First Up...The Jetsons in -
Oh George!???
Jane:
Sweetheart, Mr. Spacely called, and he wants to know when you'll be finishing the Jupiter account. I don't know how long I can stall him.
George:
Gee, Jane, you think he'd give me a break. I slaved over that account for ten minutes last night. And if he doesn't like it, I can always go to Cogswell Cogs.
Jane:
Honey...you're going to have to tell him sometime.
George:
I know...It's just he...well...when I told him about my Real Life Test, he wouldn't hear of it. He said, 'Jetson! You've got fifteen minutes to finish with this nonsense...'
Jane:
Well, you have to admit, fifteen minutes is an awfully long time.
George:
I know. It only took twelve minutes, fortunately, and that was including the surgery. Tell him if he calls again that I'll be back after lunch, okay?
Jane:
Well, okay. I'm so glad we have medical insurance. Oh, and by the way? You look great in maroon, honey!
Next...Yogi Bear in -
Oh Oh BooBoo Wow!
Yogi:
Ah...gee, BooBoo, whatcha doin?
BooBoo:
Nuthin', Yogi, just gettin' ready.
Yogi:
Ah...BooBoo...we're only going to TGIFridays...what's takin' you so long?
BooBoo:
Gee...Yogi...Give me a minute...I'm just gettin'...ready...give me a sec, okay?
Yogi:
Oh...fuck...BooBoo...
BooBoo:
Oh....Yogi!
And to round our our show...
Jonny Quest: Summer Fun!
Race Bannon:
I'm a little worried about Jonny, Professor Quest.
Dr. Benton Quest:
How so, Race? He did well last term especially in chemistry. Since he's been away at boarding school, I've heard nothing but good news.
Race:
Well, I'm glad to know that he did well, but it's the chemistry that has me concerned ...really.
Dr. Quest:
I'm sure everything is okay. What could possibly go wrong?
Race:
Well, he and Hadjii have been...experimenting...since he got back for summer vacation.
Dr. Quest:
I really think you're worrying too much, Race. You need to lighten up.
Race:
Well, Dr. Quest, he's your kid, but maybe you should wait until you see the two of them. Hadjii, Jonny? Can you guys come here for a moment?
Hadjii and Jonny:
Okay! Just a second.....Okay...what's up?
Dr. Quest:
Oh...MY GAWWWWDDDD!!!!

Well, holy-gosh
Well, holy-gosh snickerdoodles, that was a romp :)
You had FAR too much fun putting that together; ergo, it MUST be illegal.
Well done, Andrea. Wow.
Who knew...
My Facebook Profile picture is Boo Boo! (Apparently there's a "pick your favorite childhood cartoon character" thing going around...)
Nice to know someone else knows about Boo Boo. (But I'd not have been chasing Yogi! LOL
Thanks for these,
Anne
Mine?
I loved Jonny Quest, but if I was able to choose, it'd be Penelope Pitstop.

What next, Warner Bros Looney Toons?
But then it's obvious.
Bugs has long crossed dressed, or is it cross dressing? Elmer Fudd carries a BIG gun. What is HE really hunting for?
The Road Runner is always teasing the coyote. IE is this a case of the lone wolf and the fast woman?
Sylvester and Tweety?
The line between love and hate is a thin one or so the old saying goes.
The mind boggles.

This was more entertaining (and smarter) than the average Hanna Barberra offering, but how could you do a tribute to them without including The Flintstones? Maybe you figured Jennifer Brock already had them covered with her cute drabble ( http://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/fiction/9465/drabble-theatre-f... ), but I'd've loved to see your TG take on the modern stone age let's-redo-the-Honeymooners-but-replacing-all-the-funny-parts-with-an-endless-succession-of-lame-"rock"-jokes-
Oops. Okay I'll admit it. I'm a big cartoon snob. Never cared for 90% of what HB did. The humor was so damned middlebrow, their "satiric" pop culture referrences so trite, devoid of any of the Warner Brother's caustic wit or the delicious absurdism of Jay Ward Studios. Or maybe it's just me, the era I grew up in. As a young wannabe hippie radical I grokked pretty quick that the whole subtext of the Flintstones and the Jetsons was a celebration of middle class suburbia, comforting the squares with the notion that from 1,000,000 BC to the domed hydraulic Wonderland of Tomorrow, everything, everywhere was just like them (GAAAAHHHHH!!!!). So the consumerist propaganda organ known as Hanna Barbera were the enemy. The ESTABLISHMENT (although I did appreciate Yogi Bear as an anarchist folk hero, "ripping off the bourgeousie" and "sticking it to the Man", Ranger Smith...).
Since then I've chilled a bit, seeing their stuff through a haze of nostalgia, as harmless fluff. If I should live so long I might mellow out about The Family Guy too. I actually got a phone call from Peter Griffin once, but that's another story. Thanks for the Saturday Morning cartoons, Drea dear...
