The Banana Splits are four funny animal characters who featured in a late 1960s children's variety show made for television. The costumed hosts of the show were Fleegle (guitar, vocals), Bingo (drums, vocals), Drooper (bass, vocals) and Snorky (keyboards, effects). The Banana Splits Adventure Hour was an hour-long, packaged television program that featured both live action and animated segments.
The series was produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions, and ran for 31 episodes on NBC Saturday mornings, from September 7, 1968 to September 5, 1970. The series costumes and sets were designed by Sid and Marty Krofft and the series' sponsor was Kellogg's Cereals.The show was Hanna-Barbera's initial foray into mixing live action with animation. In 1967, William Hanna and Joseph Barbera approached the Krofft Brothers to design costumes for a television show which would feature animated and live-action segments, with the whole show hosted by a bubblegum rock group of anthropomorphic characters.
Each show represented a meeting of the "Banana Splits Club", and the wraparounds featured the adventures of the club members, who doubled as a musical quartet, meant to be reminiscent of The Beatles and (especially) their NBC counterpart, The Monkees. The main characters were Fleegle, a beagle; Bingo, a gorilla; Drooper, a lion, and Snorky (called "Snork" in the theme song lyrics), an elephant. Fleegle would assume the role as leader of the Banana Splits and preside at club meetings.
The characters were played by actors in voluminous fleecy costumes similar to later Sid and Marty Krofft characters such as H.R. Pufnstuf. They all spoke in English (Drooper with a Southern drawl in the manner of Michael Nesmith, Fleegle with a pronounced lisp), except for Snorky who "spoke" in honking noises.

That 50 years later these characters would be portayed as serial killer robots.

Pretty pissed about it
True

Once you hear this theme song, it never leaves your head.
I literally never watched this show, but my dad would sing the song to me growing up and it has never left my head. Just looked up "one banana two banana three banana four" and here I am.
@@ferbfreeman9239 EXACT same story here. My dad sang this all the time and showed me the video all the time when I was young. Searched same thing to find this lol
For real! Lol
Got that right! It’s doesn’t take much to get it stuck in your head!
@@ferbfreeman9239 True, no matter how hard you try!!
My mom died tragically in '67. I remember this distinctly as an 8-10 year old, just a soothing, 30 minutes a week to take my mind off a tumultuous time. This silly intro helped immeasurably in so many ways.
Sorry to hear your story. I know what you mean. Some things provide temporary escapism from the pain of the present.
the banana splits movie: NOT ANYMORE!
🕊✌️❤️
Sorry to hear you lost your mum at an early age Silliness can provide a great distraction from deep grief and is to be celebrated ! 💕
@@alcoholicmarmite lovely wise kind 👌 ❤️ 😊
Yeah, I'm 55, lived in Australia all my life, and though I forgot the details of the shows I saw when I was a small kid, I never forgot this theme song. It's magic to hear it today.
I’d get in to my dads coke and watch this after school back in the 70’s.. 3rd grade was freakin awesome
Banana Splits in Australia ?
This used to be on Saturday mornings in the UK, early eighties - Used as filler with cartoons like Arabian Nights, Battle of the Planets and stuff like that.
Never even considered it was of the sixties till I got older and learned of, and recognised, the "sixties" sound.

An Samoan I’ve seen the banana splits after their horror movie trailer
Believe it or not, I'm an older millennial and I remember watching this on cartoon network when I was a child, but I grew up in Latin America, important detail. The segments of these characters were like a sideshow after the main one, it didn't appear funny to me but it was a good distraction 😝
I don't care how old you are - hearing this makes you remember what it feels like to be a kid again. Thank you.

Warner Brothers brought this upon The poor banana Splits.
Well I'm a kid
now an unused fnaf script is making them a movie

I used to watch this regularly as a kid - absolutely brilliant
I am 75 now but lived thousands of miles away from home at around 21 y.o. Everyone in our apartment used to gather round and enjoy this show when it came on and even dance around to the theme song which came into my head randomly about 5 mins ago!! That is why I am on RUclips right now typing this. Lonely at that time but shows like this kept me sane.

