Phil Collins should be happy he lost the audition, what a disaster the LSD Kroft's show was.

The girl was cute. Joy was the character name I believe. My parents loved the show and we had it on DVD! That stupid song is in my head now!

I absolutely refuse to believe that Sid and Marty Krofft
weren't high on something when they were making those shows.
C'mon, "H.R. Puffnstuff"? Can't get much more obvious than that!

This was the 70s, I just remember green miniskirts and gogo boots (I wasn’t very tall back then). ;^)

Those were the days. Completely whacky shows for kids that made no sense at all and we kind of actually hope were filled with drug references. Cause they weren’t, what the heck were they talking about?

I was always a bit too old for their product, but I always got sort of a sicko-weirdo feeling from their productions.

Land Of The Lost is one show that just SCREAMS for a modern day reboot. No not talking about the live action movie from a few years ago either.
That show was cerebral science-fiction of rare maturity for its intended audience demographic. It actually took the kids seriously as viewers.
Best show the Kroffts ever made.
