This weeks theme = “What was your favorite t.v. show when you were a kid?”
The 70's weren't the best time for tv shows, but the Saturday morning kids shows were pretty cool.
One of my favorites was Land of the Lost.
It was far fetched, it was a combination of prehistoric and futuristic.
You had a modern day family trapped in some weird world where dinosaurs were and also these strange creatures from the future called Sleestacks.
The original series from 1974-1977, was campy and cheesy, but fun.
They tried to redo the show again in the late 90's, with a family in a jeep. But it sucked.
The show never had an official ending, but the whole series can be purchased on dvd now.
I don't know how kids today would react to it, it was really low graphics and kids today expect everything to be mind blowing.
We watched it and we liked it.

I remember that show! Yes, it was cheesy, but I loved it, too.
I loved all of that cheesy Sid & Marty Kroft stuff. H.R. Pufnstuf and the Banana Splits...remember those?
I'm glad to see that these are out on DVD...I will have to Netflix those now!

I loved Captain Kangaroo with all the golf balls, Three, Two, One Contact on PBS and Merry Melodies (I guess their not PC enough for today's kids)

Oopsie, I forgot about all my carnivals again this week. Maybe it's not too late for some of them.
