Edit, 7/9/23: The video was deleted. In its place is a standard intro:
If Lippy & Hardy's voices are familiar to some, well, they are. Butler would recycle Lippy's voice into Peter Potamus just two years later. As for Hardy, Mel Blanc transferred his vocal mannerisms into Bedrock's teen harbinger of doom, Schleprock, on Pebbles & Bamm-Bamm.
As far as being "the most laughable, lovable pair by far", however, Lippy & Hardy actually weren't, if you went by ratings, since the series was cancelled after 1 season's worth of episodes. H-B tried to posit them as a funny animal version of Abbott & Costello, but it just didn't click with audiences. Of course, as we've previously documented, H-B would eventually obtain a license to do an animated Abbott & Costello series just a few years later.
Rating: B.
