- This article is about the TV series. For the title character, see Johnny Bravo.
Johnny Bravo is an American animated comedy TV series produced by Hanna-Barbera Cartoons (seasons 1-3) and Cartoon Network Studios (season 4) for Cartoon Network. It ran from 1997 to 2004, airing 65 episodes.
In Aron City, lives a young man called Johnny Bravo, who seems to have the full package on the service, being tall, muscular, wears rather cool sunglasses, an Elvis Presley-esque voice, and has a unique yellow pompadour, but underneath he is a dimwitted, self-absorbed, chauvinistic manchild, who's attempt to get a date leads him into bizarre and almost always violent situations.

For the first season, Bodie Chandler was the director of music production.
