Hanna-Barbera Productions, Inc. ( HAN-ə bar-BAIR-ə, - BAR-bər-ə), also variously known as H-B Enterprises, H-B Production Co., and Hanna-Barbera Cartoons, Inc., was an American animation studio and production company founded on July 7, 1957 by the creators of Tom and Jerry and former animation directors for the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer cartoon studio William Hanna and Joseph Barbera.
It was a prominent presence in American animation for five decades with a variety of animated series, including Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear, The Flintstones, Top Cat, The Jetsons, Jonny Quest, Wacky Races, Scooby-Doo and The Smurfs and was awarded with eight Emmy Awards and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Taft Broadcasting bought the company in 1966 and retained ownership until 1991.
By the 1980s, as the profitability of Saturday-morning cartoons was eclipsed by weekday afternoon syndication, Hanna-Barbera's fortunes had declined. In 1991, Turner Broadcasting System purchased it from Great American Broadcasting (renamed from Taft in 1988), and used its back catalog as programming for Cartoon Network. Turner Broadcasting later merged with Time Warner (now WarnerMedia) in 1996.
After Hanna died in 2001, Hanna-Barbera was absorbed into Warner Bros. Animation. Since the studio's closure, Warner Bros. has continued to produce new programming and material based on Hanna-Barbera's classic properties, with their logo still occasionally appearing in select projects.
