Editing Gerald McBoing-Boing (section)

===Sequels===

UPA produced three follow-up shorts: ''Gerald McBoing Boing's Symphony'' (1953), ''How Now Boing Boing'' (1954), and ''Gerald McBoing! Boing! on Planet Moo'' (1956), an [[Academy Awards|Academy Award]] nominee. The second and third films maintained the Dr. Seuss-style rhyming narration, but were not based on his work. The final film abandoned this approach.

All four ''Gerald McBoing Boing'' shorts were released in 1980 on home video under the title ''Columbia Pictures Presents Cartoon Adventures Starring Gerald McBoing Boing''. The shorts were presented in sub-par quality, especially ''Planet Moo'', which was squeezed to fit the CinemaScope frame to standard TV screen size. It was reissued in 1985 as part of RCA/Columbia Pictures Home Video's "Magic Window" series of children's videotapes and went out of print in 1995.

The second short was included as a special feature on Sony's 2001 DVD release of ''[[The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T]]''. All but the second were included in the special features of the two-disc special edition of the DVD ''[[Hellboy (2004 film)|Hellboy]]'' (released on July 27, 2004), as the cartoon can be seen playing on TV monitors in the background in several scenes. In January 2006, Sony re-issued the four shorts on DVD, featuring cleaned-up prints and all presented in their original aspect ratio.
