Ande last but not least, the star of the movie last year, "Yogi Bear!" Yogi's popularity rised, and in 1961, he was given his own series. Yogi's segment, was replace by a new Hanna-Barbera character, "Hokey Wolf" a mix between Yogi and Top Cat. That same year, Huckleberry Hound was awared with an Emmy.
