What happens

High Noon Toons was a three-hour programming block of cartoons hosted by two cowboy hand puppets named Haas and Lil' Jo (a Bonanza reference) shown on Cartoon Network in the mid-1990s. The series was made by Matt Thompson and Adam Reed, who later went on to create adult-themed cartoon series such as Sealab 2021 and Frisky Dingo for Adult Swim and Archer for FX. Often the show had special themes, such as "Quick Draw McGraw: Pure Mustang". Haas and Lil' Jo also hosted Cartoon Network's "Spring Break '95", with the two on a beach setting with bikini-clad Barbie dolls, and which showed Spring Break-related cartoons. They also hosted the Thanksgiving Cartoon Parade in 1995. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
