History WesternAnimation / YogisSpaceRace

* TheCameo: WesternAnimation/QuickDrawMcGraw, [[WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble]], WesternAnimation/JanaOfTheJungle have made appearances. Deputy Goofer, and Mr. Fuddy have also appeared in at least one episode each.[[note]]Sheriff Muletrain has also appeared, but only in the opening with Deputy Goofer, in the part that references The Buford Files segment. Mr. Fuddy also appears in the opening.[[/note]]

* TheBadGuyWins: Phantom Phink won most of the races, either as himself or as Captain Good. Too bad for him the prizes are crap. See UndesirablePrize below.

* IdenticalGrandson: Aside from the case mentioned below, Captain Good was once said to have had an ancestor named Sir Good during the Middle Ages. Sir Good even had a cat who looked like Captain Good's cat. Of course, since Captain Good was just a cover for Phantom Phink, it's questionable how true this is.

* UndesirablePrize: ''All of them''. Every single prize offered to whoever wins the episode's race has some highly unpleasant catch to it. For example, one episode's prize is a trip on a luxury transport plane called the Zoncorde. At the end of the episode, Huckleberry Hound is shown clinging to the wing of the Zoncorde, saying to Quack-Up, "Maybe next time we can ride ''in'' the Zoncorde."

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/YogisSpaceRace_4337.jpg]]''Yogi's Space Race'' was a SaturdayMorningCartoon produced in 1978 by Creator/HannaBarbera for Creator/{{NBC}}. It was essentially an update of the same studio's ''WesternAnimation/WackyRaces'', with WesternAnimation/YogiBear, Huckleberry Hound and WesternAnimation/{{Jabberjaw}} among the competitors.

** There are a few prizes which genuinely ''could'' be good but go bad due for various reasons (a space bear that Yogi and Scare Bear antagonized chasing them all the way to their vacation place, Captain Good getting stuck inside a compact car that works perfectly as a prank by Clean Cat, Good and Clean Cat winning free passage on a cruise but forgetting to reserve a cabin until their all taken etc.)

* PutOnABus: Yogi's pal Boo Boo is nowhere to be seen.
* RecycledInSpace: Literally so.

* CassandraTruth: In one episode, the space race's official computer revealed that Captain Good and Phantom Phink are one and the same, but nobody believed. [[spoiler:At least Good/Phink had to rescue the others to protect the masquerade.]]

* DudeWhersMyRespect: Jabberjaws is obsessed with getting respect in a light-hearted, wistful way and the word works into about half of his sentences.
