I remember watching H.R. Pufnstuf and Witchiepoo as a kid. There was some association between them and The Banana Splits, I think.I knew him because of Land of the Lost growing up, and seeing some reruns of Puffnstuff, but my kids loved Mutt and Stuff on Nick Jr. about 10 years ago.
Yes, that's the joke. (See credits.) Greenwood and Laimbeer were high school rivals, and Greenwood was drafted second after Magic Johnson while Laimbeer went in the third round. Then Greenwood sat on the bench for the Pistons and watched Laimbeer win championships.And also former bad boy and domer Bill Laimbeer
Great show! Young Punky spent many a Saturday morning mesmerized by them. And who can forget the show-within-a-show, Danger Island with a young Jan Michael Vincent.I remember watching H.R. Pufnstuf and Witchiepoo as a kid. There was some association between them and The Banana Splits, I think.
I'd forgotten about Danger Island and Vincent until you mentioned it. H.R. Pufnstuf and Witchiepoo and The Banana Splits was like a weird acid trip and eating magic mushrooms but for 10-year-olds. Weird and funny and highly entertaining. Oddly, I remember a joke from The Banana Splits where one of them was pulling a chain and when asked why, he replied that it was easier than pushing it. The goofy things a kid stores away to remember forever.Great show! Young Punky spent many a Saturday morning mesmerized by them.

Uh-oh, Chongo!
Way too young. Only thing I've seen so far about cause was "medical emergency" so it could be any of a million different things. Sad day for baseball and Angels fans.One of my fav athletes of all time just passed,… Garret Anderson passed in his early 50s . 😞😔😢
