Brother.... Not sure if you truly know the impact of what you're doing here....all I can say is Thank You - we are prisoners of the 21st Century....we're in a form hell or purgatory for Gen-X'ers where everything we love is being destroyed....At least here on your channel we can feel normal again, get a bowl of cereal and vanish back to the world we once knew 💗
As a kid, I had my line up all planned out. First I would watch ABC shows, then I would watch NBC shows, then I would finish off with CBS shows, and then watch American Bandstand, then maybe go outside.
When the CBS Newsbreak would come on Saturday morning at 11:50am here in Boston that was your cue to get ready to go out and play because Candlepin Bowling came on at noon 😆
I was 8 in 1975.. I remember sitting in front of the TV, eating a bowl of Kaboom cereal and watching cartoons. Thank you for posting and bringing back a flood of great memories!
I was in 3rd grade when these episodes would have aired, and I would have been glued to the TV when they did. I remember them all fondly!! Thank you for posting this!!
Great Memories!!! I was 10 years old and I vividly remember the way the Skipper walked....I loved it then, and I love it now. The commercials only add to the laughs.
@@OceanPatriot777 I remember getting up early on Saturdays even before my parents were up so I could start watching the cartoons. So it was always cold cereal for me too. But it was something with too much sugar in it, so it was delicious 😋

Thank you for reminding us what we had. How thankful we should be for our times, our lives, and our history. I pity kids now. They are being pulled in every direction, being told HOW to ACT, BEHAVE, who to love, why, how, and when. Kids are being manipulated more now than ever before. I miss days when 📺TV📺 was just 📺TV.📺 Plain entertainment. No agendas, no politics or anything based off of policies from specific parties, and before anyone says one or the other, IT'S BEEN BOTH! !
Just like the rest, I think I was about 7-8 in 1975, (born on July,1967)... So, I definitely remember a lot of these including the commercials. A bowl of cereal or a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. My mom saying, "get back. You're too close to the television"...lol.
Another well-appreciated lineup, Mone. Lost Saucer? Uncle Croc? Unbelievable and so great. I also appreciate your adding as many classic HB toons as possible. Odd, how full episodes of some HB toons cannot be added.
I'm impressed with the Krofft's output with recognizable TV stars starting with "The Lost Saucer" We have Gomer and Gladys from Laugh In encountering Art Carlson, Bookman, and Toody (ooh ooh)
Thanks so much for this. This video contains my earliest Saturday morning memories. Waves of nostalgia hit while watching this. Remembering my childhood and my parents while eating my favorite cereal. Just wish I could get a box of Freakies cereal to go with it. Thanks again and please keep doing what you do. It's amazing.
Freakies! Ah, I had the Moss Boss figure, best prize ever in a box of cereal. Except for the plastic Swiss Army Knife with fork, spoon, and knife from Honeycombs.
Was a newborn around this time, but many years later saw the T&J show and Gilligan cartoons in the local/syndicated afternoon blocks. I was surprised to see a show with Jim Nabors, Ruth Buzzi, one of the cops from Car 54, and Rerun! What a mash up of comedic talents
Thank you for sharing this content. You are performing public service for those of us who have a need to escape from the 21st century every now-and-then, and travel back to simpler times when fun was fun. ✋🏼👍🏼😊
I always thought it was hysterically funny for a superhero to make his entrances with the tag line "Number One Super Guy!" I wonder if Penry had that printed up on some business cards. I think Uncle Croc's Bloc was what caused ABC to dump Filmation shows once and for all after 1975. The Oddball Couple had some great voice talent in it with Paul Winchell and Frank Nelson and I thought it was a pretty underrated show. The 1970's were an awesome time to be a kid. We had three channels packed with cartoon goodness on Saturday mornings, and all three networks offered good cartoons. I remember changing the channel a lot during commercials. We didn't have cell phones or video games or internet or other modern day distractions, so we could enjoy basic things like cartoons and being outside to ride bicycles or swim or just run around and act stupid. I think life was a lot more fun then. It was certainly a lot less serious.
