Popeye and Son is an animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera and King Features Syndicate, and aired for one season (1987-1988) on CBS.
It is the third television series to feature characters from the Elzie Crisler Segar comic strip Popeye. It is also the final Popeye series from Hanna-Barbera. In this show, Popeye and his long-time girlfriend Olive Oyl are married and have a son named Popeye Junior. "Junior" has inherited Popeye's ability to gain superhuman strength from eating spinach; however, Junior hates the taste of spinach, much to his father's disappointment. Popeye's rival Bluto has a wife of his own and they also have a son named Tank. Maurice LaMarche supplied the voice of Popeye in this series, succeeding the late Jack Mercer in that role.
It is also the first set of Popeye cartoons that were produced, since Mercer's death in 1984.
After 58 years of Popeye and Bluto fighting over Olive Oyl, they've all decided to finally settle down and start families. Popeye and Olive got married and had a son who hates spinach. Bluto also got married and had a son who's a bully to Popeye's kid. Wimpy has also started his own burger chain and tries his best to refrain from eating his own burgers. Written by Dylan Self
