''Hoppity Hooper'' was an Animated Television Series produced by Jay Ward in 1964 , originally broadcast on ABC and later syndicated under the name "Uncle Waldo's Cartoon Show." The recurring characters were Hoppity Hooper, a Frog , voiced by Chris Allen, "Uncle" Waldo P. Wigglesworth, a Fox , voiced by Hans Conried ; Fillmore, a Bear , voiced by Bill Scott ; and the narrator, Paul Frees . The first two episodes were produced in 1960, and featured Alan Reed as Fillmore. The series wasn't picked up for broadcast till 1964, and by that time Reed was unavailable, so Bill Scott jumped in as Fillmore. Each story consisted of four short cartoons, one aired at the beginning and end of two series episodes. Interspersed were recycled second features from the earlier series '' Rocky And His Friends '' & '' The Bullwinkle Show '' and '' Tennessee Tuxedo And His Tales '' (the latter not produced by Ward but animated by the same company, Gamma Productions ), like '' Peabody's Improbable History '', ''Fractured Fairy Tales'', ''Mr. Know-It-All'', and ''The World of Commander McBragg ''. One of the best-remembered stories is "The Traffic Zone," a parody of The Twilight Zone in which the characters were transformed into vegetables. Another episode featured this exchange:
