Baffled Bear " also brings to mind " The Stout Trout ". The story is told so well by Don Messick, as Yogi with very little lines plays it out. For sight gags though, I think " Baffled Bear " is better. Thinking of Martin's post, in the late 60's and very early 70's,we had a local television station that ran the " Huckleberry Hound Show " in it's original format with all the other seven minutes shorts that ran within his show. It was complete all the way down to the very rare " Screen Gems " Dancing Sticks logo. I noticed it was in the early 80s that the shorts were shown independently and some of the intros and outros had no music. Great job Yowp, as usual.Errolnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-47794695522960625372009-09-27T08:42:46.755-07:002009-09-27T08:42:46.755-07:00It's one of the few reasons why i so loved muc...It's one of the few reasons why i so loved much the Yogi Bear first cartoons. When i was a kid, i didn't make attentions on it but your analysis and rewatching this on YouTube few weeks ago (Remastered besides), i find this short funny and well organised.<br /><br />I love also how they give to Yogi some diverse bears roles instead to be a Jellystone havoc. It's a shame that a brillant series starting to be formulaic at the end of this season and much later.<br /><br />Keep your great work Yowp!Martin Juneauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00193943985570930659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-36944067711804600142009-09-27T02:37:32.146-07:002009-09-27T02:37:32.146-07:00Zartok, unfortunately the screen grab comments are...Zartok, unfortunately the screen grab comments are something I do if I have time and stuff strikes me. I'm involved in a pile of organisations which take up a lot of spare time starting about mid-September through the spring. Doing the cartoon posts every Saturday will be a challenge.<br /><br />Steve, <i>Motor Mania</i> is a great piece of satire and is one of my favourite Disneys (I don't have many). <br /><br />One imaginative bit I liked and didn't mention was when Messick does his "well, grouchy as a bear" and Yogi looks at the camera in disbelief. Or as much disbelief as you can get in limited animation.<br /><br />Hobbyfan, I don't know why they're packaged that way. Or when it started. The credit inconsistency was certainly in syndication in the '80s because I saw it.<br /><br />Tony, I never thought of Ted Knight; at first I thought of John Ployart but his narration voice in <i>The Dover Boys</i> is syrupy and <i>too</i> put on. Ted had a very even-pitched intone on <i>Aquaman</i> which may have worked (I can't believe I can actually hear it in my mind after 40-plus years). Paul Frees could have done it; he had a couple of different narration voices at his disposal.<br /><br />Actually, I'd like to have heard Criswell narrate. :)Yowphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09264605351878574044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-6232128008513587802009-09-26T23:39:29.228-07:002009-09-26T23:39:29.228-07:00Might I ALSO add, too, that the stock "snappi...Might I ALSO add, too, that the stock "snapping like a dog" bit of the car is my favorite part of both "Baffled bear" AND Disney's "Motor Mania"--that, and in the Disney short the "Raod Hog morph" gag...Steve Carras [Pokey]http://sjcarrasblog.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-50421735154408075712009-09-26T20:29:27.751-07:002009-09-26T20:29:27.751-07:00Great post as usual, Yowp ... made even better by ...Great post as usual, Yowp ... made even better by the many screenshots. I never laughed much while watching this cartoon, but Bick and Monte provided great visual interest. Muse had his moments, too. The directors ensured that the aural side was also good, with well-matched music and charming narration (though you have a point about the need for a portentous voice -- if only H-B could have hired Ted Knight 14 years before they actually did). <br /><br />The ending looks likeable with Yogi making the best of his situation, but maybe it gave Stephen King the idea for concluding his short story "Trucks." I'd hate to be a character in that tale ... stranded at a gas bar, servicing sentient vehicles.Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17446855706531749726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-11860980322645854492009-09-26T18:45:12.789-07:002009-09-26T18:45:12.789-07:00I saw this on Boomerang not too long ago in their ...I saw this on Boomerang not too long ago in their Yogi block. It would help immensely if Boomerang actually bothered to remaster the old Huck, Yogi, & Quick Draw shows so that all the toons are repackaged as they were originally shown. Not only that, but maybe you can offer some explanation as to why some shorts have intro music deleted?hobbyfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08089664500077967952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-16692359548430829402009-09-26T15:08:55.660-07:002009-09-26T15:08:55.660-07:00Oh, and technically thats not a Steam Shovel, that...Oh, and technically thats not a Steam Shovel, thats an Roller- Looks like a Bickenbach product! :PZartok-35https://www.blogger.com/profile/00449976580118722879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-48371792157178445022009-09-26T15:03:22.828-07:002009-09-26T15:03:22.828-07:00That was nice analysis.
