    It's a tie between "Watch Mr. Wizard" with Don Herbert (sponsored by the Better Breakfast Council, or something like that: "Fruit, cereal, milk, bread, and butter") and "Winky Dink and You." Winky Dink sold special crayons and plastic sheets that went over the TV screen, so you could draw in the missing parts of the cartoon by following a moving dot. My wife thought I was making that up, just like she thought I was kidding about Sugar Jets (sugar-coated Kix: "Nnnnyyyyeeeeoooowwww, Jets!") and
    I'm Buffalo Bee,
    Take my advice,
    Get Nabisco Wheat Honeys,
    Also Rice.​
    I got my first slide telescope with a Sugar Jets boxtop and $1.00. One morning when my favorite cereal tasted like cardboard, my mom kept me home from school and discovered that I had the measles.

    Gotta be 'MASH' - still is. I always wanted to grow up and be Hawkeye Pierce - he was non-violent but passionate (and got so many nurses to go with him to the storage tent)

    Beanie and Ceicl, Wagon Train, Rawhide, Car 54, National Velvet, I'm sure there are more that I will think of later. It is too early for coherent thought.

    Family Affair, my most favorite show was The Monkees, Captain Kangaroo, American Bandstand, Bullwinkle and Rocky, Sigmund and the Sea Monsters, that one where that family was stuck in the dinosaur age after their raft went into a hole (can't remember the name)

    Does anyone remember "Sigmond and the SeaMonsters?" It starred the kid that played Jody on Family Affair (something Whittaker) and actor's in seamonster costumes! I loved it! And "Land of the Lost" with the Sleezaks? Johnny Quest? The Bowery Boys with Mickey Rooney?
    How bout the choclate creme filled cereal puffs called, "Mr. Wonderful's Surprise" It was like eating a bowl of candybars.
    And how many of you sent off for seamonster's (the ad's showed a whole family with mom wearing a crown) only to get a jar full of water with some specks in it?
    LOST ARE THE DAYS OF INNOCENCE!

    Yep, Puffinstuff was like Sesame Street on shrooms. Charles Nelon Riley was on something fer sure. I still remember the theme song to Land of the Lost. And the catoon I think called, "Mach 5" with sister Trixie and her pet monkey. I also loved "The Patty Duke Show" "Yes, there cousin's, identical cousins, they look alike they dress alike, they talk alike, they walk alike, what a likely pair" Ohh and "Emergency" with Chad Everett.
