Hanna-Barbera’s OTHER out-of-time family comedy.
Joining us tonight is the always delightful Kittyhawk, artist and writer of Sparkling Gneration Valkyrie Yuuki.

We talk about:
The All-New…

You jumped over some of my buses!
No wonder Kittyhawk calls this the drug era.
Hmm… This setting looks familiar!
Well, at least Hanna-Barbera kept its star roster active. Even if it was in the Laff-A-Lympics.
I don’t even remember this episode.
