TelevisionThe characters were used on the Hallmark Channel in November and December 2009 and 2010 as part of a special movie night. This is the first time that Hallmark Cards and Hallmark Channel have collaborated.[2] On November 25, 2011, Hallmark, for the CBS network, made a Christmas TV special with the Hoops&Yoyo characters, entitled Hoops & Yoyo Ruin Christmas.[3] On October 26, 2012, Hallmark aired Hoops & Yoyo's Haunted Halloween. AlbumsIn December 2005, Hallmark released a Hoops&Yoyo holiday CD entitled Jingle Jingle Wiggle. It features both vocal and instrumental music. All of the music is played by Yoyo. The CD also features the animated short "A Bongo Christmas." They have also released a CD entitled One Donut a Day! on July 1, 2007. It includes 19 short songs. Banned graduation cardIn 2010, Hallmark pulled an astronomy-themed Hoops&Yoyo "talking" graduation card off shelves after members of the Los Angeles, California chapter of the NAACP claimed that it contained a racist message. The greeting card contained the words: "And you black holes -- you're so ominous! And you planets? Watch your back!" However, the Los Angeles NAACP members felt that the card was offensive because "black holes" sounded like "black whores" in the recording. Hallmark denied that the card was in any way racist, but pulled it from its stores nonetheless.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.animationmagazine.net/article/10348|title= Hallmark’s Furry Flash Friends|last=Milligan|first=Mercedes|date=2009-07-24|work=Animation Magazine|accessdate=2009-10-28}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/365500-Hallmark_Channel_Greeting_Cards_Get_Together_on_Screen.php|title=Hallmark Channel, Greeting Cards Get Together on Screen Animated greeting card characters to host channel's "Countdown to Christmas"|last=Eggerton|first=John|date=2009-10-19|work=Broadcasting & Cable|accessdate=2009-10-28}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.hallmark.com/online/hoopsandyoyo/ruin-christmas |title=Hoops & Yoyo Ruin Christmas |last=Stone |first=Matthew |date=2011-11-07 |work=Hallmark Cards, Inc. |accessdate=2011-11-07 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111115212106/http://www.hallmark.com/online/hoopsandyoyo/ruin-christmas/ |archivedate=2011-11-15 |df= }} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.ocregister.com/entertainment/card-251715-graduation-hallmark.html|title=Is this Hallmark graduation card racist?}} External links
