Behind the Scenes: The Making of Secret Squirrel for Our YouTube Channel


Secret
 Squirrel and Morocco Mole 
is a made-for-TV cartoon that William Hanna and Joseph Barbera produced for their company, Hanna-Barbera. It ran from 1965 to 1966 as a segment under The Atom Ant/Secret Squirrel Show, with a total of 26 episodes airing on NBC. Each episode followed well armored secret agent, Secret Squirrel, and his sidekick, Morocco Mole, as they stop
evildoers' crimes.

When we started creating characters for our YouTube channel, both Secret and Morocco were in the first lineup we did for modeling, we made them as they were part of HB's history, I did all modeling work for the characters with the exception being Morocco's head.

The first Secret Squirrel story we produced for the channel, titled "The Jewelry Theft," which wasn't written by me. I don't know if we still have the original storyboard. The plot followed Secret Squirrel and Morocco Mole investigating a jewelry store robbery. The second story, titled "Criminal on the Run," which also wasn't written by me, involved Secret Squirrel and Morocco Mole looking for clues. In the final story, "On the Case," which I also didn't write, had Secret Squirrel and Morocco Mole investigating a museum robbery.

We are still in the process of writing more Secret Squirrel stories, as well as other Hanna-Barbera stories that you may see in the future. However, we haven't written a Secret Squirrel story in a while as of 2023, but I hope we can create more in the near future.
