Yogi's Space Race

Yogi's Space Race was a Saturday Morning Cartoon produced in 1978 by Hanna-Barbera for NBC. It was essentially an update of the same studio's Wacky Races, with Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound and Jabberjaw among the competitors.

The show had three supporting segments: Galaxy Goof-Ups, The Buford Files and The Galloping Ghost.

Tropes used in Yogi's Space Race include:

• The Bad Guy Wins: Phantom Phink won most of the races, either as himself or as Captain Good.
• Batman Can Breathe in Space: So can women, bears, dogs, ducks and even sharks.
• The Cameo: Quick Draw McGraw and Jana of the Jungle have made appearances.
• Cassandra Truth: In one episode, the space race's official computer revealed that Captain Good and Phantom Phink are one and the same but nobody believed. At least Good/Phink had to rescue the others to protect the masquerade.
• Media Research Failure: In one full-color print ad, Scarebear was shown with Mumbly's color scheme: light blue fur and yellow clothing.
• Disney Acid Sequence: The infamous disco freak-out numbers in Galaxy Goof-Ups.
• Phantom Phink Stops to Cheat
• Peacock Girl: The lead singer/dancer in the aforementioned disco sequences.
• Recycled in Space: Literally so.
• Wacky Racing
