episode 258: Hanna Barbera‘s Godzilla: Interview With Writer/Developer Duane Poole
We are joined for a look behind the scenes of Hanna Barbera's Godzilla animated series with the show's writer/developer/story editor Duane Poole! For over 40 years, Duane has written for TV, film and theater and has worked with iconic properties including Scooby Doo, the Smurfs, Super-Friends, Love Boat, and our favorite King of the Monsters. We chat with him about his prolific career, Hanna Barbera in the 70s, adapting Godzilla for TV, the changes made to Godzilla for the show, Scooby Doo, his transitions from animation to live action TV to film, his love of the theater, and more! We even manage to dispel some common rumors along the way. Relax and join the conversation!
