Hello and welcome back to the channel guys! Many remember cartoons like Tom & Jerry, Kids Next Door, Scooby-Doo, but only a few remember Hanna-Barbera's crime-fighting dog with martial arts skills, and his bumbling, polite nature, along with his feline partner called Spot in the cartoon show "Hong Kong Phooey". It had a brief stay on ABC Saturday mornings in 1974, but it sure was a memorable time, especially with the martial arts boom Hollywood was having back then! So, what happened that the show suddenly stopped producing after the first season ended? Was it a budget issue or some sort of backlash? Is it similar to what happened to Scrappy-Doo, which is another character of Hanna-Barbera? And will it be making a comeback anytime soon? Check out this video and find out! #HongKongPhooey #HannaBarbera #ScatmanCrothers #Penry #spotthecat
