Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har Har 2-Disc Box Set DVD
Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har Har is the early-1960s Hanna-Barbera syndicated short series about Lippy, a cheerful, optimistic lion, and Hardy Har Har, his perpetually-pessimistic hyena companion, whose mismatched temperaments drive a long string of pun-filled adventures across various small-town and exotic settings. The shorts ran in syndication and on ABC across 1962 and 1963 with later airings extending the property's reach into broader Hanna-Barbera rotations across the decades.
What stands out is the show's commitment to its specific optimist-and-pessimist comic engine. Each short pairs Lippy's relentless cheerfulness against Hardy's perpetual gloom, the writing leans into pun-driven titles and slapstick physical comedy, and the supporting visual gags are built around whatever genre or setting the duo has stumbled into for the week. The animation has the unmistakable early-60s Hanna-Barbera house style.
It belongs to a specific early-60s Hanna-Barbera lineage of short-form syndicated animation, the same family of paired-character shorts the studio produced during that period for cross-broadcaster distribution. For viewers whose Saturday morning memory has a soft spot for Hanna-Barbera's broader pun-driven catalog, Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har Har is one of its more underseen but consistently warm entries.
Highlights in the set include "See-Saw," "Water-Melon Felon," "Charge Of The Fright Brigade," "Gun Fighter Lippy," "A Thousand And One Frights," "Genie Is A Meany," "Witch Crafty," "Mouse In The House," "Crazy Cat Capers," "Phoney Pony," "Monster Mix-Up," "Hocus Focus," "Drop Me A Lion," and "No Spooking Allowed," shorts that capture both the show's quietest character moments and its biggest comic disasters. This 2-DVD collection gathers all 52 episodes, the complete Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har Har run in one place.
