  • Family Guy.

  • havent seen this in years and years and years forgot about them. wow...its funny what you remember

  • "the Herculoids" are now availalable on Amazon!

    I loved the theremin in that theme!

  • One of my all time favorites. I loved the dinosaur guy who shot exploding rocks out of his tusks.

  • Days when the bad guys in cartoons used to actually get killed with no mercy. Now they are read their rights and can get parole if jailed.

  • Great Cartoon it was

  • Cadê filme dos Herculoids feito pelo Spielberg??? Cadê? =D

  • I just rediscovered my childhood!

  • KROQ brought me here, thumbs up

  • best sound effects ever

  • BRING tears to my eyes. How I miss those quiet innocent days..Love the.music

  • I've never been so confused

  • Everything disintegrates. That's. Awesome.

  • now this is a real cartoon, back when cartoons were great and they made you want to get up on a saturday morning to watch them. Today's cartoon shows suck.

  • Man I loved this show when I was a kid!

  • great show Igoo was favourite

  • This has got to be the most frightening coincidence of my life.

    I was just watching an episode of Family Guy that had these guys on it, and I was wondering, what the heck are those guys making fun of.

    Now.... I just so HAPPEN to bump into this, and see the pillowy looking guy and the triceratops with firing horns.

    Freaky. Freaky. Freaky.

    Nobody probably cares, but wow. I could have never put the two together, but just walked into the answer by accident.

  • If this is the most frightening coincidence of your life, you must be very young. Hold on. Life gets much scarier.

    As far as the Hercs are concerned, the "triceratops with firing horns" is Tundro. The rock ape is Igoo. The dragon is Zok, and the "pillowy looking guy" is two guys, Gloop and Gleep. The people are Zandor, Tara and Dorno. So.

  • @43Aquaman

    No, not young at all. But, perhaps "frightening" is not the right word. as well as I should have said "one of" instead of "the most.". But it was very odd to ponder a question so obscure only to have it answered so directly a moment later by chance.

    It's like sitting in KFC wondering what the secret recipe actually is only to have a hand-scribbled note in Sander's own hand blow up on a worn piece of paper to get stuck on my windshield on the way home.

    It was beyond odd.

  • idk what they're on but i'll take 2

  • WTF

  • I originally with to the Warner Archives site debating whether or not to order The FBI, and when I saw the DVD box of the Herculoids instead, I almost did a jig.

  • The whait is over, you guys...

    On June 6, 2011, Warner Bros... FINALLY RELEASED THE HERCULOIDS: THE COMPLETE ORIGINAL SERIES ON DVD! IT WAS ABOUT F******IN TIME!

    It contains the original 36 10-minutes-long 1967 episodes of the series. Now, with this incredible collection finally available, planet Amzot will be saved... or not?. Zandor, Tara, Dorno, Zok, Igoo, Tundro, Gloop & Gleep are whaiting for you!

    ALL STRONG, ALL BRAVE, ALL HEROES... THEY ARE THE HERCULOIDS... ON DVD!

  • Nostalgia ! First time seeing this since 1970-71;Thanks for the flashback ! !

  • theses guys could hang with any marvel or dc comic book hero......i mean a damn dragon that shoots lasers is badass......

  • 0:27

    In what episode does this monster apear ?

  • @pokemonultramanfan episode 18- The Lost Dargyte!

    Me and my sister was looking at that one the other day.

  • feeling so nostalgic

  • family guy anyone?

  • Now THIS is a cartoon!

  • What's wrong with humanity? TV used to be high quality, These Cartoons made little boys believe they can do anything, and fight for justice in The American Way

  • Herculoids were the shit. No emo crap, weirdo aliens show up and they kick their ass.

  • I luv this show very much, this guy is better than chuck Norris

    

  • Slingshots solve everything.

  • Why is it that, when comes to retro cartoons and\or music, the top rated comments are often negative? Why compare Herculoids to Hannah Montana or Ray Charles to Justin Bieber? Can't you enjoy what your experiencing right now?

  • The position has been filled.

    Blblblblblblblblblbl-

    The position has been filled!

    Blblblblblblblblblblblblbl!

  • As a kid this was one of my favourite cartoons. Thanks...xxxx

  • wow wtf

  • This makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

    I love it!

  • man man i love that music. no talking  just great music and sound effects

  • KICKASS!! Gee, back then, EVEN cartoons had memorable, epic intros. Back when animators and studios gave a shit what the audience liked. They actually took the time to score pretty good music to go along with the awesome animation. Also, what 11 ASSHOLES disliked this?? Are you friggin shittin me? Oh well, 98% of the posters on here have GOOD taste.

  • This was one of my favorite cartoons! I grew up in the 90's but they played this on Boomerang and I watched it whenever it was on. Gleep and Gloop were awesome!

