comment |
Exit Stage Left!: The Snagglepuss Chronicles is a six-issue miniseries starring the classic Hanna-Barbera character Snagglepuss. It was written by Mark Russell and is part of the Hanna-Barbera Beyond series.In 1953, as America looks for ways to outmaneuver the Soviet Union, the House Un-American Activities Committee seeks to rid the entertainment industry of those whose work they deem disruptive to public morals. Among their targets is Snagglepuss, creator of popular but controversial plays like The Heart is a Kennel of Thieves. When the HUAC's new head finds evidence that Snagglepuss is gay, he must figure out how to outwit them before he ends up on the blacklist. |

No Celebrities Were Harmed: Snagglepuss is rather obviously based on playwright Tennessee Williams. Huckleberry Hound is based on William Faulkner. Gigi Allen is a gender-swapped version of Roy Cohn complete with being in the closet. |

Darker and Edgier: A given for a Hanna-Barbera Beyond production. While the original Snagglepuss and Huckleberry Hound cartoons were lighthearted Zany Cartoons for the time, Exit Stage Left grounds them in the grim reality of McCarthy-era America, with themes of racism, homophobia, corrupt politics and Red Scare paranoia looming over the whole thing. |

Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist: Gigi tries to present her actions as an effort to give America a much-needed leg up over the communist bloc, but Snagglepuss sees right through her and bluntly points out that what she really wants is to control what people say and do. It's later revealed that her hounding of suspected homosexuals is an attempt to distract from her lesbianism. |

Bittersweet Ending: Snagglepuss does his best to keep all his loved ones out of harm's way, but so much still goes wrong and his life as a playwright is over. Things are looking up at the end though: the HUAC is dissolved, and Snag finds a promising new career (see Animated Actors), reconciles with Quickdraw, gets closure through meeting Huckleberry Jr, and his Cuban lover initiates a reunion. |

She tries to apologize over what happened with Huck, but Snagglepuss is having none of it. |

Transparent Closet |
| Exit Stage Left: The Snagglepuss Chronicles (Comic Book) / int_460ffa29 |
comment |
Transparent Closet: Huckleberry Hound is very, very bad at trying to keeping himself in the closet. Snagglepuss isn't much better at acting straight, but he's got a better beard, because Lila is aware of the situation, and it seems Huck's wife doesn't. Discussed when Arthur Miller enlists Snagglepuss' aid in helping hide his affair with Marylin Monroe from her then-husband, Joe DiMaggio. It's noted (and turns out to be correct) that DiMaggio wouldn't assume Snagglepuss was conducting an affair with Monroe, because Joe knows Snagglepuss is a "sugarfoot" (period slang for a closeted gay man) - it's apparently a pretty open secret. |

Paper-Thin Disguise: The "Snaggletooth" persona isn't expected to fool the Government. The plan is for Snagglepuss to use the "disguise" until the Government either unmasks him so the cartoon makers will have plausible deniability, or ignores the matter long enough to convince the cartoon makers Snagglepuss may appear on the cartoons as himself. |

Five years later, he admits to Snagglepuss, too senile to recognize his own son, that he actually misses his son and that he's afraid that all he ever did was hurt his son in his efforts in raising him. |

Deadpan Snarker: Snagglepuss, in spades. The very first scene has him snarking away at the HUAC. |

My Greatest Second Chance: Peter Potamus, near the end of the series, describes his current directing job on Snagglepuss' latest play as one, after the previously mentioned fire incident caused him to effectively be blacklisted by any rational theater owner. |

Hypocritical Humor: Nixon accuses Communism as copying innovations without creating anything new, only to whisper under his breath to one of his assistants that they desperately need the rotisserie oven Khrushchev shows off in the Moscow Trade Fair for themselves. |

Decoy Backstory |
| Exit Stage Left: The Snagglepuss Chronicles (Comic Book) / int_c9946987 |
comment |
Decoy Backstory: Huckleberry Hound is presented as a gay, depressive author, which is considerably different from how he's usually presented in cartoons, where he's usually a plucky everyman who comes out on top. The ending of the series reveals that this is actually the father of the more commonly-known Huckleberry Hound, who adopted his dad's name to honor him after he died. |

Bluff Worked Too Well |
| Exit Stage Left: The Snagglepuss Chronicles (Comic Book) / int_cc7e0fac |
comment |
Bluff Worked Too Well: Gigi Allen threatens to out the married Huckleberry Hound and ruin his career and his family unless Snagglepuss names some other homosexuals and/or Communists to throw under the bus. This plan goes horribly awry when Huckleberry kills himself, and an enraged Snagglepuss chooses to get blacklisted rather than help the people who ruined his best friend, which also effectively ends Allen's career, as her investigation hinged on Snagglepuss' cooperation. |

Cassandra Truth: In a brief extra prior to the miniseries' events, Snagglepuss has a brief chat with Augie Doggie about how once the theater he was acting at began burning. He tried alerting the director, Peter Potamus... who promptly beat feet. Desperate, he ran into stage and screamed at the audience that there was a fire. Everyone laughed at him. He barely managed to escape and many people died in the fire. He uses the story as An Aesop to Augie as to why he's willingly confronting the HUAC - if there's danger, you have to warn people, even if they are going to try to escape it or ignore it altogether. |

comment |
Living Is More than Surviving: During his hearings, Gigi tries to persuade Snagglepuss by claiming sacrificing careers of few people and censoring their works is a small price for stopping the threat of Soviets destroying America with nukes. He is having none of it. |

Karmic Jackpot: Snagglepuss, realizing that he hasn't been as emotionally attentive to his beard or his lover as he should be, decides to have a nice dinner with the both of them and start working on their issues. This allows him to avoid getting caught in the raid that Huckleberry Hound winds up arrested in and thereafter leads him to killing himself and is a big part of why he's able to live more or less freely when all is said and done. |
