Their first series for television The Ruff & Reddy Show, featuring live-action host Jimmy Blaine, premiered on NBC in December 1957. The studio had their first big success with The Huckleberry Hound Show in 1958. The program was a ratings success, and introduced a new crop of cartoon stars to audiences, in particular Huckleberry Hound and Yogi Bear. The show won an Emmy for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Childrens Programming. Over the years, Hanna-Barbera produced many successful shows, including The Flintstones, Yogi Bear, The Jetsons, Scooby-Doo and The Smurfs, among others, earning eight Emmys, a Golden Globe Award, a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, etc. Wiki/ipi\r
