“Hanna-Barbera”; Master Cartoonists, Keepers of the Picnic Basket.
William Hanna and Joseph Barbera were without a doubt, two of the most influential cartoonists in the history of animation. Basically, if you watched a cartoon from 1960s-1990s, it was most likely created by this duo. It would take a mighty list to go over all the cartoons they have created, but my top five are: (in no particular order) Tom and Jerry, The Flintstones, Yogi Bear, Snorks and The Jetsons.
With all of today’s CGI and computer-assisted cartoons, it’s difficult to remember that there was a time when these 30-min adventures were all hand-drawn by people who loved their craft. It’s also hard to imagine two people who provided me so much entertainment after school while I was growing up (and so many great memories, 25 years later).
