Review by g1mez
Originally part of the Banana Splits show, The Arabian Knights later was seen in syndication (c. 1977) before disappearing off radar. Typical HB adventure ‘toon, a strong guy, a magic using guy, a beautiful princess who needed rescuing and the token ‘freak’, in this case, a burro that became a lightning-spewing dervish if you pulled it’s tail. Set in Arabia, camels, Sultans and the like populate the landscape. Stock HB voice talent (I think they employed about 4 people to do voices in their toons in the ’60s) Specifics elude me as it’s been 25+ years since I’ve seen it, but I do recall it being entertaining to me at the time.
