Also Brazilian boxer Adilson Rodriguez named himself Magilla after the cartoon. The description of the character Magill Gorilla (voiced by Allan Melvin) - anthropomorphic gorilla, who spends his time languishing in the window of the pet store Melvin Peebles, eating bananas and draining the finances of the businessman. Peebles (voiced by Howard Morris and then Dock Messik) significantly reduced the price of Magilla, but Magilla was invariably bought only for a short time, usually by some thieves who needed a gorilla to break into a bank or an advertising agency, looking for a mascot for their new product. Customers always end up returning Magilla, forcing Peebles to return their money. Magilla often finished episodes with his catchphrase We'll Try Again next week. Many of Hannah-Barbera's animal characters were dressed in human accessories; Magilla Gorilla wore a bow tie, suspender shorts and an unfinished derby hat. The only client really interested in getting trouble-prone Magigly was a little girl named Ogi (voiced by Gene Vander Phil and the uttering of Oh Gee!). During the theme of the cartoon song, We have a gorilla for sale, she asks, hopefully, how much is this gorilla in the window? (turn to the old standard, (How much) Is The Dog in the window?), but she's never been able to convince her parents to let her keep Magilla. In Yiddish, megilla is a long tedious or embroidered account, from Hebrew megillah, a story written in a scroll. In one episode, Magilla says: Such a megilla over a gorilla. Brazilian world boxing champion Adilson Rodriguez received, accepted and recognized by the public as Maguila, in reference to the cartoon.
