    Yet another digustingly bad drawing styles for an animated show. Why
    are this lazy-ass generation so intent on destroying old favourites?
    Jealousy over their predecessors having actual creative talent? :-(

    "I grew up watching tons of Hanna-Barbera cartoons and have a deep love
    for these characters," ... so why make them look like complete crap and 'reimagine' them in ridiculous new jobs?!

    Jellystone!: Hanna-Barbera Characters Return
    in HBO Max Original Animated Series
    --------------------------------------------
    Yogi, Boo Boo, and Cindy, alongside an epic ensemble cast of
    Hanna-Barbera characters, are returning to television screens
    in the all-new animated comedy, Jellystone! The Max Original
    series helmed by acclaimed showrunner and executive producer
    C.H. Greenblatt (Chowder, Harvey Beaks) and produced by
    Warner Bros. Animation, presents a reimagined take on these
    beloved characters, modernizing them for today's family
    audience and introducing them to a new generation of fans.
    Season 1 premieres Thursday, July 29 on HBO Max.

    Set in the charming town of the same name, Jellystone!
    follows an ensemble of Hanna-Barbera characters as they live,
    work, play, and (as is often the case), destroy the town in
    some silly way together. Huckleberry Hound proudly serves as
    the town's mayor; Cindy, Boo Boo, and Yogi are the town's
    medical staff; Jabberjaw works at Magilla's clothing store
    where they supply all the bow ties and hats to the town's
    citizens, and every character has a specific role in the
    community. Their paths cross in fun and ridiculous ways,
    turning everyday activities into hilarious pandemonium.

    Check out the official trailer below:

    "I grew up watching tons of Hanna-Barbera cartoons and have
    a deep love for these characters," said Greenblatt. "The
    massive amount of both classic and not-so-classic characters
    we were able to use from the Hanna-Barbera library is what
    really makes the Jellystone! universe special. Rather than
    recreate the feeling of cartoons of the past, we wanted to
    have silly, weird fun with these characters and expand their
    personalities to give them more depth. Chances are if
    there's a character you love, you'll see them somewhere in
    this world eventually. We hope longtime fans appreciate our
    take on this world, and we're excited that parents get to
    introduce and enjoy their favorite Hanna-Barbera characters
    with their kids."

    Greenblatt serves as showrunner and executive producer, and
    voices several characters including Doggie Daddy, Boo Boo,
    Peter Potamus, and Benny. Joining him in this talented voice
    cast includes: Jeff Bergman, the voice of Yogi, Mr. Jinks,

    Wow, the pix in that article do look bad. On the other hand, Cartoon Network gave the Ren & Stimpy guy several Yogi shorts a few years ago, and they
    looked even worse than that.

    There was a John K. Yogi series on CN too! There were the shorts but he got a series too! I remember seeing it! (until John K. refused to come up with new episodes soon enough)
