Does anyone remember H. and R. Puffinstuff?

Question

I loved that show. You. How about Land of the Lost. Any other old kids shows you can think of?

You guys are awesome.

Answer 1

You know they were on drugs when they came up with that show. This one time at band camp Sid and Marty Kroft must fave got baked and puffed th mighty dragon while dreaming about talking mushrooms.

Lyrics:
H.R. Pufnstuf who's your friend when things get rough
H.R. Pufnstuf can't do a little because you can't do enough
Once upon a summertime just a dream from yesterday
A boy and his magic golden flute heard a boat from off the bay,
Come and play with me Jimmy
Come and play with me
And I will take you on a trip far across the sea
But the boat belonged to a kooky old Witch
Who had in mind the flute to snitch
From her Vroom Broom in the sky
She watched her plans materialize
She waved her wand -- the beautiful boat was gone
The skies grew dark, the sea grew rough
And the boat sailed on and on and on and on and on and on
But Pufnstuf was watching too and knew exactly what to do
He saw the Witch's boat attack and as the boy was fighting back
He called his Rescue Racer Crew as often they'd rehearsed
And off to save the boy they flew
But who would get there first?
But now the boy had washed ashore Puff arrived to save the day
Which made the Witch so mad and sore she shook her fist and screamed away
H.R. Pufnstuf who's your friend when things get rough
H.R. Pufnstuf can't do a little because you can't do enough
H.R. Pufnstuf he's your friend when things get rough
H.R. Pufnstuf can't do a little because you can't do enough

Personally, I think the same thing about Super Mario Brothers, a little too much plumber's crack and the dancing mushrooms and dragon's return.

I always thought of myself as more of the cartoon man. Hong Kong Phooey and the Groovey Ghoulies.

Answer 2

OMG. Yes. I love those shows. H. R Puffinstuff had Witchie Poo as the bad lady! Those shows were awesome. Just thinking of them puts a smile on my face. I still remember the music and part of the words to the song...lol. I used to like Ultraman, also.

Answer 3

H.R. Puffinstuff was a good show to bad it was short lived only 17 episodes.

Land of the Lost was kinda dumb back in the 70's i liked the 90's version with dinosars and the dalorien (i think thats how you spell it aka the back to the future car*)

Answer 5

I loved The New Zoo Review, with Henrietta Hippo and Freddy the Frog!! I also loved The Magic Garden and Romper Room. Once I wrote a letter to Mr. Doo Bee and he sent me a post card!!!

Answer 6

Captain Kangaroo
Howdy Doody
Ding Song School

Answer 7

Yea there's an old rumour that he was named for a drug reference: puffin' stuff. Even the song said "you cant do a little cuz you cant do enuff". What really bothers me is HR's creators , Sid and Marty Croft, sued McDonalds because they said Mayor McCheese was a rip off of HR. They made money and McCheese went the way of every other politician-hamburger caught in a scandal- they ran his buns out of office!

What the hell was that Chacka thing on
L.Of L.?!?!

Answer 8

Yes, I liked Puffinstuff. Zoom was another show I watched back in the day. Live action kid's shows seem to be out of fashion these days.

Answer 9

Yes, I love both of those shows

Answer 10
