# Laff-A-Lympics

Laff-A-Lympics is an American animated comedy television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. The series premiered as part of the Saturday-morning cartoon program block Scooby's All-Star Laff-A-Lympics, which consists of 24 episodes, on ABC on September 10, 1977. The show is a spoof of the Olympics and the ABC primetime series Battle of the Network Stars, which debuted one year earlier. It featured 45 Hanna-Barbera characters organized into teams (the Scooby Doobies, the Yogi Yahooeys, and the Really Rottens) which competed each week for gold, silver, and bronze medals. In each episode, the Really Rottens would try in each event to cheat only to get caught by Snagglepuss each time. One season of 16 episodes was produced in 1977–78, and eight new episodes combined with reruns for the 1978–79 season as Scooby's All-Stars. Unlike most cartoon series produced by Hanna-Barbera in the 1970s, Laff-A-Lympics did not contain a laugh track. Scooby’s Laff-a-Lympics was originally owned by Taft Broadcasting; Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution currently owns the series through its two in-name-only units, Warner Bros. Family Entertainment and Turner Entertainment.
The "all-star" cast was mostly made up of characters from other Hanna-Barbera series. The "Scooby Doobies" included characters from Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels, Speed Buggy and Dynomutt, Dog Wonder; the "Yogi Yahooeys" had characters from The Yogi Bear Show, The Huckleberry Hound Show and The Quick Draw McGraw Show. The only original characters were some members of the Really Rottens.
In 1978, Hanna-Barbera produced another "all-star" show with a similar theme, titled Yogi's Space Race.

## Format

The sporting competitions in which the characters are called upon to compete are often comical or offbeat versions of Olympic sports, races, or scavenger hunts. Each segment is set in a different location around the world.
Episodes are presented in a format similar to an Olympic television broadcast, with an unseen announcer. Hosting duties and commentary are provided by Snagglepuss and Mildew Wolf (from It's the Wolf! segments of Cattanooga Cats voiced by John Stephenson impersonating Paul Lynde). Snagglepuss and Mildew wear animated versions of the contemporary yellow jackets of ABC Sports announcers. Other Hanna-Barbera characters such as Fred Flintstone, Barney Rubble, Jabberjaw and Peter Potamus made appearances as guest announcers and judges. Other non-competing characters include parents of contestants (interviewed by Mildew before the events) and various monsters and creatures that serve as antagonists during the events.
The "good guy" teams, consisting of the Yogi Yahooeys and the Scooby Doobies, are cooperative and loyal. The Really Rottens, however, always cheat. Typically, the Really Rottens would be poised to win before making a fatal error at the last moment, allowing one of the other two teams to end up on top. Occasionally, though, the Rottens' cheating was not actually against the rules, resulting in their winning (overall, the Scooby team dominated, winning 14 times, against seven victories for the Yahooies, two for the Rottens, and a three-way-tie in the final episode).
Only one complete season of Laff-A-Lympics episodes was produced, with eight new episodes combined with reruns for the second season of Scooby's All Star Laff-A-Lympics (billed as Scooby's All-Stars). When it premiered in the fall of 1977, the series consisted of several segments, including "Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels" (which led the two-hour program and later was spun off into its own half-hour show), "The Scooby-Doo Show" and "Dynomutt, Dog Wonder" (both of which featured a small number of newly produced segments alongside repeated segments from earlier seasons) and the "Laff-A-Lympics" segments themselves. The show resurfaced in 1980 as a half-hour series on its own (without the "Captain Caveman", "Scooby-Doo" and "Dynomutt" cartoons) simply titled Laff-A-Lympics and was later rerun on ABC in 1986. In later years, it has been frequently rerun on USA Cartoon Express, Cartoon Network and Boomerang, often during the time periods when the Summer and Winter Olympics were held (until 2014). It most recently aired on Boomerang in September 2023.

## Teams
### The Scooby Doobies

This team drew mainly from the 1970s Hanna-Barbera cartoons, particularly the "mystery-solving" series derived from Scooby-Doo, whose titular character served as team captain.
The early production art for the series showed Jeannie from the Jeannie TV cartoon show, as well as Melody, Alexander, Alexandra, and Sebastian the Cat, all from Josie and the Pussycats, as members of the Scooby Doobies. However, legal problems with Columbia Pictures Television, Screen Gems' successor, as well as Archie Comics, prevented them from appearing in the series. Although Hanna-Barbera happened to have the ownership of Jeannie character Babu, Columbia had all rights to Jeannie's image, including her cartoon form at the time. Similarly, Archie Comics held the rights to the Josie characters.
As a result of all these issues, in the actual series, Babu appeared all by himself as a member of the Scooby Doobies, while Jeannie was replaced by Hong Kong Phooey and the Josie characters were replaced by characters from Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels.
Among the members of the Scooby Doobies are:
| Name | Note |
| Scooby-Doo | Team captain; Character from Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, The New Scooby-Doo Movies and The Scooby-Doo Show |
| Shaggy Rogers | Character from Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, The New Scooby-Doo Movies and The Scooby-Doo Show |
| Scooby-Dum | Character from The Scooby-Doo Show |
| Dynomutt | Character from Dynomutt, Dog Wonder |
| The Blue Falcon | Character from Dynomutt, Dog Wonder |
| Captain Caveman | Character from Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels |
| Brenda Chance | Character from Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels |
| Taffy Dare | Character from Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels |
| Dee Dee Skyes | Character from Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels |
| Speed Buggy | Character from Speed Buggy |
| Tinker | Character from Speed Buggy |
| Babu | Character from Jeannie |
| Hong Kong Phooey | Character from Hong Kong Phooey |

