All 52 Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har Har cartoons are on two DVD discs. Like Laurel and Hardy, these two characters are always down on their luck, struggling to survive incompetently in a series of misadventures. Lippy is the optimist, always the instigator of their actions, while Hardy, unlike the characteristics of his hyena breed, doesn't laugh and is the complete antithesis of his pal.... A born pessimist. He knows that every one of Lippy's schemes will end in failure, and every cartoon he is heard to say: "Oh dear. Oh my!" When I ask people what favourite Hanna and Barbera cartoons they like, it's usually The Flintstones, Scooby Doo, Top Cat, Yogi, The Jetsons, etc... These are good shows, but no one yet has mentioned Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har Har. This is a shame, and they should be household names with people doing impressions of the paranoid non-laughing hyena as they struggle through the day to day cruel banalities of existence.
Oh dear oh my.... I just know that no one is going to like this review.......
