Lone Ranger Cartoon 1966 - Mr. Happy

Description

[@zelphx]

The GREAT GILDERSLEEVE!!! Love it!

[@zelphx]

This is Peary... Watterman never used that laugh out of respect when he took over as "Gildy". This was a DEFINITE over-use of the trade-mark laugh, though.

I remember this as a little kid, this was my first exposure to the Lone Ranger. The Wild Wild West influence is very clear. This show tends to reinforce certain stereotypes but at the same time gives Tonto a ton of respect and plenty of opportunity to shine either alone or with the Lone Ranger. I remember the artwork in particular. I have not seen a cartoon series like this before or since. The style was groundbreaking. I'd like to see a revival of these old shows, I've really enjoyed seeing them again. Thanks for posting.

The artwork style copies the one in "The Wild Wild West" opening titles...

[@tnawcwvictoria]

I remember watching these cartoons in reruns on the ACTS Network (now known as The Hallmark Channel during the late 80's

Laughing gas is colorless, not yellow.

[@diddymuck]

0:27 He's in the bank but sitting on his office's chair. obviously the scene was supposed to have a different background but that's OK. a very rare blooper from this impeccable series.

[@fjccommish]

Tarzan provided the voice for Tonto.

[@KeithDec25]

This actor was the voice of the GREAT GILDERSLEEVE on the radio

[@dougshoemaker7733]

The name of the actor doing the voice of Mr. Happy is Hal Peary.

[@KeithDec25]

+Doug Shoemaker Thanks.....Especially when he does the prolonged chuckle and sees to go up the scale and down...Hal Peary joins the ranks of the other distinguished character actors: Agnes Moorhead, Hans Conreid, Howard Morris and even Paul Winchelll Do we have ggreat voices like that today????????

[@diddymuck]

+Doug Shoemaker Or his Gildersleeve replacement Willard Waterman.

[@KeithDec25]

+diddymuck THANKS! Willard Waterman did replace Peary....Either of these actors did a totally professional job-YET I would like to know who it actually was...

[@charlesaguilar8301]

Thanks Doug,diddymuck and Keith! It's great to see a conveyance of information about the "Lone Ranger" cartoon! Keep it going! Kudos to you guys and God Bless!

[@mrmoore1970]

Wow, I’ve been trying to find this episode for years. I haven’t seen this since I was a kid. Thanks for this clip

[@tnawcwvictoria]

Mr. Happy almost reminds me of The Mad Hatter

[@lylejohnson7591]

I think that is Harold Perry who did the Great Gildersleve on radio.

[@arthurcabral9561]

The creative style of graphic representation and scripting was at the pinnacle of its achievement in 1966. This episode was done as conservative as possible. Repeats and loops, recycled again and again. Cells were individually drawn, cut-out, and photographed on selected backgrounds, using 35 mm film stock. Newer styles of animation using computer imaging were not yet developed. Thanks for posting this. It is real classic!

[@marcmel7]

Thank you so very much for uploading all these Lone Ranger cartoons! I used to watch them back home, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in the late '70s... I loved "The wild, wild West", so obviously I loved these cartoons too... I live in Canada now but I remember this part of my childhood back there with fondness... Thank you! By the way, I remember this episode very clearly, and the villain here was named, dubbed in Spanish, "Señor Jubilo", meaning literally, "Mister Joy"...

[@CartoonJam]

+marcmel7 you are welcome! I'm glad you enjoy them as much as we do!

[@thechucknorrisarchives892]

so did the lone ranger break his rule? never kill

[@donmanuel7868]

Holy Joker, Batman...!

[@dougshoemaker7733]

Don Manuel Hal Peary would have been great as the Joker.

[@charlesaguilar1708]

Doug Shoemaker Sorry,Caeser Romero was the "BEST JOKER" of all time!!

[@dougshoemaker7733]

Charles Aguilar I meant Hal Peary as an animated version of the Joker.

[@TheGreatPumpkin]

Absolutely hilarious.

[@diddymuck]

happy's the weirdest looking owlhoot in the Ranger's entire ensemble!

[@charlesaguilar1708]

diddymuck Hey Diddy! Don't you mean Hoot Owl?

[@arober9758]

Amazing!!

[@marcmel7]

Doesn't Mr. Happy look and act a lot like Dr. Humperdinck Dumpty, from the Spiderman cartoons? As a matter of fact, the voices sound alike... Could it be that the same actor did the voice for both characters?

[@Dluxn8r]

Mr. Happy=Jim Backus?

[@jaelynmoore1672]

The voice of mr magoo.

[@bloodgrss]

No, the voice of Mr. Hal Perry

[@Dluxn8r]

@@bloodgrss it sure does sound like JB, though.

[@bloodgrss]

Still more like Hal Perry-tho' JB and Hal had those somewhat pompous and blustery cartoon voices...@@Dluxn8r
