Harlem Globetrotters is a Saturday morning cartoon produced by Hanna-Barbera and CBS Productions, featuring animated versions of players from the basketball team of the same name.Broadcast from September 12, 1970, to October 16, 1971, on CBS Saturday Morning, repeated from September 10, 1972, to May 20, 1973, on CBS Sunday Morning, and later re-run from February 4 to September 2, 1978, on NBC as The Go-Go Globetrotters—a two-hour show that also incorporated the animated shorts of a show of the previous year, The CB Bears. (The theme song of the new show hybrid-ed alternate versions of the theme songs of both previous shows.)

The show team members featured fictionalized versions of historical Globetrotters Meadowlark Lemon, Freddie "Curly" Neal, Hubert "Geese" Ausbie, J.C. "Gip" Gipson, Bobby Joe Mason, and Paul "Pablo" Robertson, all in animated form, alongside their fictional bus driver and manager Granny and their dog mascot Dribbles.The series worked to a formula where the team travels somewhere and typically get involved in a local conflict that leads to one of the Globetrotters proposing a basketball game to settle the issue. To ensure the Globetrotters' defeat, the villains rig the contest; however, before the second half of the contest, the team always finds a way to even the odds, become all but invincible, and win the game.
