Peter Potamus Show, The (DVD)

Peter Potamus premiered in syndication courtesy of the masters of funny animals, Hanna-Barbera. Accompanied by his monkey sidekick, So-So, Peter Potamus crisscrosses the globe (and history!) in his preferred mode of travel, a magical flying balloon. Always ready to land and lend a hand, Peter has hilarious adventures in Egypt, France, Morocco and other global "fun spots" and whenever he and So-So get into trouble (and they always do), he's prepared with his mighty Hippo Hurricane Holler. Sharing the show are Breezly and Sneezly, a polar bear and seal, loveable layabouts dedicated to breaking INTO the local arctic army base and Yippee, Yappee, and Yahooey, a trio of slapstick swashbuckling palace guards pledged in service to the long-suffering king. Featuring voice work by Daws Butler, Don Messick, Howard Morris, Mel Blanc, John Stephenson, Doug Young and Hal Smith, The Peter Potamus Show is a time-capsule to classic kid animation.
