Malachi and Friends (season 1)

The first season of Malachi and Friends, created by Mala Miles and produced at Mala Miles Productions and Hanna-Barbera Productions, originally aired on CBS in the United States from September 12 to December 5, 1970, and consisted of twelve episodes.

Miles created the title character for an Mala Miles Productions mascot series in the early 1960s, and later reluctantly pitched the series to CBS as a Saturday morning cartoon. The network gave the staff a large amount of creative freedom, with the writers targeting both children and adults.

The complete season DVD was released by Shout! Factory on December 14, 2006, and featured all thirteen episodes and an assortment of bonus features.
