Inch High, Private Eye

Inch High, Private Eye

"Inch High, Private Eye" was a 1973 Saturday morning cartoon produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions.

The show originally ran from September 8, 1973 to August 31, 1974 on NBC Saturday morning for 13 episodes. Since the 1980s it has enjoyed resurgence on cable television, in repeats on "The USA Cartoon Express", Cartoon Network and Boomerang.

History

The titular character of "Inch High, Private Eye" was a miniature detective (literally one inch high) . Inch often enlisted the help of his niece Lori (sometimes written "Laurie"), her muscle-bound friend Gator, and their dog Braveheart to help solve mysteries. Their primary mode of transportation was the Hushmobile, a streamlined car that made virtually no noise while being driven, making it perfect for following criminals unnoticed. The small Inch worked for The Finkerton Detective Agency (a wordplay lampoon of The Pinkerton Detective Agency), where the boss (Mr. Finkerton) constantly dreamed of the day that he would fire him.
