The Skatebirds

Overview

The Skatebirds is a 60-minute show on CBS Saturday mornings from 1977–78, produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. The Skatebirds lasted only a half-season in its original run from September 10, 1977 to January 28, 1978. In the fall of 1979, the show was cut down to a half-hour by removing The Robonic Stooges and Woofer And Whimper, Dog Detectives and broadcast on CBS Sunday mornings on and off until January 1981. In the late 1980s, a different shortened version of The Skatebirds was shown on USA Cartoon Express and later resurfaced on Cartoon Network and Boomerang.
