The Adventures of Robin Hoodnik is an animated television movie produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. Broadcasting on the ABC television network on November 4, 1972, it was part of The ABC Saturday Superstar Movie series.[1] The special featured an all-animal cast in a retelling of Robin Hood.[2] The show premiered just a year before Walt Disney Productions released their theatrical animated version of the story. Nineteen years later, in 1991, Hanna-Barbera produced another television adaptation of the Robin Hood legend, Young Robin Hood, their international co-production with CINAR, Crayon Animation and France Animation.
