    Pee Wee's Playhouse was the most entertaining show for me in the decade. Paul Reubens is a creative genius, it's sad he took such a beating for his insane moment.

    That show was called "Wonder Bug" It was part of the Kroft supershow along with "Dr. Shrinker" , "Electra Woman and Dyna Girl and "Bigfoot and Wildboy" God this forum is bringing back so many memories from my childhood. Thanks everyone.

    A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.

    I remember watching these when I was a kid. Robert Conrad cracks me up. Gabe Kaplan rocks. And I'm horny for Linda Carter.

    Wonderbug theme

    Here's the intro to Wonderbug.

    Believe it or not the black dude, John Anthony Baily, became a porn star!

    Saturday morning cartoons and shows back then were the best!
    Anyone else remember "Land of the Lost?"

    Well, the wait is over....I read in this week's Globe Magazine (reliable? who knows).....that Circus of the Stars is coming back. I believe it said that the producers of "Dancing with the Stars" will be behind this show, and they've moved beyond the talking stage to give this show a go-ahead.

    Hey, they brought back "American Gladiators" this year, so why not this???
