Yippee, Yappee and Yahooey is a made-for-TV cartoon that William Hanna and Joseph Barbera produced for their company, Hanna-Barbera. It ran from 1964 to 1966 as a segment under The Peter Potamus Show, with a total of 23 episodes airing in syndication. Each episode followed a trio of goofy musketeer-like dog guards named Yippee, Yappee and Yahooey, whose job it is to protect the King, but often goof up and cause more trouble than protecting.
When we started creating characters for our YouTube channel, Yippee, Yappee, Yahooey and the King 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 with the exception of the King.
The first Yippee, Yappee and Yahooey story we produced for the channel, titled "The King's Protectors," which wasn't written by me. We likely don't have the original storyboard anymore. The plot followed the guards protecting the King. The second story, titled "Three Goofs and One Bandit," which also wasn't written by me, involved the guards protecting the King from a bandit. In the final story, "A Day Off," which I also didn't write, had the King giving the guards a day off.
We are still in the process of writing more Yippee, Yappee and Yahooey stories, as well as other Hanna-Barbera stories that you may see in the future. However, we haven't written a Yippee, Yappee and Yahooey story in a while as of 2023, but I hope we can create more in the near future.
