Not the usual on here

Yet how could I spot the news that Joe Barbera of Hanna-Barbera fame has died without putting up some kind of note. I mean, Tom and Jerry? Huckleberry Hound? Yogi Bear? Top Cat? The Jetsons?

Time to shed a little tear – even if nothing Hana-Barbera ever produced was even close in quality to the work of the mighty Tex Avery, they still managed to keep generation upon generation of children entertained with their slapstick and light comedy. We can even forgive them the Flintstones…
