YouTube has a scene from an unsold, but still, with 6 minutes of footage, prime-time family sitcom, a expanded "Brady Bunch" if you will, "Duffy's Dozen".

I Don't exactly remember knowing if Mr.Duffy had a name, but the wife is a blonde named Alice (Janet Waldo, using her normal "Judy Jetson voice'), the oldest daughter an apparent 14 year old named Barbie (also possibly Waldo), then there is a son whose name I forgot (a very good, unusually wise-cracking Casey Kasem), and 10 other kids named (acording to John Stephenson's open narration over the titles, Hildy, Zero,Corky, among others, then the big hairy Brady-esque sheepdog who adopted THEM--Thirteen. All of them are in a camper).

Looks pretty good.

Never heard of it. It's not mentioned in the Hanna-Barbera book I've
got.

I can't watch YouTube (far too slow via a dial-up connection, but
here's the link for anyone else who wants to watch it:


There's also these two links from the Blogspot page "Toon Snoot".

I have seen the show, and it was another group of HB early 'seventies social 'toon series, like Houndcays, The Barkleys, et al, in Wbqc 25.

"Duffy's Dozen" doesn't appear anywhere in the book "The Art of
Hanna-Barbera ... probably because it the series never happened since
it was "unsold". The only shows listed for starting in 1971 are
"Pebbles and Bamm Bamm" (CBS), "Help! It's the Hair Bear Bunch!" (CBS),
and "The Funky Phantom" (ABC).

"Duffy's Dozen" does have a couple of Wikia.com pages though:
