Boomerang Unveils “No Undies Mondays”

ATLANTA, September 25:
Boomerang will launch a new weekly franchise, No Undies Mondays, that pays tribute to classic “pants-less” cartoon
characters.

Starting Monday, October
9, from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m., Boomerang, Cartoon Network's commercial-free
animation network, will feature classic Hanna-Barbera personalities in No
Undies Mondays, a new weekly
one-hour salute to pants-less-ness.

"Boomerang is home to
some of the biggest stars in the world,” says Marc Buhaj, the VP of programming
and scheduling for Boomerang and Cartoon Network. “The one difference between
these celebrities and the rest of Hollywood is that our characters have
absolutely no problem with being caught with their pants down. While most of
our dapper stars accessorize extremely well with a sophisticated hat, a finely
starched collar and a classic bowtie, many of them neglect to wear pants! What
better way to pay tribute to this 'cheeky' fashion than use it as inspiration
for a weekly programming franchise that showcases cartoon stars who don't wear
pants: No Undies Mondays."

Stars of No Undies
Monday include: Jellystone Park's
most famous resident, "smarter than the average bear" Yogi Bear; the
slow-talking, Southern-accented, Clementine-singing dog, Huckleberry Hound; New
York's bright yellow leader of Broadway alleycats, Top Cat; U.S. Marshall of
the old West, Quick Draw McGraw, and his Mexican burro sidekick, Baba Looey;
and the forever "exiting, stage left" lion who sounded like comedian
Bert Lahr, Snagglepuss.
