Production notes
First aired the week of Monday, October 13, 1958.
The first appearance of Powerful Pierre. This character is also referred to as Powerhouse Pierre.
This was a segment on "The Huckleberry Hound Show." The show was originally sponsored by Kellogg's Cereal.
As originally planned, Huckleberry Hound's voice was to vary according to the cartoon- from Gary Cooper's in Westerns to Humphrey Bogart's in police stories, for example.
Director-actor Jack Webb made a joke about Huckleberry Hound in his 1959 feature film "-30-" (also known as "Deadline Midnight"). Research indicated that many viewers of the series were adults. Bars were said to close whenever The Huckleberry Hound Show aired.

Love this one!
I've always loved this cartoon, especially the "Good dog!" scene, and the line "Pierre is not afraid of the snowball! Pierre does not scare! So there!" Great Daws performance on both characters!
