"I always had a thing for Wendy, and got to the point I really didn't like Jan and Jace very much..."

^I think you mean Zan and Jayna, the WonderTwins. Jan and Jace were Space Ghost's teen sidekicks.

Blasphemy! It wasn't Saturday morning w/o Krofft! And classic Land Of The Lost wasn't psychedelic. Sid and Marty must have been doing something right to be popular all those years, and be a part of pop culture today.

Sorry I had a tendency to change the channel for the most part when anything Krofft came on...I remember watching Sigmund and the Sea Monster and Lidsville as well as the Super Show...but pretty much anything else (Bugaloos, Lost Saucer, Far Out Space Nuts, even Puf N Stuf) was a channel changer. And I definitely was not down with LOTL...I had a friend in grade school that always wanted to talk about it and I had to beg him not to.

Give me Hanna-Barbera animation over Krofft anyday of the week...Speaking of which I WILL say that I adored The Banana Splits as a kid.

And once the acid drops got cut back in the 70s the Kroffts popularity waned.... Coupled with the fact that stuff like The Muppet Show was a much more intelligent product.

[nvmbrsdoom5]

1) CBS, NBC, ABC?
-When I was really young (age 2-6) I mainly watched ABC, then I gravitated more towards NBC later with Spidey & Hulk hour, Smurfs, Kidd Video, etc. I watched select CBS shows throughout.

2) What time would you get up?
-Roughly around 8am to 9am, give or take.

3)What time did you stop watching?
-Depended on my mood, sometimes I'd stop when cartoons were done, but sometimes I'd watch Bandstand or Soul Train and ABC Weekend Specials (anyone remember the theme song? Love it!) Sometimes would stick around long enough to watch the program "Kidding Around" on NBC, which came on around Noon.

4) What cereal(s) would you eat?
-All kinds, especially Booberry, Frankenberry, Fruity Pebbles, Fruit Loops, Apple Jacks, Super Golden Crisp....

5) Where would you watch?
-In the living room.

6) Funny cartoons or adventure?
- A mix of both. I gravitated towards the superhero ones especially (go figure) but I also loved stuff like Bugs Bunny/Road Runner hour. And I adore Schoolhouse Rock!!

7) Favorite Krofft show?
-Electra Woman and Dyna Girl, and Kaptain Kool And The Kongs

8) Favorite Filmation live-action show?
-Early on it was Shazam and Isis, and later I liked Kids Super Power Hour

9) Which Superfriends show was your favorite? (Superfriends '73, '77, Challenge of the Superfriends, World's Greatest Superfriends)

10) Would you watch American Bandstand or Soul Train?
-Yeah I would occasionally watch both. Later on I also watched America's Top 10 on Saturday afternoons as well on WGN here in Chicago, circa early 1980s.
