The shop owner has looked after Magilla (Allan Melvin, The Brady Bunch ) since he was a baby. Customers take the snappily-dressed simian home, he messes everything up--they bring him back. Looks like Peebles (actor/director Howard Morris, The Atom Ant Show ) is stuck with the big lug. Granted, little Ogee (Jean Vander Pyl, The Flintstones ), who makes her debut in the seventh episode ("Come Blow Your Dough"), would love a pet gorilla, but the redheaded tot is always short of cash. Magilla first bounded onto the boob tube in 1964. Breaking from the usual pattern, the series premiered in syndication before moving to network TV two year later. Although the gorilla appears in the title cartoon of each episode, the other segments are dedicated to Ricochet Rabbit and Droop-a-long and Punkin' Puss and Mushmouse . Ricochet (Don Messick, Scooby-Doo ) is "the fastest sheriff in the west," Droop-a-long coyote (Mel Blanc, Bugs Bunny ) is his foot-dragging deputy, and Punkin' (Melvin) and Mushmouse (Morris) are a hillbilly Tom and Jerry, locked in a rambunctious Hatfield and McCoy-type feud. This Classic Collection includes 23 episodes plus eight shorts. Throughout, the gorilla is drafted by the army ("Private Magilla"), cast in a movie ("Groovey Movie"), and abducted by aliens ("Planet Zero"). After moving to ABC, the secondary toons would eventually be replaced by Breezly and Sneezly and Peter Potamus and His Magic Flying Balloon , featuring much of the same voice talent. In both cases, the suspender-sporting primate was the top star of the show. As the theme song, introduced in episode 14 ("Motorcycle Magilla"), would have it, "A gorilla like Magilla is nice at any price!" --Kathleen C. Fennessy Magilla Gorilla: The Complete Series Magilla Gorilla, is a loveable but clumsy gorilla, who lives in Mr. Peebles' Pet Shop. Mr Peebles repeatedly tries to sell or give away the gorilla with no success. Backing segments include Punkin' Puss & Mushmouse and Rocochet Rabbit & Droop-a-long Coyote. These 23 complete cartoons plus 8 bonus Magilla Gorilla classic Hanna Barbera cartoons are now available for the first time ever on DVD! Review: My childhood favorite - A trip back to my childhood.

They could only show so many cartoon shorts in what was, essentially, a kids' variety program, and Hanna-Barbera, which made the best TV cartoons, only offered their shows to networks in half-hour formats. That was until 1962, when H-B syndicated "Wally Gator", "Touche Turtle", and "Lippy the Lion" shorts, enabling local networks to run individual cartoons. In 1964, The Magilla Gorilla Show was also locally syndicated first, although it later relaunched on ABC. Later the "Richochet Rabbit" segment moved over to the new Peter Potamus Show, "Breezly and Sneezly" from that series sliding into the vacated spot. Both series were developed for and sponsored by Ideal Toys (and have the word and logo of "Ideal" in the theme song), and in 1966, both joined ABC's Saturday morning line-up. This DVD set captures all 23 episodes of the first Magilla Show on four one-sided discs, with the supporting "Richochet Rabbit" and "Mushmouse and Punkinpuss" segments. It's been pointed out that the catchy opening theme is missing, although it plays behind the onscreen menu, as are the closing credits. This is ironic, as one of the special features on disc three shows Hoyt Curtin and Bill Hanna playing and singing the memorable song. Also on disc three are seven extra Magilla 'toons, probably from the later batch, which were aired until 1967, and an odd bit called "Peebles Petshop". This opens onto a picture of Magilla's well-known home with arrows here and there. Clicking on an arrow launches a mini video, usually with animation historian Jerry Beck, and some with Magilla voice actor Allan Melvin. There's even one on Chugga-Chugga, the pet shop dachsund and a recurring character. On disc four there's another extra Magilla cartoon, and a 1964 black and white TV special, "Here Comes a Star" made for local stations to run prior to the show's debut. Everyone seems very stiff, as if they have stage fright, but they air an entire Magilla Gorilla cartoon. Here you do see the opening song segment, but it's in black and white. The theme song cavil aside, this is a pretty good set, and a great chance for H-B fans and animation buffs to see lots of classic cartoons for not much coin. The Boomerang channel and the show of the same name on Cartoon Network showed some of these shows, along with lots of other classic retro H-B 'toons. Hopefully more Boomerang favorites are ahead, like Augie Doggie and Doggie Daddy, Squiddly Diddly, and Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space. When Scooby Do made DVD, kids took to it like a new show, and made the DVDs best sellers. Look how many "new" shows in the Hanna-Barbera roster yet remain to debut on DVD. ## Frequently Bought Together - Magilla Gorilla - The Complete Series - Wacky Races: The Complete Series [DVD] - Yogi Bear Show, The: The Complete Series (Rpkgd DVD) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/5551319-magilla-gorilla-the-complete-series](https://www.desertcart.no/products/5551319-magilla-gorilla-the-complete-series) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
