One of his careers had his job position on the door listed as "TS & SLTT". This phrase showed up quite often in many Hanna-Barbera productions of this time, but Huckleberry said it more often than anyone else. He also commonly used the phrase "and stuff like that there" in place of "and so on". There were also two crows with Mafia accents who often annoyed Farmer Huck.Īnother trademark of Huck was his tone deaf and inaccurate rendition of "Oh My Darling, Clementine", often used as a running gag. Another regular villain was " Dinky Dalton" a rough and tough western outlaw that Huck usually has to capture, and Crazy Coyote, an Indian who Huck often had to defeat who was his match. One regular antagonist in the series was "Powerful Pierre", a tall and muscular unshaven character with a French accent. Others show him as a vaudeville performer, known for his dancing and singing. He never appeared in futuristic cartoons, only those set in the present or the past. Huck did not seem to exist in a specific time period as he has also been a Roman gladiator, a Medieval knight, and a rocket scientist. Most of his short films consisted of Huck trying to perform jobs in different fields, ranging from policeman to dogcatcher, with results that backfired, yet usually coming out on top, either through slow persistence or sheer luck. The term "huckleberry" can be a slang expression for a rube or an amateur, or a mild expression of disapproval.
