      Walt Disney's The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh. As a kid, I watched the Sunday night show religiously. I was a huge Disney kid!
      And then, one Sunday, there he was. Patrick McGoohan, with that bizarre mask was terrifying enough... But then HE LAUGHED! I made my mom change the channel.
      Years later I watched it and realized just how great it was. Now it's become a personal favorite. Now if only we could get a remego of Dr. Syn!

        I know I am later to the party, but I can't be the only one that was terrified of these two.

          Always loved that station.

            ^Some of my most cherished and vivid pop-culture memories hinge on Channel 43. Incredible '70s programming.

            And, ach, Superhost! He deserves a Mego.

                  Didn't really need a magnet, just felt like sharing. A proper 3 3/4" Sleestak action figure would be another matter.

                    Yes. Superhost was awesome.
                    Shortly after I got online I found an email address for Martin Sullivan. I sent him an email asking if were in fact the man who portrayed Superhost. He responded that he was, and that he was retired and living out west. We exchanged a few more emails with me gushing about how much joy he brought me in my youth.
                    Really very nice.
                    (wonder if I could modify a Dr Deadly kit to look like him. . . )

                    WUAB and Big Chuck & Lil John were huge influences on my youth.

                      That's great! I've heard that he's interacted with fans over the years. Like you, I liked BC & LJ as well, I even barely remember Hoolihan. (They came to my school for a fundraiser basketball game.) But they were on pretty late, and I followed them more as a teen. Superhost was a stronger influence, and my memories of him are bolstered by the whole WUAB programming.

                      IIRC, Sullivan is Canadian and worked in Detroit, then Cleveland. I wonder if Svengoolie has met him or the other Cleveland hosts?