[SYFY Exec:What If we turned it into Five Nights at Freddy’s though?]
[WB:Okay, why not?]
EnragedEric wasn’t a FNAF Movie in the works?
Geangulo A. Probably stuck in Development Hell or stalled because the creator of the games had issues with WB so now he’s doing it with Blumhouse but there’s still stalling
Probably makes it more effective if it is based on characters that actually existed
Next thing you know, Five Nights at Freddys will go from horror to children show
EnragedEric close to the fnaf movie
I'm glad I'm old enough, (59) to remember this being show on TV, in the late 1960's. Wonderful, carefree times.
This 58 year old man still remembers these guys from the days of his childhood!! Man oh man what a time to grow up!!
I'm 60, watched it every school holiday in 1970s. Like it was yesterday
I feel sorry for kids today 😢
@@Willsey me too
This 64 year old remembers it too.
Being of a similar age and laughing at this video in a happy way.
Stiff Little Fingers, or more accurately, Jake Burns and the Big Wheel and the song, She Grew Up. Find the version by Three Men and Black called She Grew Up. Jake is part of that quartet. "I grew up but I've didn't grow old." Hence watching the blooming Banana Splits!
i doubt that William Hanna and Joseph Barbera saw them as murderers
41 year old watched on boomerang back around 2000 or 99! I don't even like 5 Nights at Freddy's which I thought was a ripoff of the beloved man of our dreams!
I can't be the only one that thinks the new movie is kind of disrespectful, am I?
I find the new movie disrespectful
Hanna and Barbera never saw Scooby and Shaggy as stoners either. Their innocence on the blatant strangeness of some of their creations is kind of funny in and of itself.
They're probably rolling in their graves over the movie
Can’t believe that Warner Brothers made this kids show a horror movie. What in the hell were they thinking 🤣
Well, it was directed by Richard Donner who also went on to direct The Omen. Lol
I know and I'm mad and I think the movie still should be called five nights at Freddys the movie right
FNAF money
Well, Paramount made Dora a PG action movie, so this isn’t so bad compared to that
It’s sad
My father used to carry us (Me my brother & sisters) from bed to the living room sofa, still sleepy and in pajamas to watch the cartoons on saturday mornings. Good times!
I’m a 50’s mom who raised my first two kids on this and now sing it to their kids!! My grandkids love that grandma can sing songs their friends don’t know!! Lol I teach them all the vintage songs!!

Best intro song on the planet Earth! At 58 years old , I still remember every word of it.
The Joe 90 theme was pretty damn fine too but that might have been more of a UK thing.
I'm 33 and had to remind my mom of this show! And she couldn't believe I remembered it :)
right there with you brother i'm 57 and still remember. of course, that was when Hollywood actually had talented writers unlike today.
@@abntemplar82 Could agree more
Holy crap! Actual tear of joy and slight fit of the giggles as i have not heard this since about late 70/80’s in the 🇬🇧 and so right it has such a profound effect on the senses. The banana splits is the very essence of why i never wanted and never did grow up 😂😂😂 I’m 51✌️❤️🇬🇧
Unless you were around then you have no comprehension of just how massive this show was...
As a little kid I loved the Banana Splitz
This show scared the shit out of me as a kid. Seems like Warner Brothers had the same idea as me...
Even so "The Banana Splits" movie isn't being clever or funny by portraying these debatably creepy costumes as killers, it's instead taking a joke too far.
Same, I just found it eerie
@@supermariof0521 They're not even creepy costumes
@@heartbust4624 Exactly.
Stupid stupid70s ruled I love y'all too!! 💩💀💥🔥

