Romper Room, of course.

But I was ON Merry Mailman, with Ray Heatherton (Joey Heatherton's [remember HER?] father).

And I remember Winky Dink, the show that you drew on the TV screen with, and Mighty Mouse Playhouse and Andy's Gang (with Andy Devine)...

Yes, I remember. I thought the dad was so cute.

Was it on either right before or after HR Puff N Stuff?

I was so young my memories are pretty vague. I barely even remember what Bob looked like, let alone his demeanor.

One more vague memory I have from there, is being in a GIANT elevator with dozens of other audience members before the show.

Did that really happen or am I just adding memories to my head?

Tell me, tell me, tell me do.
Magic mirror, tell me today.
Did all my friends have fun at play?"

I remember him, but was he on Wonderama? On that, I don't have a clue.

Never was a big fan of the Stooges (or Abbott & Costello), but I did like watching The Little Rascals/?Our Gang? on Sunday mornings with my dad.

Default Zoom Freak Here

Remember,

Boston Mass, 02134? And Ubbie Dubbie? The striped T-shirts and Fannee Doolee?

I think it was on between the Electric Company and Julia Child.

I sent away for the zoom cards and collected them. They had a zoomer's picture on the front and a how-to from the show on the back.



YouTube - Zoom episode 1 part 1


YouTube - Fannee Doolee


YouTube - Zoom - Bernadette


YouTube - Zoom episode 1 part 4

I can still speak the language if I concentrate and I can do the Bernadette arm trick too!!
Loved those Boston accents. God bless PBS!!
