Hey, I Remember This Show: The Pink Panther Show

Believe it or not, Blake Edwards was not directly responsible for these cartoons but he did inspire them with the animated sequences to his Pink Panther movies. Later on, the animated panther was spun off into a series of theatrical cartoons which eventually ended up on this series. Just as Bugs Bunny was not originally created to entertain young TV viewers but rather to entertain adult movie goers, so too was the Pink Panther originally created to amuse a more grown-up audience. That said, it's kinda hard to imagine the Saturday morning TV of my youth without that character.