### The Yogi Yahooeys

This team drew mainly from the 1950s and 1960s Hanna-Barbera cartoons and was the only team of characters made up completely of anthropomorphic animals. Grape Ape was the only post-1962 character in the line-up.
Among the members of the Yogi Yahooeys are:
| Name | Note |
| Yogi Bear | Team captain; Character from The Huckleberry Hound Show and The Yogi Bear Show |
| Boo-Boo Bear | Character from The Huckleberry Hound Show and The Yogi Bear Show |
| Cindy Bear | Character from The Yogi Bear Show |
| Yakky Doodle | Character from The Yogi Bear Show |
| Huckleberry Hound | Character from The Huckleberry Hound Show |
| Pixie | Character from The Huckleberry Hound Show |
| Dixie | Character from The Huckleberry Hound Show |
| Mr. Jinks | Character from The Huckleberry Hound Show |
| Hokey Wolf | Character from The Huckleberry Hound Show |
| Quick Draw McGraw | Character from The Quick Draw McGraw Show |
| Snooper | Character from The Quick Draw McGraw Show |
| Blabber | Character from The Quick Draw McGraw Show |
| Augie Doggie | Character from The Quick Draw McGraw Show |
| Doggie Daddy | Character from The Quick Draw McGraw Show |
| Wally Gator | Character from The Hanna-Barbera New Cartoon Series |
| Grape Ape | Character from The Great Grape Ape Show |

### The Really Rottens

This team was composed of villainous characters that frequently cheated by either giving themselves an unfair advantage in a contest or sabotaging the other teams, often getting themselves penalized for such conducts. With the exception of Mumbly and the Dalton Brothers, all of the team members were original characters.
Originally, Muttley and Dick Dastardly were planned as the leaders of the Really Rottens; however, they could not appear as those characters were co-owned by Heatter-Quigley Productions. In their place, Hanna-Barbera used the existing character Mumbly and created the new character Dread Baron. Prior to Laff-A-Lympics, on his original show, Mumbly was a heroic detective rather than a villain. Following the character's revision as the villainous team leader, he remained a villain in Yogi Bear and the Magical Flight of the Spruce Goose, which was also Dread Baron's only appearance outside of Laff-A-Lympics.
The Dalton Brothers appeared in 1950s and 1960s shorts (including the 1958 short Sheriff Huckleberry Hound, which featured appearances by Dinky, Dirty, and Dastardly Dalton, as well as their other brothers Dangerous, Detestable, Desperate, and Despicable). However, they were given new character designs for the Laff-A-Lympics series. After Laff-A-Lympics, Dinky reappeared in The Good, the Bad, and Huckleberry Hound with brothers Stinky (who bore a resemblance to the Laff-A-Lympics design of Dastardly Dalton), Finky, and Pinky.
Among the members of the Really Rottens are:
| Name | Note |
| Mumbly | Team captain; Character from The Mumbly Cartoon Show; Bears a strong resemblance to the Wacky Races character Muttley; Mumbly's retcon from good detective (as depicted in his preceding cartoon show) to villain was never addressed in Laff-a-Lympics |
| Dread Baron | Original character; Bears a strong resemblance to Dick Dastardly (who is revealed to be his twin brother in the comic book Laff-A-Lympics #13) and the Red Max, both from Wacky Races |
| Dinky Dalton | Character from The Quick Draw McGraw Show and The Huckleberry Hound Show; Towering villainous cowboy brother whose Stetson obscures his eyes |
| Dirty Dalton | Character from The Quick Draw McGraw Show and The Huckleberry Hound Show; Short villainous cowboy brother with mustache |
| Dastardly Dalton | Character from The Quick Draw McGraw Show and The Huckleberry Hound Show; Short villainous cowboy brother with blond hair |
| Mr. Creepley | Original character; Patriarch of villainous monster family based on The Gruesomes and Mr. & Mrs. J. Evil Scientist; His voice resembles that of Peter Lorre |
| Mrs. Creepley | Original character; Matriarch of villainous monster family based on The Gruesomes and Mr. & Mrs. J. Evil Scientist |
| Junior Creepley | Original character; Child of villainous monster family based on The Gruesomes and Mr. & Mrs. J. Evil Scientist |
| Orful Octopus | Original character; Pet of the Creepleys; Villainous hybrid version of Squiddly Diddly and Occy the Octopus (pet of The Gruesomes) |
| The Great Fondoo | Original character; Evil magician whose tricks and spells hardly ever work as intended, often backfiring on his part; Bears a resemblance to Abner K. Dabra from the 1963 book Yogi Bear and the Cranky Magician |
| Magic Rabbit | Original character; Pet rabbit of the Great Fondoo whose only speaking line is "Brak"; Bears a resemblance to the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland or What's a Nice Kid like You Doing in a Place like This? |
| Daisy Mayhem | Original character; Mean-spirited hillbilly with split ends in her hair; Though her name is similar to Li'l Abner character "Daisy Mae", she bears a much stronger resemblance to a lesser-known supporting character from that same comic strip: Moonbeam McSwine |
| Sooey | Original character; Daisy Mayhem's eyepatch-wearing pet pig |

