old stuff for ye!

Growing up in the sticks like I did, you had only 3 channels from which to choose; ABC, NBC, and CBS. Back in the day, before premium cable, the networks actually made their own movies. Here is the opening title sequence for the ABC Friday Night Movie.

If you remember this show, you are old as fucking dirt. I don't know who Astro Boy is, but I dig this opening theme song!

I'm sure some of you old timers remember this show. Man, the Kroffts were messed up.

When we finally got cable, seeing this clip made me almost pee my pants with excitement. The one, the only, the original...HBO Flying Through Space!

Old Sid and Marty should win the award for most perverted children's programming ever. If there isn't one, it should be invented. Which reminds me, why was Pufnstuff watching little boys?

'Cause Neverland Ranch was closed that day! Ha! Couldn't resist.

Gotta love the Kroffts. I love how they didn't even try to mask the psychedelic elements of their shows. I could just envision them making up these weird-assed stories for their stoner friends.

"Yeah, man, that's cool! And then, like, the witch can be after the magic pipe...uh, I mean the magic flute!"

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love the old HBO opening theme! I've always wished they'd go back to using that-it makes me so nostalgic.

Of course, since I no longer have HBO, I guess I'd miss it. But they should still put it back on.

Just the thought of it is comforting.
