Sid & Marty Krofft Sic Sleestaks on MySpace

Any child of the ’70s will appreciate this — Sid and Marty Krofft are bringing their blend of psychedelic kids programming to MySpace. The social network will feature kitschy kids programming like H.R. Pufnstuf, Sigmund and the Sea Monsters, The Bugaloos, Electra Woman and Dyna Girl and more.

Enjoy this Cha-ka-licious bit of dinosaur goodness from Land of the Lost (it looks better than that upcoming Journey to the Center of the Earth movie).

The shows have been condensed into 3 to 5 minute “Krofft Kwikies,” with most of that time being eaten up by the theme song, which, let’s be honest, is the best part (sing it with me: Marshall, Will and Holly, on a routine expedition…). To their credit, these shows are still mind-bending, even by today’s standards — though they are silly and not quite as entertaining as our memories of them. The Onion may have summed it up best with this classic: “Nostalgic Memories of Land of the Lost Ruined by DVD Release.”

  1. Jim Washburn one of the producers/directors of Land of the Lost died yesterday. I used to work for him. His IMDB list doesn’t do him justice. He was one of the most interesting characters I’ve known and he will be missed.
