Huckleberry was the star and emcee of The Huckleberry Hound Show, the first really successful Hanna-Barbera cartoon show; in 1959 it became the first cartoon show to win an Emmy Award. The other two segments of the original show featured Yogi Bear and his sidekick Boo-boo, and Pixie and Dixie, two mice who each show found a new way to outwit the cat Mr. Jinks. After Yogi Bear was given his own show in 1961, his segment was replaced with one featuring Hokey Wolf and his sidekick Ding-a-Ling.
