  • Channel Hop: Started in syndication in 1959, replayed on CBS for three years starting in 1963.
  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: Warner Bros. and Hanna-Barbera have only been able to release four episodes on DVD so far and currently has no plans for a complete release of the series, due to the original negatives being in poor condition and needing a lot of remastering work.
  • Referenced by...:
    • Howard Stern's producer Gary Dell'Abate misread Baba Looey's name as "Baba Booey", turning that into both his nickname and a catchphrase of Stern's fandom.
    • Whenever pro wrestlers like Jeff Jarrett use a guitar as a weapon, it is usually nicknamed El Kabong.
    • Princesses of the Pizza Parlor: Flora's magical lute demonstrates its Morph Weapon quality when she says "El Kabong!"
  • What Could Have Been: There have been several attempts to revive Quick Draw McGraw for a new audience but every attempt to do so has been shot down by Warner Bros.. These included a spaghetti western series by Jorge GutiĆ©rrez, a movie that only has one existing poster, a 90s TV special that never made it past the concept art, and a TV special in the same vein as The Flintstones: On the Rocks.
