| Young Samson and Goliath | comment |
Samson and Goliath, later renamed to Young Samson to avoid confusion with Davey and Goliath, was a Hanna-Barbera cartoon.note As per the title card, this site will call it Young Samson and Goliath It premiered on NBC on September 9, 1967.A teenager named Samson (Tim Matheson) and his dog, Goliath (Mel Blanc), travel the country on a motorbike. Along the way, they encounter all manner of villains, ranging from evil scientists to robots from Venus. When trouble arises, Samson slams his golden wristbands together to become an older, stronger superhero, clearly drawing from The Bible's Samson. Meanwhile, Goliath transforms into a lion. Alex Toth of Space Ghost fame provided the character designs.In syndication, it aired alongside shows from Total Television such as Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales as part of General Mills' Program Exchange. Later on, it was paired with fellow Hanna-Barbera series The Space Kidettes. So a Red Oni, Blue Oni duo, kinda. | |

When he asks General Tong for his reward, Tong hits him over the head with a mallet, knocking him unconscious. He tries to have the robot drop Ramu in a fire pit to kill him, but Samson appears and saves Ramu from death. | |
