Question about the 1985 schedule. Is Heathcliff the same program as the syndicated cartoon Heathcliff and the Catillac Cats? I thought the only station that ran that show in NYC was WPIX.

 

[Corky Marlowe]

It was actually Heathcliff the seagull from the Red Skelton show. He got his own animated series after he split from Gertrude. 😉

There was also Heathcliff & Dingbat (Heathcliff & Marmaduke in its second season). Heathcliff and Marmaduke sounds like the worst double bill of all time. You might as well throw in Snuffy Smith while you're at it.
