[[Yogi Bear (character)|Yogi]] | Proclaiming himself to be "smarter than the average bear," [[Yogi Bear (character)|Yogi Bear]] is [[Jellystone Park]]'s sneaky resident of the woods. He goes out with his friend and constant companion [[Boo Boo Bear|Boo Boo]] in numerous schemes within the area, namely using his wits in an attempt to steal picnic baskets (or "pic-a-nic baskets," as Yogi calls them). The two bears are usually chased down by [[Ranger Smith]], a stern authority figure strained by Yogi's antics. | ||

Yogi Bear's characterization was a spoof of [[wikipedia: Art Carney|Art Carney]], who was mainly notable for his role as Ed Norton in the [[1950s]] sitcom ''[[wikipedia: The Honeymooners|The Honeymooners]]''.<ref> [[Ted Sennett|Sennett, Ted]] ([[October 30]], [[1989]]). ''[[The Art of Hanna-Barbera]]'', page 60. [[Viking Studio Books]]. Retrieved [[November 23]], [[2022]].</ref> His personality largely came from similar traits to Carney's character, as the two share an identical hat, carefree attitude, and vocal inflection. | |||
Before he was given the title of "Yogi", the bear originally went by the names of "Huckleberry", "Yucca", and "Yo-Yo."<ref> [[Ted Sennett|Sennett]], page 59.</ref> The name "Huckleberry" was later given to the character of [[Huckleberry Hound (character)|Huckleberry Hound]], after "Yogi" was decided. | |||
Yogi Bear's name also share similarities, although unofficially, to that of Yankees baseball player [[wikipedia:Yogi Berra|Yogi Berra]]. Berra sued Hanna-Barbera for defamation over Yogi's name sounding too similar, but withdrew it when Hanna-Barbera stated that it was a coincidence.<ref>Dowing, Tim (23 September 2015). [https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/sep/23/yogi-berra-yogi-bear-baseball The blurred boundaries between Yogi Berra and Yogi Bear]]. ''The Guardian'' (2015).</ref> According to Joseph Barbera, he claimed that the name did not have a intended reference, but asserted that "the sound of the name was awash in our collective unconscious at a time when Yogi Berra was a very popular figure."<ref name= "Yogi Berra name">Gardner, Eriq (September 23, 2015).[https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/yogi-berra-suing-yogi-bear-826820 Yogi Berra Suing Over Yogi Bear? Take It With a Grin of Salt]. ''The Hollywood Reporter'' (2015).</ref> Berra, however, addressed the similarities of the name in a 1963 interview, stating "Television is big enough for both me and Yogi Bear. I was going to sue the Yogi Bear program for using my name, until somebody reminded me Yogi isn’t my real name — it’s Lawrence."<ref name= "Yogi Berra name" /> | |||

The popularity of Yogi Bear has also extended to its influence on National Park Service, with the character's appeal boosting visitation in most United States parks.

Despite these efforts, data on annual bear-related injuries in Yellowstone skyrocketed as a indirect result of Yogi's public image; Numbers rose to 69 injuries in 1960, as opposed to a drop from 37 in 1959. As one park service administrator had put it, the humorous roadside signs and flyers, such as those featuring Yogi, had "instill[ed] a sense of levity rather than one of seriousness in the visitor."

Yogi Bear is a series of animated segments as part of The Huckleberry Hound Show, The Yogi Bear Show and The New Yogi Bear Show, produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. Airing in syndication, it originally, it ran from 1958 to 1961, airing 35 segments before being replaced by the Hokey Wolf shorts for the third season in 1961, then airing 33 segments on The Yogi Bear Show from 1960 to 1961. In 1988, 45 segments were aired for the final incarnation, The New Yogi Bear Show. In total there were 113 segments that spanned five seasons across three decades.
Proclaiming himself to be "smarter than the average bear," Yogi Bear is Jellystone Park's sneaky resident of the woods. He goes out with his friend and constant companion Boo Boo in numerous schemes within the area, namely using his wits in an attempt to steal picnic baskets (or "pic-a-nic baskets," as Yogi calls them). The two bears are usually chased down by Ranger Smith, a stern authority figure strained by Yogi's antics.
Production
Development
Yogi Bear's characterization was a spoof of Art Carney, who was mainly notable for his role as Ed Norton in the 1950s sitcom The Honeymooners.[1] His personality largely came from similar traits to Carney's character, as the two share an identical hat, carefree attitude, and vocal inflection.
Before he was given the title of "Yogi", the bear originally went by the names of "Huckleberry", "Yucca", and "Yo-Yo."[2] The name "Huckleberry" was later given to the character of Huckleberry Hound, after "Yogi" was decided.
Yogi Bear's name also share similarities, although unofficially, to that of Yankees baseball player Yogi Berra. Berra sued Hanna-Barbera for defamation over Yogi's name sounding too similar, but withdrew it when Hanna-Barbera stated that it was a coincidence.[3] According to Joseph Barbera, he claimed that the name did not have a intended reference, but asserted that "the sound of the name was awash in our collective unconscious at a time when Yogi Berra was a very popular figure."[4] Berra, however, addressed the similarities of the name in a 1963 interview, stating "Television is big enough for both me and Yogi Bear. I was going to sue the Yogi Bear program for using my name, until somebody reminded me Yogi isn’t my real name — it’s Lawrence."[4]
Music
The music was composed by Hoyt Curtin.

Many of the spin-off TV series and movies are based on what was created for The Yogi Bear Show. The success of The Yogi Bear Show propelled Yogi onto the big screen in his only animated theatrical film, Hey There, It's Yogi Bear, released in 1964, becoming the first Hanna-Barbera movie to be distributed by Columbia Pictures.
