I think if I stopped buying things right now, it would probably take me like 5 years to get through all the shows I have on my Plex Server...

It feels kind of wild how many things Hanna Barbera was involved in.

I knew of like a couple dozen of their shows, but for some reason only Scooby-Doo was the one that I was aware of being theirs.  

The Jetsons, Flintstones, Yogi Bear.
They had a big Smurfs show.  

" Together, animators Hanna and Barbera created one of the most memorable cartoons in history—Tom and Jerry. During the rise of television in the 1950s when film studios ceased producing cartoons, Hanna and Barbera saved the field of animation through talent, innovation, and hard work. At a time when General Motors sold 50% of all cars in the United States, the television program 60 Minutes referred to Hanna-Barbera as "the General Motors of animation." As it turned out, Hanna-Barbera would eventually go even further by producing nearly two-thirds of all Saturday morning cartoons in a single year.  "

This kind of domination is wild.

That's an interesting blindspot, with you knowing so much yet missing the connection.

I probably learned about it as a kid from some licensing deal for a theme park lol.

Also I watched a bit of scooby doo today
