Unga Bunga



I've been watching a lot on the Boomerang Network and saw an episode of "Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels" the other day. I was a huge Captain Caveman fan as a kid when he appeared on the Flinstones' show in the early '80s. Unga Bunga! One of the first drawings I gave my dad was one of Captain Caveman yelling his name and fluffing out, as it was his battle cry in the cartoon. It's still up on his bathroom mirror. More Hanna-Barbera stuff to come.

    I had forgotten about him! I used to think he was fantastic. Unga Bunga!

    Hey Hsin-

    Yes, Cavey is a classic. One of Mel Blanc's finest voiced characters (complete with a goofy laugh). And a club that contained everything. One of my favorites indeed.
