Jellystone! Welcomes Yogi Bear, Johnny Quest, Captain Caveman & More

Yogi, Boo Boo, and Cindy are ready to invite viewers to the friendly town of Jellystone! on July 29 when the first season of the upcoming animated series from HBO Max makes its debut. And when they do enter the world of showrunner & executive producer C.H. Greenblatt (Chowder, Harvey Beaks) and Warner Bros. Animation's series, they're going to find reimagined takes on a ton of beloved characters. And we're talking a huge cast of characters from Hanna-Barbera's past, including Jabberjaw, Top Cat, Snagglepuss, El Kabong, Wally Gator, Johnny Quest & Hadji, Shag Rugg, Captain Caveman, and more- as you're about to see in the official trailer below.

Here's a look at the official trailer for HBO Max's Jellystone!, set to hit the streaming service on July 29:

Set in the charming town of the same name, Jellystone! follows an ensemble of Hanna-Barbera characters as they live, work, play, and (as is often the case), destroy the town in some silly way together. Huckleberry Hound proudly serves as the town's mayor; Cindy, Boo Boo, and Yogi are the town's medical staff; Jabberjaw works at Magilla's clothing store where they supply all the bow ties and hats to the town's citizens, and every character has a specific role in the community. Their paths cross in fun and ridiculous ways, turning everyday activities into hilarious pandemonium.

"I grew up watching tons of Hanna-Barbera cartoons and have a deep love for these characters," said Greenblatt. "The massive amount of both classic and not-so-classic characters we were able to use from the Hanna-Barbera library is what really makes the Jellystone! universe special. Rather than recreate the feeling of cartoons of the past, we wanted to have silly, weird fun with these characters and expand their personalities to give them more depth. Chances are if there's a character you love, you'll see them somewhere in this world eventually. We hope longtime fans appreciate our take on this world, and we're excited that parents get to introduce and enjoy their favorite Hanna-Barbera characters with their kids."
