Production notes

This was a segment on "The Kwicky Koala Show."

Cartoon pioneer Tex Avery was lured out of retirement in 1979 to create a new cartoon for old colleagues William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Avery's dream was a return to the unbridled zaniness of his earlier MGM work. His creation was Quicky (later renamed Kwicky) Koala, a zippy little Aussie marsupial who could teleport out of harm's way. Unfortunately, Avery died before his final creation could be launched. The Kwicky Koala Show premiered in 1981, a year after Avery's death, with four weekly segments:



Without Avery's guiding hand, the show lasted only one season on CBS, a final tribute to one of animation's great talents.
