Hokey Wolf (segments)


 * This article is about the TV series. For the main title character, see Hokey Wolf''.

Hokey Wolf is an animated American television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions for NBC's Saturday morning children's programming debuting as segments on The Huckleberry Hound Show, as the replacement of the Yogi Bear shorts after Yogi got his own show. It ran from 1961 and 1962, airing 28 episodes.

Development
After it was discovered that Yogi Bear was more popular then Huckleberry Hound, he was moved to his own show. But since Yogi was no longer on The Huckleberry Hound Show, his spot was replaced by Hokey Wolf. Dick Bickenbach, (known for drawing many other Hanna-Barbera characters like Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear and Quick Draw McGraw) drew Hokey Wolf and Ding-a-Ling's model sheets.

Somewhere in between early production, Hokey was originally attended to be named "Wacko Wolf". However, his name was quickly changed to "Hokey Wolf" due to another similar looking character already using the name at the time.
