The seventies produced kids fiction in huge quantities Anyone remember these TV series, and are there any I've forgotten I mean we all know about star trek and that was more adult (well in the UK they put it on at about 7:30pm) the ones I remember cuz they were on telly immediately after school were Land of the giants Lost in Space Tomorrow People
Dark Shadows (a soap opera of all things for the fans of the macabre) or was that during the 1960's ? In any case it was on the Sci-fi channel a couple of years ago - it was pretty good. Hotwater
Dark Shadows was late 60s, I think. Maybe into early 70s. It was a show where something terrible was always about to happen but nothing ever did. Just a lot of evil and perplexed looks on the face of that dude 'Barnabas'. Sid and Marty Croft produced a whole slew of kids shows in late 60s to early 70s. Much of the Croft stuff looked like something you'd dream up when you were high (and they probably were when they wrote it all). Hanna-Barbera was another. There was one called the Hanna-Barbera Happy Hour that was hosted by two life-like puppets that looked rubbery. Their personalities were much the same as Laverne and Shirley. It was basically a variety show for kids. .
Julius Sumner Miller was another off-the-wall character. He was the Bill Nye of the late 60s/70s. He really looked like a mad scientist, but what he said made sense. .
