I would have sworn you were making those up until I watched and remembered. Doubt I recognized right away because I remember that at the time he reminded me of the Kid Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. I didnt remember Shakes at all until he delivered one of his lines then a faint glimmer appeared.
What would I give for Antenna TV or some other nostalgia channel to have on Saturday mornings cartoons (Bugs Bunny/Roadrunner Hour, Tarzan, Jackson 5, and a lot of the other Filmation stuff) and live action shows (Shazam/Isis, Jason of Star Command, Banana Splits, Space Academy, etc) that were on from the 1960 to about 1980 period.
And along with that, you’d have during the ad breaks a few of the classic McDonald’s or Burger King ads with the characters I mentioned in my post (McD’s of course the ones with Ronald and Hamburglar and Grimace and Mayor McCheese and the Fry Guys and others). And even also the ads for classic toys from the Star Wars and other popular flicks from that time.
