Views: 949

Here is Part 4 of a compilation of assorted Son of Svengoolie clips. I did not make this compilation - it has been floating around the trading circles for a long time, and this is the best copy I've been able to find. It has some neat clips you will not see anywhere else.

Featuring:

The Day After Christmas Complaint Department (must be from Dec. 1983, since this is a reference to The Day After movie that aired in November of that year and was big news.) (inc...

Screaming Yellow Theater (Svengoolie) - "Show #5 - Man Man Sven (ab)Used Cars" (1972)

Views: 1687

Here's a segment from Screaming Yellow Theater - the original Svengoolie, which aired on WFLD Channel 32 from 1970-1973. Svengoolie was played by Jerry G. Bishop.

With no clapboard segments, we can only guess that this was Break #6 (from "Show #5") - although on these master tapes sometimes they didn't save all of the breaks, so this could be Break #7 or Break #8 for all we know. This one features a classic - Mad Man Sven (ab)Used Cars. This sketch was seen at one point duri...

Here's a segment from Screaming Yellow Theater - the original Svengoolie, which aired on WFLD Channel 32 from 1970-1973. Svengoolie was played by Jerry G. Bishop.

With no clapboard segments, we can only guess that this was Break #4 (from "Show #5") - although on these master tapes sometimes they didn't save all of the breaks, so this could be Break #5 or Break #6 for all we know. This one features a riddle by Sven.

Note he also mentions tonight's "first" flick ...

WCIU Channel 26 - The Warren Freiberg Show (Part 4, 1981)

Views: 3391

Here's Part 4 of an episode of The Warren Freiberg Show on WCIU Channel 26. In case you weren't familiar with him, Warren Freiberg had some rather "extreme" and "fringe" opinions. He had a radio show, and you may also remember him turning up in little vignettes on Steve Dahl's "It's Too Early" show from 1983.

This part features Warren and Libby continuing their talk with video-recording pioneer (and comic book store pioneer) Larry Charet (yes, the legendary man who accidently r...

Views: 1267

Here's a segment from Screaming Yellow Theater - the original Svengoolie, which aired on WFLD Channel 32 from 1970-1973. Svengoolie was played by Jerry G. Bishop.

This is the closing segment from what we assume is still "Show #5". Here Sven sings a parody of "When Your Smiling" and does one of his bedtime stories (poem) with the intro, "Brush your fangs, comb your face, drink your milk before it clots, and bite momma good night..." (a bit which was used again by Rich Koz on S...
