Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Ruff & Reddy Show was the first production of the Hanna-Barbera studio and the very first network cartoon made specifically for Saturday morning. It premiered December 14, 1957, on NBC.Ruff was a kitten and Reddy a dog, and together they got involved in clandestine escapades involving anything from alien invasions to swamp pirates to treasure plunderers. In some adventures, they are assisted by Professor Gizmo, a kindly old scientist. Taking a cue from Crusader Rabbit, it was serialized with 13 episodes making up a story arc and four story arcs making up a season. They were seen as features of the network show which had live action segments. The first run (1957–60) was hosted by Jimmy Blaine, the second run (1962–64) had Captain Bob Cottle in the host segments. The first run also featured cartoons from Columbia's theatrical short subjects.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Ruff & Reddy, which was all but rejected by Columbia Pictures president Harry Cohn (he was overruled by Columbia's financial officer, John Mitchell—the studio bankrolled and distributed the series), was sponsored by General Foods (maker of Post cereals) and was a modest success. Hanna-Barbera would achieve runaway success a year later with The Huckleberry Hound Show.A comic series based on the original show was released in 2017, featuring Ruff and Reddy as a couple of has-been actors attempting to revitalize their careers.In the HBO Max series Jellystone!, Ruff and Reddy are reimagined as child-age robots. | |

Mythology Gag: The name Quick Draw McGraw appears on a note nailed to a sheriff's door in an episode involving a ghost town and missing sheep. Also, the cave boy Ubble-Ubble ("Chickosaurus" story arc) was said to be the inspiration for Bamm-Bamm on The Flintstones. | |

Comic-Book Adaptation | |
| The Ruff & Reddy Show / int_7c4f6612 | comment |
Comic-Book Adaptation: Ruff and Reddy appeared in 12 issues from Dell Comics, starting with Dell Four Color Comics #937 (adaptation of the "Pint-Sized Pachyderm" story arc). Most issues were drawn by Harvey Eisenberg, others were drawn by Pete Alvarado. Professor Gizmo is a central figure in the Marvel Comics special Laff-A-Lympics publication "The Man Who Stole Thursdays" (summer, 1978). Ruff and Reddy are seen in a framed picture on Gizmo's wall in a panel. Much more recently, as part of DC Comics' Hanna-Barbera Beyond initiative, Ruff and Reddy are now depicted as a pair of struggling stand-up comedians in the 1950s; their first appearance is as the backup to Green Lantern / Space Ghost. | |
