Around the World in 79 Days is a made-for-TV cartoon that William Hanna and Joseph Barbera produced for their company, Hanna-Barbera. It ran in 1969 as a segment under Cattanooga Cats, with a total of 17 episodes airing on ABC. Each episode followed Phineas Fogg's great, great grandson, Phineas Fogg Jr., traveling with reporter Jenny Treat, and her cameraman Hoppy, in order to travel around the world in less than 80 days to acquire his great great grandfather's fortune, if they fail to complete the task, the fortune will go to former butler, Crumden, who tries to stop their travel, with Crumden are Bumbler, and Crumden's pet monkey, Smirky.
When we started creating characters for our YouTube channel, the whole cast were in the first lineup we did for modeling, we made them as they were part of HB's history, I did the modeling work for Crumden.
The first Around the World in 79 Days story we produced for the channel, titled "Finny in New Mexico," which wasn't written by me. I don't know if we still have the original storyboard. The plot followed Finny stopping in at New Mexico. The second story, titled "The Race to Alaska," which also wasn't written by me, involved Pinny stopping in at Alaska. In the final story, "A Trip Down Egypt," which also wasn't written by me, had Pinny stopping in at Egypt.
We are still in the process of writing more Around the World in 79 Days stories, as well as other Hanna-Barbera stories that you may see in the future. However, we haven't written a Around the World in 79 Days story in a while as of 2023, but I hope we can create more in the near future.
