The Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera is an American animated syndicated live-action weekly programming block produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. The program ran from 1985 to 1994.

Overview

The block premiered on Sunday, September 15, 1985, and included an array of both old and new Hanna-Barbera original cartoon shows. The show aired on Sundays in most markets, but some stations broadcast it on both weekdays and Saturdays. The 1985 to 1987 season was hosted by legendary Hanna-Barbera mainstays, Yogi Bear, Quick Draw McGraw, Huckleberry Hound, and Snagglepuss in their live action costumed forms (all voiced by Daws Butler).

Each show included HBTV segments, featuring music videos of Hanna-Barbera cartoon clips. "It's Fun, Fun, Fun, Fun, Funtastic!", was the main theme song for the Funtastic World's first three seasons and it also became the theme for Yogi's newest series, Yogi's Treasure Hunt. Next, "The Down and Dirty Dinosaurs" from the game show Skedaddle hosted the 1988 edition, and then the 1990 edition was hosted by Kenny Ford and Jennifer Love Hewitt.

The shows featured in the animation block had both a superstar and superhero lineup of both old and new H-B animated characters. owned stations.
