Sam Bassett: Hound for Hire (1963)

1 season

Produced in 1963, "Sam Bassett, Hound for Hire" is a quirky, bizarre and hilarious series of short cartoons that almost defy description. Sam Bassett, a Bogart-esque Bassett Hound and his partner, a mute Chihuahua named Chapultepec (who "talks" by playing his mariachi guitar) attempt to solve mysteries that somehow usually involve psychotherapy.
