Remember the classic live action kids' shows back in the 70s?
Like Lidsville, H. R. Pufnstuf, Wonderbug, Land of the Lost, Dr. Shrinker, Monster Squad, SHAZAM!, ( Isis, Electra Woman and Dynagirl= three bonafide hotties of the 70s ), The Bugaloos, and too many others to think of....
Man, those were the days.......Get up at about 8am and watch these shows for at least 4-5 hours......
For those interested, I found a website that has a lot of info on these shows:
www.70slivekidvid.com
Anyone else remember those shows?

I loved HR Pufnstuff, Lidsville and Land of the Lost. I also liked the New Zoo Review, but don't think that was on Saturday mornings. I think it was on during weekday mornings, along with Captain Kangaroo, Bozo and Mr. Dressup
I used to come home for lunch during school so I could watch Kimba, the White Lion. Sometimes I pretended to lose my lunch or lunch money just so I could go home and watch it..lol.

YES! That was my favorite show back in the day! They used to show it late at night on Noggin but they stopped a few years ago.

OMG, this is the day for feeling old all right.
But, you guys didn't get up until 8:00????
7:00 every Saturday morning and watched cartoons until about noon. We had a LazyBoy recliner couch in this oh so lovely gold color.
Now I have the theme song from the Bugaloos stuck in my head.
