''Dynomutt, Dog Wonder'' is a 30-minute Saturday morning animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. The show centers on a Batman-esque super hero, the Blue Falcon, and his assistant, bumbling yet generally effective robot dog Dynomutt, who can produce a seemingly infinite number of mechanical devices from his body. As with many other animated super-heroes of the era, no origins for the characters are ever provided. ''Dynomutt'' was originally broadcast as a half-hour segment of ''The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour'' (1976–77) and its later expanded forms ''Scooby's All-Star Laff-A-Lympics'' (1977–78) and ''Scooby's All-Stars'' (1978-79); it would later be rerun and syndicated on its own from 1978 on. The cast of ''The Scooby-Doo Show'' appeared as a recurring characters on ''Dynomutt'', assisting the Daring Duo in cracking their crimes. Originally distributed by Hanna-Barbera's then-parent company Taft Broadcasting, Warner Bros. Television currently holds the television distribution to the series. Between January 2 and March 9, 2008, repeats of ''Dynomutt, Dog Wonder'' were shown on Boomerang. On June 4, 2009, ''Dynomutt, Dog Wonder'' returned to Boomerang and airs Thursdays through Sundays at 10am Eastern. ==Overview== Millionaire socialite art dealer Radley Crown (voiced by Gary Owens) and his mechanical mongrel, Dynomutt (voiced by Frank Welker who got the inspiration for the voice from the Gertrude and Heathcliff characters of Red Skelton), enjoy leisure time in their base of operations Big City, until alerted by the Falcon Flash. They immediately dash for the Falcon's Lair (situated in Crown's penthouse apartment), where they switch to their secret identities, the Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder, respectively. Blue Falcon and Dynomutt receive the report via TV screen from the secret GHQ of secret agent F.O.C.U.S. One (voiced by Ron Feinberg) and jump into the Falconcar and speed into the fray against assorted evildoers. In a coup similar to the 1960s ''Batman'' TV series, the first 10 minutes of ''Dynomutt'' ends with a cliffhanger wherein the Daring Duo, in the clutches of their foes, are subjected to a perilous fate which is resolved immediately after the commercial. Like many animated series created by Hanna-Barbera in the 1970s, the show contains a laugh track created by the studio. The metallic mutt employs a system of miniaturized transistors which allow him to extend his limbs or neck and use them to perform extraordinary feats; however, none of them ever work properly. B.F. (as D.W. lovingly refers to him) is more Dynomutt's victim than his master, forever being hamstrung by the latter's insufferably clumsy mechanized mishaps, which often results in Blue Falcon calling Dynomutt "Dog Blunder". Nevertheless, Dynomutt and the Blue Falcon, who is equipped with his own arsenal of supergadgetry, manage to get the situation well in hand. ''Dynomutt, Dog Wonder'' has the historic significance of casting the first African-American public official in Saturday morning cartoons in the form of The Mayor (voiced by Larry McCormick). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dynomutt, Dog Wonder」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
