The New Casper Cartoon Show

The New Casper Cartoon Show is a 1963 to 1969 animated television series that appeared on ABC's Saturday morning schedule. The show featured older 1959–62 Famous Studios cartoons, mostly Noveltoons and "Modern Madcaps" which were shown as "Harveytoons", and 26 new Casper the Friendly Ghost episodes that were created specifically for this show, though all of them originally ran in the first 1963–1964 season. The new segments were directed by one of Casper's creators, Seymour Reit, also best known by for his work for Famous Studio's Popeye the Sailor TV series. The show ran for just one season and it was followed by Hanna-Barbera's show Casper and the Angels in 1980, the second production of Harvey Comics with the Casper character.
