Sven Squad Brings a "BOO-Nanza" to MeTV, Saturday Morning Cartoons

Check out a clip of Svengoolie's Sven Squad hosting MeTV's Saturday Morning Cartoons for this weekend's House of Svengoolie Cartoon BOO-Nanza.

The word went out back in September, and now… the time has arrived! Of course, we're talking about MeTV's third annual "Svengoolie's Halloween BOO-Nanza" – with the holiday hauntings getting underway this weekend. Thankfully, the fine folks over at MeTV were kind enough to pass along an exclusive clip from one of the events we're looking forward to. This weekend's edition of Saturday Morning Cartoons is going to have some very fitting hosts for the Halloween season – Svengoolie's (Rich Koz) Sven Squad – Gwengoolie (Sarah Palmer), Nostalgiaferatoo (Bill Leff), and IMP (Scott Gryder). Beginning at 7 am ET/PT, the trio will be offering the "House of Svengoolie Cartoon BOO-Nanza," with some spooky Looney Tunes cartoons lined up for the occasion – and we have an exclusive look at the special waiting for you below.

Along with the sneak preview, you'll also find out details on Svengoolie Classic Horror & Sci-Fi Movie, with host Svengoolie and the Sven Squad offering back-to-back movies every Saturday night all month long (with The Son of Frankenstein and Monster That Challenged the World kicking things off this weekend). In addition, there will be encore presentations of MeTV's Sventoonie during the late-night hours and mini-marathons of Halloween-themed classic TV westerns and comedy TV series.