If they wanted to make it more adult, why not do an adult comedy?
Make a remake where they kill everyone
Mining Creeper bruh y’all be ruining everything stfu
@@cfruge444 that was a joke
Waned bros: I can fix that.
Funny story. In Marine boot camp one guy in our platoon claimed to be a character on the Banana splits show. He was much older than the common recruit age of 18 or 19. He was 26. This was 1981. He was older than our Drill Instructors. Once the DIs found out about his claim, they made him sing the theme song in front of the platoon. And he nailed it just like on the show! The DIs and the entire platoon were laughing so hard. It was the funniest thing. He was 5 years older than my 21 years so that would have made him 13,14, or 15 during the run of the show. I don't know if he really was a Banana split but he sure pulled it off.
Thank you for defending freedom
This song will now be associated with Wolverine leaks lmao who would've thought

I’ve never watched the Banana Splits before but it’s clear that you loved the show. I’m very sad that your brother passed away, it must be hard.

I love this show. and this music used in Nimona Movie, is kickass and memorable too!
Watched this on a London TV channel in the 70's. What a life...😁

Thanks for the information. I didn’t really know any backstory on why Fnaf was replaced with the splits.
So funny

Those lyrics actually work in the song, I love it.
Maybe say it like warner bro’s so it’s more rhyme
Remember this: 5 years old, cross-legged in front of the tv, in the early morning before school!!! Memories! The tunes never go!
The Banana Splits, H.R. Pufnstuf, Land of the Lost, Sigmund and the Sea Monsters… Damn, those legendary, creative geniuses Sid and Marty Krofft produced some seriously nuts, live-action, kids TV shows. And, as a kid in the 70’s, I loved every second of it.

I’m 62 now and I loved this show as a kid and the music takes me right back and I remember the cartoons on the show Arabian knights was my favourite
I'm 61 grew up in Ottawa Canada we used to get all the cool American cable channels with all the cool American cartoons and shows and we had a few of our own Canadian cartoons like Rocket Robin Hood. I also enjoyed the Hercules cartoons.
I LOVED THIS SHOW, it was pure childhood whimsical fun, it had music, laughs, cartoons, and adventures. How any generation grew up without the Tra-La-La song is beyond me. It teaches kids to not take life so seriously stop and have a little fun once in awhile.
Totally agree. I loved this program growing up. Think children don't have this kind of innocent fun telly anymore

@GzeroAnimations too late!!!
@GzeroAnimations 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I did understand the joke but I was being sarcastic
Not sure about that ..those 'sour grapes'🍋🍇🍇female adversaries / child dancers performed some rather adult style dance moves ..some moves were and still *are* too adult for children.. these were children under appx. 12. yrs. old dancing ..and dressed in ultra - minis ( w / tights) for costumes.. rather inappropriate skirts for the girls and for saturday morning t.v. viewing.. as a nine yr. old in 1968 , ( 7 yrs. old in 1966 , when the series started ) I thought their dancing was a tad off - kilter then for little children😵even when the series debuted in 1966.. I thought the dancing was weird then . Very advanced adult - style dancing . It shocked my seven yr. old brain then 😕😬 .. children shouldn't be dancing like what some of their moves were.. .. for anyone under 13- 14 yrs. old , it seemed too suggestive in moves.. as a child then , I didn't like it at all .. the dancing made me uncomfortable to view 😳😕😬😕.. and as a kid , I sometimes wondered **who** would choreograph *this* *kind* *of* *dancing* *on* *purpose* .. *for* *children* . ?!? To me it looked *weird* and not the way a child that age would think of dancing of their own thinking brain🧠👀 processes😨🙄😒 .. that is all.. just the thoughts of my then ' kid - thinking' brain🧠🙄😒😳😕😵😣

Oh, what memories this brings to this 53 year old man. Such a joyous and innocent show, from a time way different than today . Kids have no idea how good we old folks had it compared to the turmoil and tragedy of now. Nothing else compares to the Banana Splits.
I was partial to the H R puffin stuff. :)
Darth Frodo what about Vietnam and Civil Rights?
As a forty four year old man, I can say that those years were very weird. We just were not aware of all the mess.
Ricieri D Estefani Junior That pretty much was going to be my reply to Andy. We kids were oblivious to the problems of the time. Unless you were directly impacted by the civil rights struggle or Vietnam, kids didn't care, sad to say. In the 70s we didn't have 24 hour news channels or smartphones with a steady diet of current events. All kids care about nowadays is playing on tablets or smartphones. And they are still oblivious to the problems of the time.
As a 52 year old Englishman.i agree!

