The Banana Splits Adventure Hour was a Saturday morning series from Hanna-Barbera shown on NBC in the late 1960s. Live actors in full-body costumes portrayed Fleegle the dog (voiced by Paul Winchell), Drooper the lion (voiced by Allan Melvin), Bingo the gorilla (voiced by Daws Butler) and Snorky the elephant, who didn't talk. Sid and Marty Krofft Productions designed the Banana Splits' character costumes.The foursome did comedy sketches, performed songs and introduced the following action segments: Arabian Knights: A Five-Man Band of heroes fought evil in pre-Islamic Arabia. The Three Musketeers: These short adventures were adapted from the book by Alexandre Dumas père. Micro-Ventures: A scientist and his two teenage children visited Mouse World to observe insects up close. Danger Island: This was the serialized live-action segment, set on and around a Pacific island. Memorable for the Catchphrase, "Uh-oh, Chongo!". Directed by Richard Donner, who went on to hit films like The Omen (1976), Superman, The Goonies and Lethal Weapon.note It also starred (Jan-) Michael Vincent as Link.After the Banana Splits became popular, Hanna-Barbera tried to duplicate its success in 1977: Skatebirds on CBS. (Some sources had 1969's The Cattanooga Cats on ABC as live/animated with the Cats in live costumes, but it was all animated.) When The Banana Splits was shown in broadcast syndication, and later on TBS, the following series were added to the package: The Atom Ant Show, accompanied by Precious Pupp and The Hillbilly Bears Secret Squirrel, accompanied by Squiddly Diddly and Winsome Witch The Adventures of Gulliver The New Adventures of Huckleberry FinnFinally, a short-lived revival of the series aired on Cartoon Network in 2008, featuring Keith Scott as Fleegle, Bingo, and Drooper.The series was revived in 2019... as a horror film, The Banana Splits Movie, with Eric Bauza as Fleagle, Bingo, and Drooper. The Splits also appear in Jellystone!.Interesting trivia: The Banana Splits title song (or rather, a high-speed Cover Version by The Dickies) puts in an appearance as Hit Girl's theme music in Kick-Ass. | |

Damsel in Distress: Leslie Hayden from Danger Island, who was captured by Captain Mu-Tan's band or native headhunters in practically every episode and tied up, although all the main characters get this treatment at one point or another, especially late in the serial. | |

Early Installment Character-Design Difference: Snorky originally started out as something of a wooly mammoth with eye-obscuring sunglasses in Season One, and became a clean-shaven elephant wearing a vest and with visible eyes in Season Two. | |

Harsher in Hindsight | |
The Banana Splits / int_4ec4c5ab | comment |
Harsher in Hindsight: in one episode the Splits enthusiastically celebrate the delights of a parade...of Confederate soldier re-enactors. The costumes and dancing of the "Sour Grapes" girls also now seem hugely inappropriate. | |

Three Shorts | |
The Banana Splits / int_4ef0ebb0 | comment |
Three Shorts: When the show was cut down to a half hour for syndication, it would follow a sort of ABC format, with the cartoon segments Arabian Knights and The Three Musketeers rotating each episode for the A, a Banana Splits music video for the B, and Danger Island as the C, all with our hosts engaging in comedy sketches in-between, introducing each segment. Often times when Micro Ventures was shown the format would always have The Three Musketeers as the A, Danger Island as the B, and Micro Ventures as the C. | |

Animated Adaptation: Hardly surprisingly, the band appeared both in live action and in animated form in a full-length feature, The Banana Splits in Hocus Pocus Park (1972), on the animated anthology series The ABC Saturday Superstar Movie. Within the show, "The Three Musketeers" was quite faithful to the original source (especially for Saturday morning kids show standards!). | |
