The Hanna-Barbera New Cartoon Series
''The Hanna-Barbera New Cartoon Series'', a.k.a. ''The New Hanna-Barbera Cartoon Series'' or ''The Wally Gator Show'', was a syndicated television package of animated cartoon series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions, starting in 1962. The show included three unrelated short cartoon segments featuring talking animal characters: * ''Wally Gator'' * '' Touché Turtle and Dum Dum'' * '' Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har Har'' The package consisted of 52 episodes, each with three individual segments and no bridge animation. Each individual cartoon segment, had its own opening theme and closing title. The title ''The New Hanna-Barbera Cartoon series'' was an off-screen promotional title to distinguish this package from other Hanna-Barbera cartoons (such as ''The Ruff and Reddy Show'', ''The Huckleberry Hound Show'' and ''The Yogi Bear Show'', all of which had bridge animation between the cartoons) available at the time.

Lippy The Lion And Hardy Har Har
''Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har Har'' is an animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera and aired as part of the 1962 series ''The Hanna-Barbera New Cartoon Series'' starring the titular anthropomorphic lion and hyena duo in a series of goofy misadventures. History Lippy the Lion (voiced by Daws Butler impersonating Joe E. Brown) and Hardy Har Har the hyena (voiced by Mel Blanc) first appeared in ''The Hanna-Barbera New Cartoon Series'' in 1962, along with Wally Gator and Touché Turtle and Dum Dum. Mel Blanc used the same voice, personality and expressions for Hardy Har Har that he used playing the postman on the Burns and Allen radio show. Their cartoons revolved around ever-hopeful Lippy's attempts to do a get-rich-quick scheme, with reluctant Hardy serving as a foil. Whatever the consequences were to Lippy's schemes, Hardy would end up getting the worst of it — a fact he always seemed to realize ahead of time, with his moans of "Oh me, oh my, oh dear".