  • my sister wants this cartoon so bad on dvd

  • when I first saw the preview of this cartoon in the 60's and the music with it,I knew it was going to be exciting.

    I luv when the enemy is coming that the huculoids spring into action and you here their sounds ready to fight and defeat their enemies who threaten to destroy and rule their land and the universe.

    unbelievable powers they have.

    bb

  • I faithfully watched all the HB action toons when I was a kid. They look a little hokie now but as a kid growing up in the 60's, this was the greatest. If they did a CG remake of this with a decent script, it would be killer!

    That and the Jetsons. Danny DeVito as Mr. Spacely or nobody!

  • lol the into is just fucking explosions. Awesome.

  • SHIT MOTHER FUCKER THIS SHIT WAS THE FUCKING BOMB!!! GLEEP AND GLOP WERE MY FUCKING HOME BOYSSS!!!

  • Warner Brothers! GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS AND RELEASE THIS ON DVD NOW.

  • @Nagneto Its finally out on DVD. You can only get it through the warner bros archive site.

  • Better than most Of today's cartoons. I try to catch it when it's on boomerang.

    Maybe a CGI version would be nice.

  • OMFG! Hey guys, how do you think a Live-action sci-fi movie with special effects and CGA would be like? Do you think that a bad writing, bad cast selection and a bad direction could ruined a possible Herculoids movie of that kind like happened with other Hanna-Barbera cartoons like Scooby-Doo? Or would you rather like an animated movie recycling Alex Toth's character design, vocal Mike Road/Don Messick FX and the AMAZINGLY AWESOME HOYT CURTIN'S MUSIC THAT I LOVE SO MUCH? Tell me what you think!

  • i want the movie !! XD

  • The Herculoids was a favorite of mine -- loved it.

    But there's no call for deriding Family Guy; it's a brilliantly funny show.

    And I agree, Pokemon is fucking garbage that proves that Japanese minds must be completely alien from ours. Any mind that "gets" that freako Japanese shit must be disordered in a significant way.

  • This is when cartoons were fun to watch and creative, not to mention they still had decent animation as well. Hanna-Barbera, gotta love 'em!

  • Now, THIS is the REAL intro to the Herculoids... not the one that introduces the character's names. I love Zok, the flying dragon, he was always a KICKASS. lol

  • when is this going to be on DVD????

  • @sheilaboy44 : It's owned by Warner Bros. and Viacom. So kiss it goodbye.

  • saw this on family guy lol

  • @skatementality99 me 2 xD

  • just listen to all those retro old-skool sound effects. classic! they just don't make em like they used to!

  • I miss this show. Thanks for uploading them.

  • I loved this when I was a kid. I still love it.

  • what the hell is this??? it looks SO out of it!!! decades before pokamon, and thousands of times more bizarre!

    thank god for Family Guy and its US TV education.

    its also great watching FG to work out US commercials as well! Cool Aid guy?!

  • @Rincewind1978 It's an old adventure cartoon from decades ago. I'm 30 & I remeber watching reruns of this when I was a kid. The guy, his wife, son & with the help of the blobs, stone ape & green dragon like creature protect their planet from various baddies.

    This was fun to watch & they're still cool! Ashame some have a dormant if not dead imagination ;[

  • @Rincewind1978 The animation on Pokemon and Family Guy is garbage compared to this. Family guy's humor is so LAME, they have to reference old cartoons and shows just to get a reaction, from people like " Oh, I remember that". Also, Pokemon is like the worst Anime on television... my 2 yr old neice can draw better than that. lol

  • The first time I heard of it was from Family Guy. It looks cool though.

  • cartoons were better when the villians were KILLED EVERY EPISODE.

    Consequences, baby.

  • Yeah, totally agree, that's what we kids wanted to see, the brave heroes defeating their evil enemies. ¡and allmost all the herculoids's enemies died in the original episodes! ¡it's a pity that just were 36 violent episodes, the 11 new ones no were like the originals! ¡I'm Zandor, and if you want, I can give you some energy rocks xdxd!

  • Over/Under on a live action Herculoids movie: 5 years.

  • Man, lots of shows like this and Thundarr seemed to love merging barbarism with crazy super-science and robots. What a great cartoon.

  • the herculoids & wacky races are one of my all-time favorites!

  • I loved Igoo and those big ass fists of his.

  • these are when cartoons were good, not like now-a-days when cartoons have superheros in every show and the plots are all the same, love the old school toons

  • The best of the classics !!!

  • Man, this is the shit. These are the cartoons that would turn little boys into men. Now we get shit like Hannah Montana.

  • AGREED!!!!!!

