Production notes

1981 brought a new co-star and a revamped attitude. Retitled Heathcliff and Marmaduke, the series now alternated Dingbat segments with sketches featuring the massive, infantile Great Dane Marmaduke, a fellow comic strip superstar. This series depicted a cuddlier, less rebellious Heathcliff, which ultimately proved less successful. It wasn't until 1984 that DIC Enterprises revived the show by resurrecting Heathcliff's devil-may-care spirit and introducing a whole new supporting cast.
