Cast: Daws Butler, Mel Blanc (VOICES)

Release Date: December 16, 2025

A Review By: Kevin Lovell

Disc Rating: 7/10

Synopsis:

Talk about odd couples…The zippy, happy-go-lucky Lippy the Lion (voiced by Daws Butler) is always looking for action. Hardy Har Har (voiced by Mel Blanc) is a hangdog, hapless hyena who never laughs. So, naturally the pair are inseparable. Constantly on the lookout for the next big score, the always-optimistic Lippy leads a skeptical Hardy into a multitude of misadventures despite Hardy’s “worry-wartin.” Lippy’s all sunny side up, while Hardy’s trademark refrain of “oh dear, oh my” provides the comic counterpoint to all their extraordinary exploits, which travel from the Wild West and deserted isles to country clubs and racetracks. No matter the time or place, you can count on these two to maneuver into desperate danger each and every time! This collection contains all 52 of Hanna-Barbera’s laugh-filled exploits featuring Lippy and Hardy, all newly remastered from the best available film elements for this Blu-ray collection.

Cast: Daws Butler, Don Messick (VOICES)

Release Date: December 16, 2025

A Review By: Kevin Lovell

Disc Rating: 7/10

Synopsis:

“There’s no place like home” is an adage that breezy, affable Wally Gator (voiced by Daws Butler) needs to learn again and again. A true people-person alligator, Wally is driven by his excessive curiosity and his bon vivant inclinations to seek out new experiences beyond the city zoo where he hangs his porkpie hat. Donning a variety of hilarious disguises, Wally escapes the care of dedicated zookeeper Twiddle (voiced by Don Messick) only to end up crying “Oh, fuddle-dee-doo!” as he lands himself in a series of ever more ridiculous (and dangerous!) jams! Whether he’s confused with a dragon by a clan of medievalist monster fighters, almost becoming the final ingredient in a witch’s magic potion or becoming a stunt gator in Hollywood action pictures, Wally is always relieved when he finally makes his way back to Twiddle and the zoo..only to saunter off the very next day! This collection contains all 52 of Hanna-Barbera’s beloved Wally Gator animation adventures, all newly remastered from the best available film elements for this Blu-ray collection.