  • ... HOW it would turn little boys into men? im not saying that hannah montana is better, i never watched HM even. It's just different.

    by the way, i love the herculoids :D

  • It was an exaggeration. Basically, the cartoons/shows of today can never compare to what we had back then. Cartoons weren't afraid to do things that are considered offending now.

  • @sexahchocokitten : HAHAHAHHAAHHA. Funny and true.

  • Wow I totally forgot how many insane explosions old cartoons had xD

    I loved the Herculoids when I was a kid

  • 0:15 looks like a Boss from Yoshi's Island!

  • This cartoon and Jonny Quest were the cartoons we waited for every Saturday.

  • i thinks gloop and gleep are cute little guys...

  • These cartoons made kids into tough guys...

  • one of my all time favorites!

  • "...Gloop & Gleep the formless-fearless wonders..."

  • There was also a Hercules cartoon from the early 1960s I think that my brother and I saw in reruns in the 1980s and there was a Centaur character named Newton.

  • YESSSS!!!! The Herculoids rock! Pure Dadaismo!!!!!

  • This classic cartoon needs a live action movie,This show rocks!!!!!

  • I have said that for years!

  • I agree the story line is already set. The movie has to be doen.

  • @Surfanimal1990s Yeah like Jonny Quest!

  • with today's technology, this cartoon needs a movie.

  • Buit what are Gloop and Gleep made out of?!

  • Protoplasm.

  • I miss when cartoon network had shows like this. F*ck billy and mandy.

  • boomerang

  • love it

  • Mrs. Herculoid was SO HOT!!!!!

  • Mrs. Herculoid was SO HOT!!!!!

  • I THOUGHT SO TOO (b)^_^)

  • And so do I! the prety and beautiful Tara was very hot indeed, but... she's married! dam it!

  • @tinkles30 It's Tarah... and yes, she is HOT. Did you notice, how FLAT a stomach, she has... when she shoots that red flying monster with the slingshot? That is so SEXY, when a woman has a flat tummy. ;)

  • I thought that's what happened if you picked up something too heavy. Or what your Mom said came along with your baby brother.

  • Herculoids Pwn!!!

  • Probably my favorite cartoon...looking back today, the only negative is that the episodes were so short...

  • Zok , Igoo, Tundro and of course...

    Gloop & Gleep !!!

  • Herculoids 4 Life, baby!!! Capcom-or Squaresoft-Why haven't you made a game about this???

  • This show deserves a game, a TV series, a movie...everything...love the music also.

  • LOL, you know, that would kick ass.

  • Alex Toth was great guys!

  • One of the best HB cartoons, besides Shazzan, Mighty Mightor and Frankenstein Jr. & The Impossibles!

  • Lol! Those old school sound fx take me back!

  • Herculoids kick ass!

  • They made fun of this on Family Guy. lol

  • I was really little when this was out. I've been looking for it for 10 or more years. Awesome! My husband gave me a funny look when he watched it lol...

  • Shoot him with an energy rock if he gives you any lip!

  • I used to love this cartoon.

  • woooow ! brought me back to when i was in 3rd grade !!! that was sooo suuureal ! thanks!!!

  • great!

  • I think Ookla the Mok would have something to say about this getting made into a live action movie.

  • buttfreckle on Etsy has Gloop and Gleep dolls

  • If this gets made into a live action movie, i wouldn't be at all suprised!

  • zok owns i love that dragon

  • dude looks like he-man

  • You can get this at Imissmytvshow*com now

  • OMG!!! I miss that show it needs to come on boomerang

  • A CLASSIC CARTOON!!!

  • There are no good ideas for movies out there right now and lately they have been reaching back in the 60s and 70s for movies. I am pretty sure if someone thinks of this cartoon, they would make a movie out of it.

  • Let's just hope if they do make a movie of the Herculoids, they don't ruin it like they did Speed Racer.

  • That's a great idea!But I would go for a cartoon(movie) with the original characters but this time done with computer animation.

  • Zok was the greatest. I loved Zok.

  • herculoid rock freaking ass

  • OMG!!!

    I'd totally forgotten about this show!!! I loved it!

  • Gloop and Gleep were my favorites.

  • Gloop, Gleep and Igoo were the schiznick!

  • I loved this show and it reminds me of another show that I hope somebody here can name, for I have forgotten. The main character was a Tarzan kind of guy who had a club as his weapon, possibly wore some kind of mask and wore a set of horns... the cartoon was set in the jungles and was very similar to The Herculoids. I hope somebody can remember... it's killing me

  • Mightor

  • that wasn't Mighty Mightor? another Alex Toth cration: he had a club that transformed him into a superhero, and he defended his billaje from a lot of enemies. His really identitie was the young man Tor, who was in love with Sheera, it was produced in the same year than the herculoids

  • I agree that a big screen movie of The Herculoids would be great! Also, a movie of Thundarr the barbarian, too! Zok was my fave from the Herculoids.  Princess Ariel was my fave from Thundarr.

