    I never thought any of the shows were drug related. People just need to be so hateful for some reason. I have a magazine article about Alice in Wonderland. It explains in detail how it is a place of a psychiatrist’s dreams! Each character represents a specific psychosis. My opinion: people hate to be caught dreaming or wishing.

    Sometimes we'd turn down the sound and make up our own dialogue, or just make rude noises to go with the hat characters flapping their mouths.

    LOVED Lidsville in about 2014 “TeleToon Retro” a spin off from the Canadian Cartoon Network “TeleToon”- picked up a ton of Hannah Barbara shows. They had Flintstones, Jetsons, Lidsville and aired Banana Splits. All amazing

    Considering how Charles Nelson Reilly antagonized Butch Patrick (aka Eddie Munster) in Lidsville, I ponder how things would've play out if Fred Gwynne had been a guest panelist on Match Game, where CNR was a regular.

    I remember the Krofft stuff being rereleased and aired as a kid, my dad was nostalgic and I enjoyed it like new. Later, I hunted down the dvds re-releases and I was doing a lot of acid and had what was easily one of the best summers in my life and I introduced it to a bunch of new people who became fans too.

    It was CHARLES NELSON REILLY, not Charles Reilly; he always performed under his full name; he started out in theater; was on Broadway, in the 50’s and 60’s, and by the 70’s had become a perennial face on TV, guesting on several game shows, most notably MATCH GAME; he also donned a giant banana costume to play BIG BANANA in a series of commercials as the spokesman for BIC ink pins; after LIDSVILLE, he hosted another Saturday morning show, UNCLE CROC’S BLOCK, which featured various short cartoons produced by FILMATION STUDIOS…

    I had been a fan of The Munsters in the 60s and Eddie had been my favourite character. I remember watching Lidsville when it was on our screens. I don’t think it occurred to me that Mark was an older version of Butch Patrick, alias Eddie Munster. I find it interesting how British child actor Jack Wild had started in H.R. Pufenstuff. I think Butch and Jack lived pretty similar troubled lives. The late Jack did not think early fame was a good thing. I think their lives are cautionary tales for those who aspire to become famous.

    • @ianellis-ih3dd
      @ianellis-ih3dd 9 місяців тому

      Sorry, that wasn’t typed right. I didn’t mean to say Jack Wild STARTED in Pufnstuf. His previous claim to fame had been playing the Artful Dodger in the famous musical Oliver. I had meant to say Jack had STARRED in Pufnstuf.

    Marty Krofft, was quoted as saying: “You can’t create this stuff stoned”. Whether they ever used drugs at all is anyone’s guess. As it it is though, the shows certainly appealed to stoners.

  • @DeaconBlues117
    @DeaconBlues117 9 місяців тому

    I don't think you need to reach to the show's title for drug references, especially as weed is barely a "drug" - more akin to alcohol than opium - and a "lid" is a given amount of pot, not a slang reference to pot. (Now, if they'd called it "a Sid and Marty Krofft joint"...) No, the drug references I see are that in order to conceive of "Lidsville" and "H.R. Pufenstuf", I think you'd need to be on LSD.

    A lid is an archaic term of measurement for marijuana but the hats, sure😜

    Not just "lid" as slang for marijuana... But the show's title and theme song lyrics are blatantly drug-related. "Puff 'n' stuff"? I think we know what stuff is being puffed here. "Can't do a little 'cause you can't do enough"? Uh ya. Of course as a little kid in the 70s I had no clue about that, so it was kind of clever in its innuendo.
