We know that sometime during the 60s and 70s, HB cranked out some really lousy cartoons, most of which were based on a then current fad, were highly formulaic or merely annoying.
So... out of that bunch, which one (ones) do you think is (are) the worst?

(and please, don't turn this into a flame war)

Sealab 2020 (at least something good came out of that one) and Super Globetrotters (nothing good came out of that one). (Dis)Honorable mention goes to the Skatebirds suite of shows.

Anything after "Wacky Races" and before the takeover by Turner (which IMO resulted in somewhat of a renaissance).

Anything after "Wacky Races" and before the takeover by Turner (which IMO resulted in somewhat of a renaissance).

Very close to the truth. Two shows from the 1970s -- Wait Till Your Father Gets Home! and These Are The Days -- were praised by critics. Otherwise, it was an insipid era at H-B.

While not a TV series, I can not stand at all... god, I can't say it, I'll just put this picture.

This movie gets the award for "most predictable picture of 1986'. Besides, I hate that overrated dog anyway.

As a Three Stooges collector, I have all of Joe Besser's voiceover work for HB in my library.

But watching LAFF-A-LYMPICS or YOGI'S SPACE RACE is a chore... the animation is ten notches down from HB's '60s output, the stories are reworkings of WACKY RACES, the writing is juvenile and cornball, etc.

I watched them once just to verify condition, and log audio and video notes for my library... and once is enough. Not again.