Hanna-Barbera should have The Banana Splits in 2023. I think the children of today might like them
I was born in 2001, but I remember every morning. Just watching Boomerang. That was when the channel was still in its prime. Airing this, The Flintstones, Droopy, Tom & Jerry, The Snorkels, Josie And The Pussy Cats, Hong Kong Phooey, and so much more. This commercial was just an absolute vibe. When it would come on between shows! It is sad that they had to switch up the network like they did. Definitely ruined memories, but they will never be forgotten. It was an incredible long run this era had. On so many different children's lives. Clearly it was on for damn near 50 years. I just miss this.....sheeesh!
What’s strange to me is I was born in 1989 and before Cartoon Network started to make more of their own shows and before Boomerang became a channel, everything that was shown on Boomerang when it first started as a new channel was on Cartoon Network. Hanna-Barbera stuff was just so damn good even if it was old by a few decades or more.
@@MikeAbili Hanna-Barbera studios is legendary! Will never be forgotten. If it wasn’t for them. There will be no Cartoon Network!

You still are a kid! (If you doubt me, wait until you're 25 and assess your mental age as you were at 17!)
Too bad boomerang went to playing the same crap that cartoon network shits out
chaosdemonwolf1 NO, nowadays instead, they just insist on dragging it down to the level of Spongebob Squarepants >:(

I'd like to take the moment to appreciate just how much hard work these actors are putting in. Those suits are not exactly going to be the most comfortable or flattering things on earth to wear and move in, but they're dancing, driving, jumping, the works!
I can vouch for that. As a radio station intern, I wore a buzzard costume that had a tall and heavy neck and head… my head was actually in the buzzard’s shoulders. The worst part was wearing it in the summer. Even in an air conditioned theater where the station was sponsoring a movie, it was miserably hot and humid inside the costume.
@@JBM425 Oh my goodness, we can only imagine. The bitter comfort is that you must have given many children a lot of joy by wearing it!
So true!
Actors? Actors? Bingo is REAL. You need to have a long hard talk with yourself.
@@rrbh That's the only kind of cognitive dissonance I find adorable 😇😍🥰
Loved this in UK on Saturday mornings. Just a memory now. Anyone watching this in Feb 2023?
EU AQUI COM MEUS 58 ANOS, VOLTEI NA INFÂNCIA. QUE BELA LEMBRANÇA.
Lol can't believe they turned this into a horror movie
The park playgrounds from your youth have had all the fun equipment removed because they were dangerous. Who knew!
what movie was it?
@@eileanandnatalee1424 the banana splits
@@Littlemilkdud i think eilean buchanan asked for the horror movie, not the show.....
There's actually a theory that this was based on the script for the FNAF movie when Warner Bros had the rights to it.
This brings back old lost memories that not even I new existed
and now these character are killers and ripping body apart
Always makes me think of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches...shag carpet...polyester...rotary tv dials...
IT IS A SHAME THAT THEY HAVE TRANSFORMED AN ICONIC CHILDREN'S SERIES IN ITS TIME, INTO A HORROR MOVIE, THAT SUCH TWISTED MINDS, SEEMS LIKE THEY NEVER HAD A CHILDHOOD!!!!
Ahhh memories as a kid watching this show, loved it 👍
This song is all I hear in my head all the time
There may be medication for that.
@@jamesnowicki5345 lol
It’s either that or fucking baby shark lol
That´s true!
This is when Saturday mornings television was television especially back in the days! Those were the days! thanks!
Too bad it's not like that anymore
Bro I miss those days
Childrens attention span was longer too. Today, our grandkids would have changed the channel well before the intro was over. XD
3 Channels we're all we needed

