Status: Partially Found

The Beatles Cartoon (More known as The Beatles Saturday Morning Cartoons) was an American animated TV series created by Al Brodax and based on the British Rockband of the same name. It ran from 1965 to 1969 (only 1965 to 1967 was first to run; later transmissions were reruns) with a total of 39 episodes, 3 seasons and 78 Singalongs. The series was a historical milestone as the first weekly television series to feature animated versions of real, living people. This show was more known for its "So bad it's good" nature, fanbase, and lore on the website "Tumblr".

Description

After every episode, The Beatles usually had bumpers or skits (short bridges from commercial to feature) that had a storyline; Season 1 had 5 parts and until Season 2 and 3's bumpers were self-contained comedy sketches. Those segments had a duration of 30, 20, or 10 seconds and they were animated in Mexico City by "Los Dibujos Animados".

The sketches frequently feature George and Ringo (mostly Ringo) trying a hobby, or an adventure which ones of them end on trouble or lucky. Other sketches featured John and Paul getting into madcap situations. On few season 1 skits, it involves John or Paul helping George and Ringo on a hoddy or madcap situation; which of course one of them ended injured or on trouble; while season 2-3 features Ringo (frequently George) on madcaps situations that always let him injured for it.

Status

The Skits from season 1 are available incomplete with Japanese Audio, and 2 of them are lost, the skiing segment is the only complete skit and is available on YouTube while season 2-3 Self-Contained Bumpers has partially found except for 2 ones available in Japanese Audio as well.
