Blast-Off Buzzard is a series of animated segments as part of the CB Bears, produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions for NBC's Saturday morning children's programming debuting. It ran in 1977, airing 13 episodes that spanned one season.

Many fans call the segments "Hanna-Barbera's versions of Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner," and there's no telling why they do: The segments follow a Buzzard named Blast-Off Buzzard, who tries numerous attempts to catch a snake named Crazylegs, most likely for food purposes.

Also just like Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner, they don't speak and usually just make sounds instead, up until their Tom & Jerry Kids appearances, where they actually can talk.
