I sure do, was portrayed as African American and his name I believe was a tribute to president Franklin Roosevelt, and he had a purple head.
He went to public elementary school, drew pictures on the chalkboard and had singalongs, and I think it was the Gordon character he hung around with but not sure? I also think he had his own theme song.
Do you know the story behind his disappearance? Parents were writing the network, saying he was a bad influence on children.Comment
