10 Fun Facts About Cartoons

  • When it aired in 1960, The Flintstones was a huge deal. In fact, it was the most profitable network cartoon franchise for 30 years—until The Simpsons , which first aired in 1989, took its place.
  • Bedrock, Colorado, is a real town in the United States, but it gets so much Flintstones fan mail addressed to characters from the show that the post office there has a unique stamp that says, “Return to Sender - Fictitious Cartoon Character.”
  • Ever seen a cartoon character pull an object out of thin air when, in real life, it’d be impossible for them to keep it stored that way? That magical storage place is called “Hammerspace.”
  • The Addams Family were originally cartoon characters! Their adventures could be found published in the New Yorker.
  • Looney Tunes was originally just a way for Warner Bros. to promote their catalog of music. The first Looney Tunes short is called “Sinkin’ in the Bathtub,” which is a play on the song title “Singin’ in the Bathtub.” The song was written for a movie called The Show of Shows (1929).
  • Did you know the first Bugs Bunny cartoon could’ve won an Oscar? It was nominated in 1939 along with the first Tom and Jerry cartoon, but both ultimately lost.
  • The BBC had to stop broadcasting in the UK during WWII, and the last thing that aired was a Mickey Mouse cartoon (which got interrupted). When the war ended, that same Mickey cartoon was the first thing that played.
  • Scar from The Lion King was originally a baboon; in early plans, the film’s conflict focused on competition between baboons and lions, with baboon Scar manipulating Simba so that he could eventually overthrow the young lion.
  • Disney’s Belle from Beauty and the Beast was partially inspired by the character of Jo March from Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women —specifically the movie adaptation of the novel that was released in 1933. Jo Marsh is headstrong, independent, and loves to read—and so does Belle.
  • In the original He-Man cartoon (in the 1980s), He-Man couldn’t actually use his sword as a weapon, punch, or kick because of broadcast standards during that time. So, he was portrayed as non-violent most of the time and usually outsmarted enemies instead of fighting them.
