Apparently, there isn't as much love out there for Snagglepuss as I originally thought! After an impression I did of him a few days back was greeted by confusion and blank stares I figured I had to include a little clip to let people see what they were missing. So, here it is...
Kind of an odd character, eh? A pink, erudite, and fussy lion in cuffs and collar? What the hell was the Hanna/Barbara team thinking!?!
Still, the results are pretty hilarious (he sounds to me like someone doing an especially bad impression of Bill Murray's character in Caddyshack), and how can you not love one of the more bizarre and funny signature catchphrases ever created: "Heavens to Murgatroid!"

Hate to break it to you, bub, but ol' Snagglepuss ends that clip by exclaiming, "Heavens to Betsy!" The elusive "Murgatroid" is nowhere to be found...
True, he doesn't always use it. But when he does? Oh me oh my, get ready to chuckle.
So true. This inspired me to look up some Snagglepuss clips on YouTube last night. I'd recommend watching "The Gangster's All Here" - there's a line about closets that will leave you in stitches.
Exit, stage left!
