Loopy De Loop

Loopy De Loop was the only theatrical cartoon short series produced by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera after leaving MGM and opening their new Hanna-Barbera Studios. Loopy is a gentleman wolf who mangled the English language in his bid to converse in a bad French-Canadian accent, and always wore a characteristic tuque knit cap. A self-appointed good Samaritan, he dauntlessly fought to clear the bad name of wolves and would open every episode with his trademark introduction "I am Loopy De Loop, the good wolf." Though he was always kind and helpful, his exploits usually got him beaten up or chased out of town he had helped, all for no other reason than the prejudice of being a wolf.

Loopy De Loop is originally voiced by Daws Butler who plays Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Snagglepuss, and Wally Gator.
