''Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kids'' is a Saturday morning cartoon produced by Creator/HannaBarbera Productions in 1973 for Creator/{{NBC}}. The show features several FollowTheLeader elements [[CowboyBebopAtHisComputer that are often bungled online.]] The FiveManBand is designed to fit similar roles to ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooWhereAreYou''. However, the way band travels around the world foiling schemes and the nature of the people they apprehend makes the actual show more like a cross between ''WesternAnimation/JosieAndThePussycats'' and ''WesternAnimation/JonnyQuest''. The show itself depicted the adventures of a teenybopper rock group - led by heartthrob Cassidy, who - while eluding fans - worked undercover with his bandmates as a team of teenage secret agents (Butch, Merilee, Steffy, Wally, and Wally's dog [[Music/ElvisPresley Elvis]]), solving mysteries and apprehending criminals.

* CharacterNameAndTheNounPhrase



* DependingOnTheWriter: In the manual Steffy and Wally are siblings, and in some episodes this is briefly mentioned such as Steffy calling him "brother of mine". That being said in another episode she refers to Wally's mother as "his mother," and in "The Haunted Castle" this relation is not mentioned at all when Wally is the one to receive an inheritance. (Unless there's been some misreporting there and they are instead supposed to be ''step'' siblings.)
