Popeye and Son is an American animated comedy series based on the Popeye comic strip created by E.C. Segar and published by King Features Syndicate. Jointly produced by Hanna-Barbera and King Features subsidiary King Features Entertainment, the series aired for one season of thirteen episodes on CBS from September 19 to December 12, 1987. It is a follow-up to The All New Popeye Hour. Due to Jack Mercer's death in 1984, Maurice LaMarche voiced Popeye, while much of the cast of The All New Popeye Hour reprised their respective roles, with the exception of Daws Butler. However, Nancy Cartwright, who was trained by Butler, voiced Woody in the series.




Overview


Now married, Popeye and his longtime girlfriend-turned-wife Olive Oyl have a son named Popeye Jr. (or simply "Junior"), who has inherited Popeye's ability to gain superhuman strength from eating spinach; much to his father's disappointment, however, Junior hates the taste of spinach (instead, he prefers hamburgers, like Wimpy), although he eats spinach anyway should any trouble come his way. Popeye's longtime rival Bluto also has a wife, Lizzie, and a son, Tank. Like old times, Popeye and Bluto possess an intense rivalry, something that also happens between their sons.

List of episodes






Reception


In 2014, including it in an article about twelve 1980s cartoons that supposedly did not deserve remembrance, io9 was largely critical of the series, noting that it did not utilize the conventions established by the theatrical Popeye short films.




Home media


In late 2008, Warner Home Video planned to release four Popeye and Son episodes (8 cartoons) on DVD. (Volume One, released earlier in 2008, contained episodes of the previous Hanna-Barbera Popeye series, The All New Popeye Hour.) As of 2024, the complete series has yet to come out on DVD. In the 1990s, several episodes were released on VHS. The series is available to watch on NBCUniversal's streaming service, Peacock.
