The Abbott & Costello Cartoon Show, also known as Abbott & Costello, is an American animated comedy television series produced by Hanna-Barbera and RKO General. It first aired in syndication. It ran from 1967 to 1968, airing 39 episodes that spanned one season.
A half-hour show starring the comedy duo, it follows the animated misadventures of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. The two were wildly known for their personalities, with Abbott acting as the cunning straight man, and Costello as the innocent, yet bumbling foil to the former.
The series was originally syndicated by Gold Key Entertainment and King World Productions, with the rights later being acquired by Warner Bros. Television Distribution, who currently holds rights to the cartoon.
Production
Development
During production, Bud Abbott, an original actor for the Abbott & Costello series, provided the voice of his animated self in the hopes of getting some more money. By the time the cartoon was produced, Lou Costello had already passed away, so his voice was done by a close friend named Stan Irwin.
Since the actual Abbott was near death during production of the series, Costello was the focus of the cartoons.
Music
The music was composed by Hoyt Curtin.