Episodes 5–8 were on a second DVD titled Scooby's All-Star Laff-A-Lympics Volume 2, released the same day by Target and by other stores on October 19, 2010. A two-disc DVD set entitled Scooby-Doo! Laff-A-Lympics: Spooky Games was released on July 17, 2012. The set contains an all-new Scooby Doo special, "Spooky Games", plus 12 episodes of Laff-a-Lympics – including episodes 9–16, which complete the first season, plus four earlier first-season episodes which appear on Volume 1 and 2.

Dread Baron and Mumbly appear in Yogi Bear and the Magical Flight of the Spruce Goose. While Don Messick reprised Mumbly, Dread Baron was voiced by Paul Winchell.
Dinky Dalton appears in the Yogi's Treasure Hunt episode "The Return of El Kabong", voiced by Stacy Keach, Sr. He is shown to be with his brothers Desperate Dalton and Despicable Dalton.
Dinky Dalton appears in The Good, the Bad, and Huckleberry Hound, voiced by Allan Melvin. As mentioned above, he has brothers named Finky Dalton (voiced by Pat Fraley), Pinky Dalton (voiced by Charlie Adler), and Stinky Dalton (voiced by Michael Bell).

The Dread Baron appears in Jellystone!. He was seen in "Jailcation" where he was apprehended by the Jellystone Police Department and became an inmate at Santo Relaxo. The majority of the Really Rottens appeared in the season 3 episode "LAFF Games" with Daisy Mayhem voiced by Georgie Kidder, Dinky Dalton voiced by Dwight Schultz, Orful Octopus voiced by Bernardo de Paula, and Magic Rabbit voiced by Niccole Thurman.

## Cultural references

* Laff-A-Lympics was parodied in the Robot Chicken episode "Ban on the Fun". In a segment that parodies Laff-A-Lympics in the style of the 1972 Munich massacre, the Yogi Yahooeys are taken hostage and murdered by the Really Rottens. In retaliation, the Scooby Doobies alongside Snooper and Blabber arm themselves and kill the Really Rottens. The sketch itself lampoons the theatrical trailer for Steven Spielberg's 2005 film Munich, based on actual events. The sketch featured Blue Falcon, Boo-Boo Bear, Captain Caveman, Daisy Mayhem, Dinky and Dirty Dalton, Doggie Daddy, Dread Baron, Dynomutt, The Great Fondoo, Hong Kong Phooey, Huckleberry Hound, Mumbly, Quick Draw McGraw (as El Kabong), Snagglepuss, Scooby-Doo, Scooby-Dum, Scrappy-Doo (who was never a member of the Scooby Doobies), Shaggy Rogers, Snooper and Blabber, Wally Gator, and Yogi Bear.
* The series was also parodied in the Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law episode "Grape Juiced" with Grape Ape voiced by John Michael Higgins and Beegle Beagle voiced by Doug Preis. In that episode, Grape Ape is accused of using steroids at the recent Laff-A-Lympics event. Yakky Doodle, Grape Ape's teammate from the Yogi Yahooeys, also makes a cameo appearance as a witness during Grape Ape's trial. The Magic Rabbit makes a cameo in the episode "SPF" as a victim of CyberSquatting.
* The Really Rottens (consisting of Mumbly, Daisy Mayhem, Mr. Creepley, Orful Octopus, and the Dalton Brothers) made a cameo appearance in The Cleveland Show episode "Ship'rect". In the episode, Mumbly is the captain of a boat crewed by the Really Rottens in a Floaterboat Race.