  • Zok was the coolest!

  • i love this cartoon aww memories

  • I MISS THIS OLD SHOW!!!

  • where can i find the 80's version

  • I used to take 2 vicodin and watch this every saturday morning at 2AM as reward for a completed work week...... herculoids rule!

  • The best cartoon ever!!!! where can I buy the series? please let me know.  Thanks. Marcos

  • i also watch this on CN asia back in 1996.

  • it was better on family guy

  • They should make this into a live action movie!

  • I have been saying that for years, and with the CG tech we have today, it's actually possible now! I agree, my friend! A live action Herculoids movie! It would have to be better than "Masters of the Universe" turned out!

  • Great idea...any ideas as to who would play the roles of the family?

  • Zandor, Tara, and Dorno would be unknowns, but the villain would have to have a little star power. Reguardless, the stars of the movie should be the CGI creatures anyway!

  • Watching this I realized that all the sound effects were the same exact ones on the old Johnny Quest lol. Good ol' cheap Hannah Barbera.

  • zandor must have some serious back problems slinging himself on those vines, who does he think he is captain america. Still, this show remains in our hearts so much because of those incredible creatures. I always favored Tandor, myself then Igoo. And stop the Gloop and Gleep bashing, folks!

  • Those multit purpose guys Geep and Gloop were my favorites. Growing up on this stuff was a pleasure they just don't make them like they used to. I tried to get my sun to watch one episode he could not handle it. Darn teenagers

  • no,now we have twenty two hours of japan shit like poke mon.Cartoons based on toys and video games.

  • This was among my favourite cartoons. Althou I couldn't remember their names, I always liked the blob guys the most. What a blast.

  • Zandor, Tara, and their son Dorno. Igoo, the rock ape, Tundro, the ten legged triceratops, Zok, the laser firing dragon, and Gloop and Gleep, the blob thingies! Maybe that brings back some memories!

    Gosh I loved the music soundtrack to this show!

  • GET ALL THE OLD ONES ON DVD imissmytvshow DOT COM

  • Zok ,Tandro,and Igoo brought that pain. Why the hell gloop and gleeep was there

  • I want the Herculoids on DVD! An all time favorite late-60's superheroes cartoon of mine and so far ahead of it's time.

  • I have them ALL,contact ruffrobb@yahoo,com

  • I meant to say I have them all on DVD,contact Ruffrobb at yahoo dot com

  • this kinda sucks,no efence

  • I love the Herculoids! Why can't we have the good old classics like these back?!

  • loved the video, but can someone please hrlp me see or here young samson and goliath. It was a great show.

  • Im lookin for the young Samson and Goliath i have a few eposoids on tape thats it about 6 of them..

  • zok is the best he kick's ass and takes names

  • He was cool! The Stone gorilla Igoo was WICKED! He reminded of the Hulk. I noticed all the aminals had attitude when they fought law of jungle I guess. Herculoids Rule!

  • That theme brings back the excitement of 60's Saturday morning TV!

  • This is the first overture from "The Herculoids" (created by Alex Toth and produced by Hanna-Barbera in 1967), which brings the original theme song, composed and conducted by Ted Nichols.

  • this was the intro I saw as a kid back in the 60's

  • thanks thanks shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit these were the cartoons man not that bullshit cn sends now if cn started sending the good old cartoons i'd be happy like shit damn i miss those days

  • Yes, the music is quite memorable. It's certainly a challenge to determine the source of that underlining "chord". It "seems" as though a human vocalist has been augmented to sound like a Therimen, the hands-free electronic instrument made famous by "The Day the Earth Stood Still" (and later cliched by other 50s sci-fi flicks).

  • Redfern, Thank's for bringing up the same thing I have been vexxed about for years! I too can appreciate a great soundtrack, and I'd love to hear H/B's music to all their "Action/Adventure" shows from the 60's released on CD. Not just the themes! And of course, the therimen was also used in the theme to "Lost in Space", as well! Thank's, W.Duffy Woodruff

  • would also be cool to hear this music interpreted by folks like Todd Rundgren, Danny Elfman, et al....i just wonder if the masters to those recording sessions of the original music even exist(for some reason, HB didn't usually keep hold of stuff like that)...

  • Awesome back when cartoons were real!!! Forget "Cartoon Cartoons" BAH

  • This is the intro that I remember

  • Love Zok, he's Badass.

  • Zok Rocks!

  • i wish there were episodes of this on here. some guy put up all the old space ghost episodes

  • LOVE THAT MUSIC. SO COOL AND CREEPY.
