Default Anyone remember the cartoon?

In 1967 Hanna-Barbera, RKO, and Jomar Studios made a syndicatewd 156-episode animated series with Bud Abbott's 9as himself natch) voice of this show. Stan Irwin was the comedian who could be heard as Lou Costello.

Additional Voices
<li>Mel Blanc</li>
<li>Janet Waldo</li>
<li>Daws Butler</li>
<li>Don Messick</li>
<li>Hal Smith</li>
<li>Paul Frees</li>
<li>John Stephenson</li>

The show was one of the earlier HB show to use the fully developed (from sound effects libraries of earlier studios0 H-B cartoon sound sf such as the metellac BONG heard at the end of the onscreen titles, a splat, the wheehweeeh, a electronic vibrating sound,most of them then new to HB but soon to be standard issue with them.

Yeah, I remember watching this when I was a kid. Channel 11 used to show reruns.

It wasn't the same with someone else doing Lou Costello...
