Jabberjaw (TV Show)
TV (1976-1978) | TV Show
Jabberjaw is a 30-minute Saturday morning animated series created by Joe Ruby and Ken Spears and produced by Hanna-Barbera which aired on ABC from September 11, 1976, to September 3, 1978.
Like a great deal of Hanna-Barbera's 1970s output, the format and writing for Jabberjaw were similar to that for Scooby-Doo, Josie & the Pussycats, and Speed Buggy. The show also drew inspiration (in the use of a shark as a character) from the overall shark mania of the mid-1970s caused by the then-recent film Jaws. It also shared The Flintstones' penchant for making use of puns as the names of locations, people, etc., in this case, ocean-themed puns (such as "Aqualaska" instead of Alaska).
