  • By 1972, Hanna-Barbera was producing so MANY half-hour shows for all three networks' Saturday morning schedules, they had to "outsource" most of the staff on "WAIT 'TILL YOUR FATHER GETS HOME" (with a few studio veterans, including Art Davis and Iw(a)o Takamoto, supervising; Harvey Bullock and Ray Allen were writers, not animators; they mostly supervised the stories and soundtracks).

  • The BBC used to transmit this in the 1970's direct from film,because i seem to remember the picture jumping and they took it off with a caption on the screen 'there has been a breakdown,normal service will resume shortly'!

  • like the theme song wow 1972 never knew tom did a cartoon

  • Judging by the names in the credits the show was animated in Australia.

  • Hi,

    Thanks for the comment . As as I know this was made in America as all the Hanna Barbara shows were.

  • @philo1978 It's not uncommon for American studios to outsource animation to foreign companies for cheaper labor. Hanna-Barbera outsourced alot of its shows overseas, mostly to Taiwan and Australia.

    Today most TV cartoons produced in America (such as Simpsons, Family Guy) are animated in Korea.

    Hi again,

    I knew that happened today but didn't realise they did that back in the early 70's as well.

    Thanks for letting me know.

  • @bakertoons

    A lot of those guys in the opening credits were ex WB staffers and or animators with H-B from their early TV or back in their Tom and Jerry days
