I Blame Hannah Barbera

Furry News Network - Mon 25 Apr 2011 - 11:55

Growing up in the 70′s, there were lots of interesting things on television.  One program I remember above all others was the Banana Splits show.  This was designed by Sid & Marty Kroft and was produced and distributed by Hannah Barbera.

This is the reason I fell in love with the with Fursuits.  I wanted to have as much fun as these guys did!

Let me introduce you to the Banana Splits! The main characters were Fleegle, a beagle; Bingo, a gorilla; Drooper, a lion, and Snorky (called “Snork” in the theme song lyrics), an elephant. Fleegle would assume the role as leader of the Banana Splits and preside at club meetings. The characters were played by actors in fleecy costumes similar to later Sid and Marty Krofft characters such as H.R. Pufnstuf. They all spoke in English (Drooper with a Southern drawl), except for Snorky who “spoke” in honking noises.

The Tra-La-La song is still as infectious today as it was in 1967.

Version #2

The 2008 Revival of the show

Author: AppleCider

Dear Princess Celestia,

Today I learned that starting out new endeavors with your friends is both fun and challenging. Every new experience is a chance to grow and discover yourself. And this is especially true when you have friends who are willing to help out even if it may be a little right around the edges.

I would like to thank Chef Sandy, Doral, and Keb for jumping into the show this week. And the show is a learning process – we had a while 23 episodes to cover in one show. Give us some time, fellow bronies.

Logo belongs to the internet and the awesome people in it.

Intro music is The Friends Forever Mix by Chain Algorithm (youtube)

Outtro music is Fluttershy’s Lullaby by BandPuffs (youtube)

Sleep well, bronies.

DeathSpank Dev's New Game Mashes Up Angry Birds and Plants vs. Zombies

furryne.ws - Sat 23 Apr 2011 - 05:32
Indie developer Hothead Games surprised people with the simultaneous announcement and release of its newest game today, Bunny the Zombie Slayer for iOS.
Appropriately enough for Easter, you play as a bunny who shoots eggs at attacking zombies. The debut trailer makes it look like a combination of Plants vs. Zombies (in that there are zombies shambling across someone's yard from right to left) and Angry Birds (you fling eggs, slingshot-style, to take out your enemies).

The developer offered up the following description: "You control a heroic bunny, who must protect children searching for his eggs from waves of Zombie Hordes. These once-deceased characters (nurses, businessmen, cheerleaders and more) will stop at nothing to take what is most precious from these young ovo-searchers. Using the Bunny?s weapon of choice, brightly colored eggs, you can unleash a yolky fury to dismember and decapitate the undead. Aim for the head!"
