"Space Ghost and Dino Boy" is an animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. It first aired on CBS from September 10, 1966 to September 7, 1968. The series comprised two unrelated segments, "Space Ghost" and "Dino Boy in the Lost Valley". The show itself is called simply "Space Ghost" (as denoted by its opening title). The "Space Ghost and Dino Boy" name is used in official records to differentiate it from the Cartoon Network's late-night talk show "Space Ghost Coast to Coast".

The series was created by Alex Toth and produced and directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera.

"Space Ghost"

Space Ghost, along with teenaged sidekicks Jan and Jace and their monkey Blip, fights villains in outer space.

Voice cast

* Gary Owens – Space Ghost
* Ginny Tyler – Jan
* Tim Matheson – Jace
* Don Messick – Blip, Zorak, Sisto
* Keye Luke – Brak

"Dino Boy in the Lost Valley"

Dino Boy is a young boy called Todd who parachuted out of a crashing plane with his parents still on board. He lands in an unknown South American valley where dinosaurs, cavemen and saber-tooth tigers somehow have survived. Dino Boy then meets the caveman Ugh (who saved Dino Boy from a saber-tooth tiger when he first arrived) and his pet dinosaur Bronto who become his friends in the episodes to come.

The Dino Boy segments were similar in many ways to the 1960 film "Dinosaurus!", which also features a young boy befriending a caveman and a "Brontosaurus".

Ugh appeared in a Cartoon Network Promotional Bumper with Edd from Ed, Edd n Eddy.

Voice Cast

* Johnny Carson (not the talk show host) – Todd (Dino Boy)
* Mike Road – Ugh
* Don Messick – Bronto
