YIPE! Poor Jon! :( :o :eek:

It should be noted in the original run of that awful show, a classic Herman & Katnip cartoon was used as the second cartoon. If the people at Harvey were smart, they could've just made a bunch of half-hour shows with Herman & Katnip, Baby Huey, and Little Audrey...:shrug:

I'm surprised the Spumco-style Baby Huey shorts didn't make it into the Harveytoons syndication package.

At least they managed to fit in a 4th cartoon into each of the shows shown today.

I did enjoy the 1960s Casper tv cartoons as it was cool to the see the original "Ghostly Trio" again.I haven't seen the tv Casper shorts in over twenty years and I manged to tape those cartoons and as for Richie Rich and I din't like them.I will say this about the 1996 verison of Richie Rich, that Film Roman at least stayed true to the original comic book character designs instead of the god awful Hanna Barbera version of the 1980s.

I think the brief filler cartoons made for the second season of "The Baby Huey Show" were worse. One was about Dollar having to pee; it ended with an overhead view of the dead/discolored grass forming a dollar sign.
