Produced by Hanna-Barbera for CBS in 1966, the same year as Space Ghost, Frankenstein Jr. was a gigantic, sentient Do-Anything Robot built and commanded by boy scientist Buzz Conroy. Their base of operations was a mountaintop laboratory run by Buzz's father.
The show's backup segment was The Impossibles. Coil Man, Fluid Man and Multi Man were the secret identities of a trio of otherwise unnamed rock guitarists.
Frankenstein Jr. and the Impossibles was one of the last H-B series animated in the classic Ed Benedict style.
Not to Be Confused With Frankenstein Junior, a Market-Based Title[1] for Young Frankenstein.
Tropes used in Frankenstein, Jr. include:
- Alternative Foreign Theme Song: The Japanese version has this.
- Animated Series
- Captain Ersatz: Hanna-Barbera attempted to develop a cartoon of the Beach Boys, in light of the success of ABC's cartoon of the Beatles. The Impossibles may have been created when the Beach Boys project fell through.
