Buford and the Galloping Ghost was a 30-minute Saturday morning animated series spin-off of Yogi's Space Race, produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions from February 3, 1979 to September 1, 1979 on NBC. It contained the following segments:

  • The Buford Files
  • The Galloping Ghost

The two shows originally aired as segments on Yogi's Space Race from September 9, 1978 to January 27, 1979 on NBC. Following the cancellation of Yogi's Space Race, both series were then repackaged as one half-hour show.

Buford and the Galloping Ghost has been rebroadcast in reruns on USA Cartoon Express, Cartoon Network and Boomerang.

[edit] The Buford Files

Buford is a smart but sleepy bloodhound who lives deep in the murky swamp county of Fenokee. He teams up with two teenagers, Cindy Mae and her older brother Woody, and the trio solves confusing mysteries that baffle Sheriff Muletrain Pettigrew and his overeager, but dimwitted deputy Goofer McGee. Buford's abilities are expanded with ears that revolve like radar dishes, and his nose responds to clues like a geiger counter; he also howls his heart out when the moon comes out and has a running feud with a karate-wacking raccoon.

[edit] The Galloping Ghost

Nugget Nose is a short ghost prospector who finds adventure riding his invisible horse and is also a guardian to Wendy and Rita, two cowgirls who work at the Fuddy Dude Ranch whose owner is grouchy old Fenwick Fuddy. Nugget is always battling Fuddy and takes delight in harassing him in odd and humorous ways. Whenever the girls are in trouble, Wendy summons Nugget Nose by rubbing on her special nugget necklace.
