[ilovehamsteriffic]

THIS THING IS GREAT! ME AND MY CLASS WATCH A EPISODE OF THIS FUNNY HOBO SHOWS ON FRIDAY!

[CandyFreak101]

I remember this shit! It was stupid!

[GrandAuthorYun]

I grew up in Louisiana, and I remember I used to HATE the French language because my grandmother would gossip with her brothers in French, and I would get angry because I couldn't understand it. :(

Twenty five or so years later, having learned a bit of French, I kinda wish I had paid more attention.

[xE1x1LuSiOnZz009]

[RedDayWoman345]

For all you disney hercules fans...you wanna buy a sundial? X^D

[BEANPOLE111]

this show was awesome... i was displeased to discover that university courses in introductory french do not use Sol.

[Dulcimerist]

I watched this show as a kid, and it made me think that Quebec was infested by homeless clowns!

[shawnmc420]

I used to love this show and the theme song stuck in my head for like 30 years.....

[brucewegage1]

[blader09111]

[Sens317]

Quelle pute!!!!

[phred75]

That dude was a styling Quebecer!!

[TigerFallOut]

i have to watch this in french class, its actually really annoying cuz we have to write about it.

[legueu]

@TigerFallOut I've heard that writing is really bad for healt and can kill you...

[zyphoid666]

Fuck me!!! Sol scared the shit out of me when I was little, he looks like a murdering grifter hobo clown from hell!!!

[bink]

Christ, I remember this well. Incredibly, it's even more disturbing now then when I was a kid. You're right about Sol- he looks like a character from a Rob Zombie film. Come to think of it, I'm not sure who's creepier- Sol or Marc Favreau, the guy who plays him. Out of make-up, he kinda reminds me a bit of Robert Englund.

[Xeper1979]

He reminds me of King Diamond a bit lol a homeless king Diamond, no disrespect to the king I am a huge fan

[bink]

And don't even get me started on the shady, Borat-looking scalper...

[zyphoid666]

@bink

LMAO.

[jasongogal]

Totally remember Sol films. Loved them. Didn't appreciate them very much. They actually are a big help for understanding quebec french. Sol forever!

[stooley]

um, this clown scared the shit out of me.

[TheThrillerFan1]

@stooley, Sol scared the shit out of me, too! See my comment below. Man, is he ever a creepy, dirty hobo just to look at him. The make-up doesn't help either. Neither does that theme music! *shivers* Seriously just google "parlez-moi creepy hobo clown" and results come the first two pages alone! Gah, what a creepy, creepy thing that clown is! It's the stuff of nightmares! He's just so dead-like and ghostly, it's not even funny.

[PeromyscusLeucopus]

I totally remember this. Sol was hilarious, and the show was very educational!

[lakesidepark2112]

This is excellent!  Good ol' Sol.

[rmr2001]

SOL rules!!! RIP Marc.

[ravenwolfgang1969]

i love this guy!!!...many moons have passed since i have heard that accent...

[TheThrillerFan1]

Sol always scared the crap out of me. The theme music was scary as hell! It still gives me the chills when I hear it. I just get a bad vibe from Sol. He's like the boogeyman! I'm glad I'm not the only one scared of this guy. Yikes!! Scary clown!

[zyphoid666]

@TheThrillerFan1

Me too!! God the 80's were awesome, nothing but terrifying and utterly wrong children's programming lol.

[mahalolovesyou]

OMFG!!!! my french teacher made us watch it! got anymore? he was awesome. RIP.

[morgan2250]

This show scared me so much as a child!!! I still have a fear of clowns because of this show....

[shiftyroach]

this creeped me out royally as a kid

[WiiClassic2usb]

Where's the mouse? I coulda swore this show had a grey mouse puppet in it named Merci.

[thegothicxlx]

lol, je n'ai pas d'argent... xD

[vzmkitty]

Thank you for posting this. I remember watching it on PBS, although I didn't really learn any French from it.

[99f234]
