed for some reason. I'd like ti think they wer overwhelmed with pre-orders.

Hopefully that's encouraging news for future animation projects that I am really looking forward to.

This Huckleberry Hound Show release is absolutely perfect. Who could ask for anything more?

It's exactly as George Feltenstein described it. It's what Top Cat could have been, should have been.

It leaves you wanting more. Could Quick Draw look like this? The Biugs Bunny Show? Let's go for broke. The early seasons of The Flintstones?
