Wow, thanks for sharing! I grew up in Syracuse and watched this every Saturday. I remember visiting the TV studio with my elementary school class. I think it was either Morgan Road Elem or something like Donland Drive Elem. I was thrilled to see the studio and the props used in the opening sequence. Very nice memories. Thanks a lot.

Now that would have been awesome as a kid during that time to see the TV set for the show. : )

I'm from Central New York, and I remember it well, from the late-60s. Bill Everett was my TV production professor at OCC.

[turtleguardian211]

Yeah, I remember it. and I remember the creature from the black lagoon. They must have played it several times. I really liked the godzilla, rodan, and monster zero type movies. I watched it in Solvay.

I am from Kingston, Ontario and we watched this show every Saturday afternoon! Loved it! I still remember one of the classics called "The Mole People". My youngest brother wouldn't go outside alone for a month after seeing this one with us - he was about 7 at the time!

My God I loved this show! I rarely missed it as a child. It provided me with every nightmare I ever had growing up.
