In almost all of the older Hanna-Barbera cartoon shorts, the main character always had a sidekick. For example "Dastardly & Muttley", "Secret Squirrel & Morocco", That one hippo character and his monkey friend, et cetera. What was the purpose of the cartoonists giving the protagonists sidekicks besides for humorous contrast?
Why did the old Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters always have sidekicks?
