Tagline: "I'm smarter than the average bear!"
Plot summary: Yogi originated as a back-up segment for The Huckleberry Hound show. The premise is that he's a bear who lives in the park, and for whatever reason really enjoys pic-a-nic baskets. All of his time is spent trying not to get in trouble with Ranger Smith, while at the same time being followed around by his stick-in-the-mud, jiminy cricket wannabe friend, Boo Boo. All the man wanted were the pic-a-nic baskets! That's it. He didn't even care what was inside. Some punk ass teenagers could've taken a crap in the pic-a-nic basket, then left a $20 hanging out of the lid just slightly so someone would come along, try to take the money, and get a face full of poo. Yogi wouldn't have cared. He would've just been happy to get the pic-a-nic basket, without Ranger Smith finding him and giving him The Big Hibernation. (more)
User Comments: Everyone knows that Yogi's character and look were based on Ed Norton from "The Honeymooners." So it's only natural that he be outfitted with a shapeless hat at all times. And Yogi was a man of a certain upbringing, so it just wouldn't be kosher for the anthropomorphic bear to run around the park all day without a tie. But. . .why'd he have the collar? I mean, couldn't the bear just wear the tie around his neck? Was it necessary to give him the very top part of a shirt, and not the rest. He looks like one of those yuppie douchebags that wear a shirt that's like, baby blue, but with a stiff with collar and sleeves. It doesn't work for them, and it doesn't work for Yogi. I mean, Cindy Bear proved that you can just dye your fur unnaturally for the sake of fashion, 'cause she certainly didn't fall out of the womb that particular shade of purple. So there's no reason Yogi couldn't have had a white fur shirt. Then again, Cindy Bear wore a collar and no shirt as well, so nevermind.
