Young Samson & GoliathRating: 2.6/5 (with 3 votes)
Twenty-six 12-minute episodes of the series were produced, six of which no longer exist. Samson & Goliath cartoons were paired with other General Mills-sponsored shows such as Tennessee Tuxedo and Go Go Gophers to form a full half-hour for their original network broadcasts. Young Samson was later shown in syndication with The Space Kidettes as The Space Kidettes and Young Samson, distributed by The Program Exchange. The rights were acquired by Warner Bros. Television Distribution when it became rights owner of the Hanna-Barbera catalog. The series was the only Dancer Fitzgerald Sample-sponsored cartoon to be outsourced to Hanna-Barbera; the agency's in-house studio, Gamma Productions, had closed shortly before the series began. (It was also the only cartoon in the DFS portfolio not to be created either by Jay Ward Productions or by Total Television.) ()

#1 | 09/09/1967The Curse of Monatabu
Samson and Goliath are visiting a tropical island with an active volcano and happen upon a recently decimated village. Samson is informed by one of the villagers that once, long ago, an evil witch doctor was sentenced to death by the villagers and, before jumping into the volcano, he cursed the village, saying his spirit would return to avenge him. Ever since that day, at the same time every year, a giant green lizard-looking animal comes and destroys the village. This is deemed to be the spirit of the witch doctor carrying out his curse—a.k.a. the curse of Monatabu. Samson decides to investigate this with Goliath.
