Production
Development
In developing the lead character of the series, animator and layout artist Jerry Eisenberg recounted on how Peter Potamus was created:
"Once I was thinking about a hippopotamus… Since I was overweight, I could relate to that. So I started making some drawings in the Hanna-Barbera style—the character standing on two legs. I put a safari coat on him and a pith helmet. Joe kind of liked it, so he got some writers together and we began to work on it. I don't know who came up with the name, but that was Peter Potamus."
- Jerry Eisneberg[1]
Music
The score was composed by Hoyt Curtin.
