Production
Development
After Yogi Bear was getting moved from the Huckleberry Hound Show to on his own show in 1961, a recurring antagonist from the Quick Draw McGraw Show called "Snagglepuss" was borrowed and used as one of the sister segments of the Yogi Bear Show.
According to Joseph Barbera, the character was based on that of Bert Lahr, with the voice, personality and likeness being based on Lahr.
Music
The music was composed by Hoyt Curtin.

Legacy
Snagglepuss would continue to appear in later media made by Hanna-Barbera, including Yogi's Gang, Yogi's Treasure Hunt, and Yo, Yogi!, as well as Williams Street's Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law on Adult Swim, and Warner Bros. Animation's Jellystone! on HBO Max. A comic was published by DC Comics in 2019 called Exit Stage Left!: The Snagglepuss Chronicles, which saw Snagglepuss as a gay playwright during the arms race of the 1970s.
On December 1, 2022, actor Jim Parsons teased that he would voice Snagglepuss in an upcoming project.[1]
