Snagglepuss

Svicolone (Snagglepuss in the original American) is a cute pink lion created by Hanna and Barbera in 1959, initially as a secondary character who appeared in the series of Ernesto Quickshot and Tatino and Tatone. The success of this appearance made him deserve a cartoon series of his own, which was made in 1961 and broadcast within the Show of theBear Yogi. Svicolone is a lion who would like to be considered as a normal man therefore, he tries in every way to convince people with his civil and polite behavior, despite himself human beings consider him as a fearsome lion and try in every way to give him hunting, so that as a predatory animal, Svicolone is always destined to be prey and to escape, not before having pronounced the characteristic phrase with a Bolognese accent "Svicolo, swaying everything left handed!" sometimes with the addition of the word "even!". The characteristic of the Svicolone lion is its voice, which in Italy was beautifully dubbed by the great Renzo Palmer. Svicolone also possesses a great passion for the theater and not infrequently, he is seen reciting Hamlet, holding a skull. Svicolone is part of the gang of Yogi since 1973, which aboard the Arcaplano, is committed to saving the world from pollution. The cartoons are currently broadcast on digital terrestrial Boing and on the satellite channel of Boomerang.
