LOS ANGELES -- Joe Barbera, half of the Hanna-Barbera animation team that produced such beloved cartoon characters as Tom and Jerry, Yogi Bear and the Flintstones, died Monday, a Warner Bros. spokesman said. He was 95.

Barbera died of natural causes at his home with his wife Sheila at his side, Warner Bros. spokesman Gary Miereanu said.

I think most people my age grew up watching Hanna-Barbera cartoons. Tom and Jerry was a favorite growing up.....I never really liked Yogi though. Anyway.... rose

The writer for Rocky and Bullwinkle died today as well. Chris Hayward created Dudley Do-Right. "Hayward contributed satire, wordplay and puns for "Rocky and His Friends," a witty cartoon that built a large adult following," excerpt from Yahoo. I loved those classic cartoons. Yogi and Boo-Boo, The Flinstones, Tom and Jerry. If you have Comcast, you can catch some of those on On Demand.

I prefer Tom and Jerry to Yogi as well. Scott Bradley's music on the T&J cartoons is the best!

Flintstones, Scooby Doo Batman and Robin, and dozen of more Hanna and Barbera are true legands of behind creating some awesome cartoons. RIP to the both of them now
