Galaxy Goof-Ups 2-Disc Box Set DVD

Galaxy Goof-Ups is the late-1970s Hanna-Barbera Saturday morning animated series, originally part of the Yogi's Space Race variety hour, about a small team of bumbling space-police officers, including Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Quack-Up, and Scare Bear, who patrol a stylized far-future galaxy under the command of Captain Snerdley while taking on a rotating set of intergalactic threats. The show ran on ABC across 1978 and 1979 with 12 episodes that pair the studio's broader classic-character roster with science-fiction setting.

What stands out is the show's specific space-police-and-classic-Hanna-Barbera-character roster. Each episode pairs Yogi and his fellow space goofs against a fresh galactic crisis, the writing leans into pun-driven titles and slapstick physical comedy, and the supporting cast of Captain Snerdley and various intergalactic antagonists anchors a recurring world. The animation has the unmistakable late-70s Hanna-Barbera house style.

It belongs to a specific late-70s Hanna-Barbera lineage of cross-character variety-format animation, the same family of carefully-budgeted character-driven shows the studio favored during that period. For Hanna-Barbera fans whose collection includes the broader classic-character catalog, this Galaxy Goof-Ups run is one of the studio's most distinctive science-fiction-flavored cross-character entries.

Highlights in the set include "The Purloined Princess," "Defective Protectives," "Whose Zoo," "The Space Pirates," "The Clone Ranger," "The Dopey Defenders," "Tacky Cat Strikes Again," "Space Station USA," "Hail, King Yogi!," "Vampire Of Space," "The Treasure Of Congo-Bongo," and "Captain Snerdley Goes Bananas," the twelve-episode run that follows the Galaxy Goof-Ups through their entire ABC arc. This 2-DVD collection gathers all 12 episodes, the complete Galaxy Goof-Ups run in one place, the only sensible home for a series that streaming has not consistently kept available outside Hanna-Barbera classic-rotation windows.
