Bruh so i just realized how underpowered the really rottens are compared to the other 2 teams. Like the scooby doobies have two superheros, a robot dog, a fucking genie, a sentient car, a dog who know martial arts and ultrainstinct shaggy. The yogi yahooeys have a FUCKING KAIJU. The most physically powerful rotten was dinky who is nothing compared to great ape or captain caveman. And dont even get me started on their equipment bruh. You know that millionaire art collector Blue Falcon was funding the scooby doobies hence why they always had the best equipment, the yogi team had their acting jigs that let the dough flow, the really rottens equiptment is most likely made by them using pieces of scrap or old and patched up and about to fall apart. There's something admirable about these slimeballs scrappiness, despite being poorly funded and lacking any special abilities the other teams have, they still put up a good fight and find ways to win even if the methods arent the most honest and if they get themselves disqualified all the time. Its literally a girl and her pet pig from bumfuck nowhere USA, a birthday magician, an ex detective dog, a man with a fucking broom hat, a family and their 8 year old and their pet octopus, and some fatass cowboys against a group of furries and their kaiju best friend and a group of superheros, crimefighters,mystery solvers, a cyborg, an AI car and a fucking genie.

Ajusts glasses

I am an expert on the field of anything that concerns LaL and like @ben-the-hyena said,dick and muttley were originally supposed to lead it but due to copyright uncertainties they were replaced by mumbly, and the dread baron. HB later in production did find out that they did have the right to use dick and muttley but by that point it was too late.Mumbly prior to LaL already had his own show in which he was a heroic detective but he was repurposed as a bad guy for LaL (originally the mumbly show was supposed to be about muttley but once again, due to copyright uncertainties an expy was made). The dread baron was created originally just for LaL to replace DD but he was used again in yogi bear and the magical flight of the spruce goose, i suspect most likely because HB by this point did know that they could use dick and muttley for tv but not sure about tv films.

Characters such as the daltons already appeared in the huckleberry hound and i think the quick draw mcgraw show as well, design wise they were just tweaked a bit. The creepleys were based off the other creepleys that appeared on the flintstone show and like the daltons, had some design changes. Fondoo and magic rabbit are a bit sketchier, some sources say he was based off a johnny quest villain while another says they were based off a yogi bear antagonist in a book.

Daisy mayhem and sooey... i made a post about that

HB never had much prominent villains beyond Dick and Muttley, monsters of the week or supervillain of the week. Even tho the rottens weren't completely "original" since they technically were based off existing material,they never went very far beyond LaL which is a shame cuz they really do have potential.

Have you ever wondered why the Really Rottens were compromised mostly of original characters rather than villains from previous Hanna-Barbara shows? What villains would you have used?

We often talk about that with friends. It's probably because they lacked villains at all, none were as memorable as Dick and Muttley (who got replaced by expies, the irony) so they made them out of the blue instead of using former, meh oneshot villains. Laff-a-lympics sucks anyway lol

Okay. I will admit. I just LOVE how confident and secure these two are in their marriage. Mrs. Creepley flirts with a monster directly in front of her husband, and then implies that she is going to flirt with a vampire if they find one. And he is 120% onboard with this! And they both know that this is going on national television to boot! And then they just go off to do this cute shit!

I’m pretty certain that these two are just poly monster fuckers who are looking for a +1. How can I NOT love them!?

Creepy Family History: Hannah-Barbera (plus bonus)

Remember when I mentioned that the Hannah-Barbera studios liked a lot the Addams Family? Including them in their Scooby-Doo cartoon, and adapting them into two different cartoon series in the 70s and 90s?

Well, the studios obsession with the Addams dated back to a long time, before even the sitcom. Hannah-Barbera had created their own inspired-by/rip-off “creepy family”, clearly influenced by the cartoons of Chas Addams.

