I like that the soundtrack basically telegraphs that every plan Phooey has is a ridiculous hairbrained scheme. 😆 #KungFuSat #HongKongPhooey

@cmdln@thecommandline.social And... [deep breath] How many crook-catchers could a crook-catcher-catching crook catch if a crook could catch crook-catchers? #KungFuSat #HongKongPhooey

If HKP needs help fighting a gorilla, maybe he should see how another superhero does it #KungFuSat #HongKongPhooey

Why in the name of #HannaBarbera would you change your car into a bicycle, and then a unicycle? That doesn't make any... and Spot the Cat caught the villains again! 🤦‍♂️ #KungFuSat #HongKongPhooey

The parents groups were against fighting, but were cool with the super short skirt on the female police officer Rosemary? Weird times. #KungFuSat #HongKongPhooey

@kcarr2015@mstdn.social I've noticed that IA's streaming player doesn't offer the casting button in Firefox-based browsers like Zen but does in Chrome-based browsers like Helium #KungFuSat #HongKongPhooey

Phone casting would not work to my TV. 🤦‍♂️ I finally got this thing to play on my television by running IE11 from my Xbox and searching for the episodes on archive.org. #KungFuSat #HongKongPhooey

"Parents’ groups like Action for Children’s Television held powerful sway over the networks, and they didn’t approve of any fighting at all, let along kung fu fighting. A cartoon about a martial arts hero could only make it to air as long as he never actually landed a blow. Thus Hong Kong Phooey was forced into the role of what I call the “accidental hero”: he could save the day, not by taking any genuine action, but only by accident." #KungFuSat #HongKongPhooey

"Kathy also has many fond memories of working on Hong Kong Phooey. “It was very much a family. We would record, and then during breaks, Scatman would bring his ukulele, and we would all go out into the parking lot,” she remembers, adding, “Scatman was a really sweet and generous guy.”" https://cartoonresearch.com/index.php/number-one-super-guy-the-50th-anniversary-of-hong-kong-phooey/ #Ukelele #KungFuSat #HongKongPhooey
