What can you say about this mid 60's Hanna Barbera series? They're bears, and they're hillbillies. A wordplay on 'The Beverley Hillbillies' no doubt. A family of four, the Ruggs patriarch is Paw Rugg, who has a penchant for discharging firearms at the slightest opportunity, and whose speech is practically indecipherable apart from his frequent guffaws (usually after he's just discharged a firearm). Maw Rugg is somewhat more sane and considerably more legible. Young son Shag is probably the brightest of the lot, though still pretty credulous. He's inclined to rescue Paw from his own stupidity. There is also a teenage daughter, Floral, who serves roughly the same function as Judy in The Jetsons. Created by: Hanna-Barbera
