* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: Most people acknowledge that the original run of the show was from September 1962 to August 1963. In actuality, the earliest it could have aired is March 1962, as that was when Hanna-Barbera started selling the new cartoon package, and the package was still being advertised to stations as late as January 1963 so the end could have been much later. As it was sold to UsefulNotes/{{syndication}} from the start and not on one network initially like every previous H-B show, the true dates are hard to trace.
** The name "New Hanna-Barbera Cartoon Series" itself is an example; the show has never been referred to by that name, at least not on air. They're three separate shows which were sold as one package.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: As collated in [[http://yowpyowp.blogspot.com/2012/05/hanna-barbera-notes-1960-61.html this blog post]], there are a couple of interesting points about the series that can be found pre-1962.
** ''Wally Gator'' was the ''last'' series to be developed as a concept, even though it became the best known of the three shows that were entered into syndication together (''Touché Turtle'' and ''Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har Har'' prototypes were going to be the only two shows put into syndication, and had concepts as far back as late 1960).
** At one time, ''Wally Gator'' was planned to have the voice work of Creator/PaulFrees and Bill Thompson. Given Frees' previous voice work as [[WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle Captain Peachfuzz]], it's possible that Frees was playing Wally himself, and that the Ed Wynn impression was a character trait from an early stage.
