    Huell Howser deserves a statue. Such a legend. He will always be missed.

    Can't believe some of the comments on here bad mouthing Huell. He was such a great guy. He is just a normal guy and he gets excited. He never means to cut someone off on purpose. It's just how he was. He has done more for California history then I bet any body in this comment section. So how about do a little less judging and be a little more thankful for such a great person who showed us alot of California most of us will never get to see.

      Agree with you 100%. He just got so excited and he wanted to talk to as many people as possible. He is dearly missed.

      the trash talk seems to have been disposed of but want to mention the reactions to it made me notice this is a half-hour, one take, show. As in live radio the show must go on and the bits getting cut off are repetitive pleasantries, variations of goodbye but the story for the audience is not ending

    When Huell says "This is going to be a lot of fun!" - HE WAS NOT JOKING!!! See, I live but a mile or two from the Live Steamers, and I've been there countless times - especially with my grandsons. The ride is an absolute BLAST - especially if you're hooked up to one of the club member's actual steam powered locos!! A whole lot of great family fun can be had there. And if your "young ones" haven't has enough of trains - Travel Town is right next door!!!!

    In the 1940's---1960's there was a small live steam train that ran on weekends in Stream land Park located in Pico-Rivera . My chemistry teacher Mr. Brock built, maintained, and ran the train. He was a teacher at Montebello High School for many years. I took my kids there for years.

    Oh, Huell, you were great.(In your other news stories) But, I think on this day you were like Pinocchio on the first day of school when Gepetto was trying to put your backpak on. You were ALL over the place! No regard to safety, boundaries, went right into places you probably didn't have access to, and you asked questions like you had A.D.D.! LOL!
    I did like the restraint you had while inside Walt Disney's Barn. KUDOS.
    For the rest of the segment, they were trying to tell you the history of the park and you kept going, "Look at THIS guy!" Then jumping over tracks, getting in between tracks, causing a backup. SMH Ugh. This whole thing was hard to watch. I do love you, Huell, but, again, this was hard to watch. LOL
    Mad respect to you. I wish you were still among us.

    It actually makes me laugh when Huell cut-off people talking. Not because i approve of this disrespect, but because Huell thought everyone's opinion was just as important as the next guy's opinion. That was just his way in every episode. I miss good ol' Huell.
