Buford and the Galloping Ghost

1 9 7 8 – 1 9 7 9 (USA)
13 x 30 minute episodes

This NBC cartoon series – a spin-off from Yogi’s Space Race – featured two distinct 15-minute stories.

The Buford Files starred Buford the bloodhound and his two human teenage assistants, Cindy Mae and her older brother, Woody.

The threesome battled crimes in the Fenokee Swampland of Pendike County, although their work was often hampered by the bungling efforts of Sheriff Muletrain Pettigrew and his overeager but dimwitted Deputy Goofer McGee (an obvious Gomer Pyle soundalike).

The Galloping Ghost featured grouchy old Fenwick Fuddy – owner of the Fuddy Duddy Dude Ranch – and his cowgirl assistants, Wendy and Rita.

They found their lives constantly complicated by Nugget Nose, the feisty ghost of a diminutive Old West prospector that haunted the ranch.

Whenever the girls were in trouble, Wendy would summon Nugget Nose by rubbing on her special gold nugget necklace.