Growing up in the early seventies, this song made me so happy when I heard it. Now Sirius XM plays on their 70s channel occasionally as a promotion/Time Machine teaser…..Hanna and Barbera were geniuses!
I was born in 2009, and probably wouldn't have had a clue what "the banana Splits: adventure hour" was if it wasn't for a horror movie based on them. in fact, I got to know them pretty quickly, and learned about their history. I really liked their original versions, they became the most native for me. I am glad that I got acquainted with such a wonderful Hannah Barbara show.
Nobody:
Hanna Barbera:
Not a soul:
Syfy: *you wanna see these innocent animal characters rip a guy apart?*
Cryptic Peach well I find bingo and fleegle a bit creepy before the movie
lol
Me: YEAH!!!
lmao
Its sad honestly because now kids have to fear them instead think them as friends. The movie ruined the character’s reputation.
omg how can you not smile listening to this
I used to play this out when I was a DJ in the mid 90s playing mainly 60s and Britpop music. Seeing 600 people dancing to this was great! :)
I'm nearly retired, and yet, to this day, when ever I have to do something for around 15 seconds, I sing a slightly modified version of this little tune in my head! Passes the time perfectly. Just timed it, and it takes me 16 seconds exactly, perfect. That's close enough for Farm Work.
I still can’t believe that some crazy person looked at this innocent tv show from the 60s and said “I wanna see that lion character shove a lollipop down someone’s Throat”
*I liked the horror movie*
As a kid this show scared me because of the costumes
I liked the movie but this was a very innocent show
The movie is just an extention of the "killer clown" craze that was popular in the last decade.
I don't think "killer clowns" are as popular now, likely because of real world killings, arrests, and vigilante actions during that time.
@@animestudios972 The movie might have been cool and all, but why the Banana Splits? They could have just left the show alone and invented something for the movie like Willy's Wonderland.
Showing my age, but did anyone else cut the cheapy record off of the back of a cereal box? I did, and it worked!
Yes!! Kept that record for a VERY long time too, all things considered
Alphabits . . . maybe
Your not alone... it was a weird time to grow up...then again aren't they all? Remember the cheap battery operated game operation... how many nervous broken down serial killers did that one spawn?
Heck ya!!! And the Archies!!!!. Great
And the circle on the cereal box record that said "place coin here" to keep the record from slipping.
I remember watching these in black n white as my Dad didn't want a colour TV as the TV licence was more money! I wish we could go back to those days again.
Sounded a wise man .. british tv license is still a waste of money to this day .
@@stevedavis6879 it is, esp when my son hogs it all day, every day!
@@michellegower1259 haha nothing on these days anyway. You tube is best these days 🙂
@@michellegower1259 you need to have a word with him or put his lodgings up haha
@@stevedavis6879 good idea but will be like trying to get blood out of a stone.
This brings back memories seening it on Boomerang back when it was still considered good this may have been a 70s show but I grew up watching it in the early 2000s on Boomerang.
Snorky is the cutest character.
*change my mind.*
No bc wb made a killer outa dem nuts
@@ARTTHAS13 snorky was the only character who isn't evil in the movie
@@eidolomere snorky was not even evil
Yes, but Bingo is the best character
@@ElLucas1987 fax
I'm literally crying right now bc this brings so much memories
it will be destroyed soon becaue of the horror movie of them comming up :>
I'm literally crying because Warner Bros. had the nerve to turn these guys into homicidal animatronics for a TV movie.
Well my bruddah you should be screaming now
Melvin Rubio
Now you’ll be crying for a different reason
Saturday mornings as a kid watching this on television! Great days!
My dad took me and my brothers to see the Splits LIVE when I was a sprout. I thought they were real until I was 6.
This is the greatest theme song for a kids show ever written!
