History WesternAnimation / LuckyLuke1983

* AdaptedOut: In "Sarah Bernhardt", the title character is replaced with a generic opera singer from Boston for some reason (the episode is still called ''Sarah Bernhardt'', [[ArtifactTitle inconsistently]]).

The first season aired in the USA first, then in Europe, in 1983-1984. Creator/HannaBarbera was involved in that run (hoping to replicate the success of ''WesternAnimation/{{The Smurfs|1981}}'' in the US, they dropped out when it didn't). A {{revival}} with IDDH happened in 1991-1992. The 52 albums (26 for each season) that got adapted in the series in total range from 1953 to 1988, which means the series covers pretty much all of Creator/ReneGoscinny's comic book run, plus those of a few other writers who took over after his passing in 1977.

Lucky Luke is a solitary street-smart and [[FastestGunInTheWest fast shooting]] cowboy drifting through TheWildWest. Accompanied by his faithful horse Jolly Jumper, and most of the time by dumb prison guard dog Rantanplan, Luke finds himself confronted with various situations and has to deal with plenty of bandits and thugs, chiefly among them the Dalton Brothers.

* ReusedCharacterDesign: Several. For example, one of the bad guys trying to shoot Luke upon his arrival in the namesake town of ''[[WesternAnimation/LuckyLukeDaisyTown Daisy Town]]'' (and whose design was [[ComicBookFantasyCasting based off]] Creator/WallaceBeery) was reused as Hank Bully (an old acquaintance of Luke) in the "Bride of Lucky Luke" episode.
