Шаблон:Infobox television Devlin is an American animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and broadcast for 16 episodes on ABC from September 7 to December 21, 1974, with reruns airing until September 1976.[1] The series, inspired by the popularity of motorcycle daredevil Evel Knievel, featured a stunt motorcyclist with a traveling circus named Ernie Devlin and his siblings Tod and Sandy.[2] It was one of Hanna-Barbera's few dramatic series.

The original title for the show was Wild Wheels, and the title character was "Dare" Devlin. Concerned about potential criticism that the show glorified dangerous activity, ABC nixed the title, changed the character's name to Ernie, and mandated the regular presentation of safety tips.[3]