 They were the J. Evil Scientist family. First appearing in 1959 in an episode of Snooper and Blabber, they continued appearing in other Snooper and Blabber cartoons, and also appeared in 1961 in a Snagglepuss cartoon. Contrary to the Addams family, the Evil Scientist family was much smaller. Green-skinned, gothic evil (but affable) scientists living in a cobweb-filled old manor, the father (J. or Boris) was a small, ugly man ; the wife (Goonda) a tall and creepily elegant woman (smoking with a cigarette holder, wearing a black Morticia-like dress in Snopper and Blabber, a red one in Snagglepuss) ; and for a child there is only one progeny, the small and childish if not babyish Junior, a playful son in frequent need of babysitting. Creepy and spooky, the visitors of the Evil Scientists usually had to deal with the trouble caused by their strange experiments and toxic products (Snagglepuss for example had to fight a mouse turned giant by the concoctions brewed by the family). The Evil Scientists even got their own comic book series (a set of comic released for Halloween, and originally appearing in the Hannah-Barbera Bandwagon, from 63 to 66).

 Hannah-Barbera was known to rip-off other television series and cartoons, but they also ripped off themselves. Such as the case with the Evil Scientists family, that was so popular several variations of them reappeared throughout the studios history.

In “The Flintstones”, a reinvented version with slightly different designs of the Evil Scientists appeared as the creepy neighbors of the Flintstones. Called the Gruesomes (Weirdly the father, Creepella the mother, Goblin “Gobby” the son), they were a Stone Age version of the Evil Scientists, with a stronger influence from the Addams Family (for example the Gruesomes had an uncle, Uncle Ghastly, only appearing as a giant furry hand coming out of cave walls, and unusual pets, Occy the octopus and Schneider the giant spider).

The Gruesomes later reappeared, with slightly different designs and an entirely different name (The Creepleys) in “Laff-A-Lympics”. Their last appearance so to speak was in an episode of “A Pup Named Scooby-doo”, in the episode Snow Place Like Home. The gang goes to a snow resort haunted by an ice ghost, and the creepy owners of the station are basically slightly more realistic depictions of the Evil Scientists (though still unsettling, for example they keep their green skin). Spooky and suspicious-looking, this iteration of the family (here a couple named “Morganson” and childless) ultimately turns out to be good guys, whose business is being killed by the so-called “ice ghost”.

  While not an Hannah-Barbera production, I also wish to mention that the famous cartoon “The Real Ghostbusters” also did their own take on the creepy family, as an obvious reference and parody to both The Addams and The Munsters. In the episode “Loathe Thy Neighbor”, the Ghostbusters are called to the spooky and decaying manor of the Micawb family for strange hauntings – however as it turns out the Micawbs as just as creepy and weird as many of the spirits and ghosts the Ghostbusters had to face, and the “haunting” that plagues their house is the result of one of the “games” of their son, who accidentally released an eldritch Lovecraftian abomination in the cellar. The Micawbs take from the Addams (the parents, Bello and Lucretia, are parodies of Gomez and Morticia, they have a grotesque hunchbacked butler named Creegor, and a whole host of grotesque, freakish and monstrous relatives coming at the end for a family reunion) but are also based on The Munsters – their son Thaddeus is a young crazy scientist who built his own pet, the dog Patchwork, while their daughter Lydia is a perfectly normal-looking and even beautiful blond girl, just like Marilyn Munster).

OK WHAT THE FUCK

DEATHSTROKE?!YOGI BEAR?!THE MOTHERFUCKING CREEPLEYS AND THEIR EVIL OCTOPUS?!WHAT THE FUCK I NEED ANSWERS!?

[ben-the-hyena]

It used to bother me (not bother as in "UUUGH WHY" but rather "oh dang. Oh well. But how ?") That Mrs Creepley's color palette was so different between the Laff-a-lympics and the WR reboot

THEN IT OCCURED ME WITH ANOTHER TALL BIG NOSED GREN SKINNED EVIL WITCH CHARACTER, ONE I HAVE CREATED FOR THAT FANDOM

Ermine became green as a side effect of practicing dark magic, the more she did the more it spred to her skin

WELL Mrs Creepley is a witch but we hardly if not never see her cast any spell in the og show. So maybe she was barely starting as a witch and during all the decades between (40-30 years ?) she had mastered it enough to finally be powerful enough to be a fairytale witch, to be grin and to be probably immortal at last, like her hubby and son who probably supported her both if them (Mr Creepley probably thinking green really did suit her, between her Really Rottens gear and now that new look)

And being a goth with now a new identity, a new start (new powers, new lifespan, new status among monsters making her finally be seen as a witch and not a human for her family in law, her son probably left home for making his own adult life too now), she wanted to try new styles and new goth phases so she tries different kinds, notably neon dyes like pink. She'll never age anyway, baby !
