Synopsis
The Beatles was an American animated television series featuring the fanciful and musical misadventures of the extraordinarily popular British rock band of the same name. It ran from 1965 to 1969 on ABC in the USA. Each episode has a name of a Beatles song, so the history is based on its lyrics and it is also played sometime in the episode.

The series consisted of short animated stories that essentially were intended to set up the visual illustration of Beatles songs that are played in their entirety. In addition, there were sing along sequences with simpler imagery complementing the full lyrics of particular songs. The series became notorious for its static depiction of the band in their early moptop and suit look as depicted in the live action film, A Hard Day's Night, despite the fact that the band moved beyond it during the series' run.

The Beatles had nothing to do with the series' production beyond the use of their music recordings. (American actor Paul Frees did the voices of John and George while Lance Percival, of the Carry On series, did the more authentic sounding voices of Paul and Ringo.) In fact, the band disdained the series for its poor quality which discouraged them from participating significantly in the later animated feature film, Yellow Submarine. Only when the band saw and were impressed by the film's finished footage did they realize the film was a more ambitious creation

The Beatles TV Cartoons 1965-69



The series consisted of short and "witty" animated stories that essentially were intended to set up the visual illustration of Beatles songs that are played in their entirety. In addition, there were sing along sequences with simpler imagery complementing the full lyrics of particular songs.
The series became notorious for its static depiction of the band in their early moptop and suit look as depicted in the live action film A Hard Day's Night, even though the band moved beyond it during the series' run. There was also the occasional continuity mistake. The IMDB claims that in some scenes, the left-handed McCartney was depicted playing his bass guitar right-handed.
The band members themselves had nothing to do with the series' production beyond the use of their music recordings. American actor Paul Frees did the voices of John and George while Lance Percival (of the Carry On series) did the more authentic sounding voices of Paul and Ringo. In fact, the band disdained the series (it is reported, however, that the band members enjoyed the cartoons in later years), which discouraged them from participating significantly in the later animated feature film, Yellow Submarine. Only when the band saw and were impressed by the Yellow Submarine's finished footage did they realize the film was a more ambitious creation. As a result, they agreed to appear in a short live action epilogue for it. In fact, Yellow Submarine producer Al Brodax and director George Dunning were involved in the production both of the animated series as well as Yellow Submarine.
Initially the open credits theme was a guitar riff from A Hard Day's Night segueing into Can't Buy Me Love, over a cartoon sequence of the lads running down a fire escape, echoing a scene in A Hard Day's Night. The second season's opening theme was Help!, while the third season's theme was And Your Bird Can Sing, over a different cartoon sequence.
Most of the episodes of the series were produced by Artransa Park Studios in Sydney, Australia, with a handful of episodes made in Hollywood, with a crew supervised by veteran cartoon writer John W. Dunn.
