The old man may seem creepy this day and age, but this show was awesome back in the day. I remember bugging the crap out my mom and dad to get supplies for a lot of those experiments.

Remember these metal TV trays that kids used to eat grilled cheese sandwiches on while watching Pinwheel or The A-Team after school?

Yes, yes I do remember them. My mother owned a fine set with a country home-ish floral design. They folded out, like mini-tables. I believe she has them stacked up in the back of a closet somewhere. Classy nostalgia!

In honor of Gumby creator Art Clokey (he passed away on Friday, January 8th at the age of 88), let us all remember the claymation magic that was Gumby (and Gumby’s talking-horse-sidekick, Pokey). Clokey created Gumby with his wife, who suggested he model a character after the gingerbread man (Green was Clokey’s favorite color, and therefore he made Gumby green. His slanted head was inspired his father’s hairstyle). Clokey also created Davey and Goliath. Take a moment to remember and celebrate Clokey’s most famous and beloved work.

1983’s The Adventures of Bob & Doug McKenzie: Strange Brew stars Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis, who also played the McKenzie brothers on SCTV. There are (loose) parallels to Shakespeare’s Hamlet in the story, with the McKenzie brothers supposedly standing in for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. The script underwent many changes during production, and this, perhaps, explains why most wouldn’t use the word “cohesive” to describe the storyline. Still, if you like “Candians say ‘eh’ a lot” jokes, then I am hard pressed to recommend a better movie to you.

Talky Tina appeared in the season 5 The Twilight Zone episode “Living Doll.” Talky Tina is a nasty little doll with murder on her mind. I don’t know what it is about dolls that makes them so terrifying. I suppose it could be the fact that they are humanlike but not human. Or maybe it’s just their perpetually cheerful faces. Either way, dolls have been a horror movie staple ever since. In my book, Talky Tina goes down as the creepiest of the creepy dolls, even beating out more ostentatious monsters like Chucky (and also The Bride of Chucky).