Oh wow I love ABC Saturday morning lineups from the 70s are Superfriends, Schoolhouse Rock, Scooby-Doo, Hong Kong Phooey, Fat Albert, Yogi's Gang, American Bandstand, Soul Train, Gilligan's Island, Grape Ape, Jabberjaw, ABC Weekend Special, The Oddball Couple, and lots more too!!!! Thanks so much posting this I love it!!! I love the 70s can you dig it!!!! Saturday morning cartoons and live action shows bring back a lot of memories!!!!😃😃😃😃😃😍😍😍😍😍😍😍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️😘😘😘😘😘💐💐💐💐💐🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈💐💐💐💐💐💐😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀😃😃😃😃😃😃 Do you have Schoolhouse Rock episode from 1975 and 1976!!!!
Wow. This brings back wonderful childhood memories. Times were simpler and we were in a golden era of TV 📺. Saturday mornings. I like TH-cam more than regular tv.
I'm 55 years old, and currently an animation student. One of the first things one of my teachers did was take all of the tech out of the room, give everyone a stack of paper, and give us a scene to animate. On average, one 6 minute cartoon takes 20,000 to 30,000 different drawings to produce, depending on the complexity of the scene. These guys were cranking out about 5 episodes per half hour show, every week for about 8 months of the year. 5 to 6 shows a week, depending on the studio. Incredible!!!
I forgot all about the Marvelous Magical Burger King!! Or blocked him from my mind, maybe? I will say he's certainly less creepy than the current 'Burger King'! LOL

I was born in 1959 and the real Saturday mornings was the 1960s with all of the Super hero and science fiction cartoons. The 1970s and 1980s were crap on Saturday mornings. Anime was the way to go with me since 1963.
keep the 70s early 80s stuff coming. I was looking around on TH-cam for some Rickety Rocket episodes and the 1st video I came across was some lady complaining that Hong Kong phooey as well as rickety was racist????? I don't know what the world's coming to. R.I.P Scatman Crouthers
I said this years ago when Speedy Gonzales and Apu were being "cancelled". Who else would they go after? Hong Kong Fooey? A dog who is a janitor with an "oriental" name that has a pet cat and helps police fight crime? Yup! The rumblings did start. Scatman Crothers. A black man who was a vaudevillian entertainer and had a long marriage to a white woman. S
Excellent job - your compilation is well-curated. The half-hour episode of Uncle Croc's Block means that it was sometime between October 19 1975 and February 14, 1976, when the series was taken off the air. Prior to that, it was an hour-long series.
dam you are that ddue for real-it is videos like this which reminds me why im glad i grew up in the time i did-sad that these kids wont experince these moments on saturdays anymore.huge salute and continue the great work
Boy we used to geeked up for these specials! Each network had one, it was how you set up your Saturday morning watching! Damn, I had that $6 Million Dollar man, I bet it's worth good piece of change today! 🙂
🤣Hey ! My lil brother who is 60 now. STILL has a large collection of those license plates. I helped him collect them cuz that was AND still is one of my favorite cereals.
It’s sad they don’t make commercials like this anymore. It’s like the msg was more deeper than it already was. Cartoons just aren’t the same at all either.
ABC was so disappointed with Uncle Crocs Bloc they severed all ties with Filmation thats why shortly there after you see Super friends & Scooby doo from Hanna-Barbera & many more on ABC
During mid season ABC cut the show down to a half hour and only kept Wacky and Packy. Ironic that Filmation had better success with CBS with Tarzan the following year and Batman mid season later.
I live in England. I was 9 years old in 1975 and we fortunately got some of the great cartoons shown in the US. How nice it is to be able to experience what it was like as a viewer across the Atlantic. Like the pinned comment says, today's world by comparison is dull, empty, humourless, lacking in imagination. It only remains to say HONG KONG PHOOEY! PANRIFFIC!!
OMG, Doctor Who ripped off “The Lost Saucer!!” The aliens in their time machine space craft pick up a baby sitter and her charge. I’m looking at you Clara Oswald!! 😂 😂 😂
"Now I go to the House of Representatives and they vote on me!" "If they vote Yes what happens?" "Then I go to the Senate and the whole thing starts all over again!" "Oh no!" "Oh, yes!" ~Schoolhouse Rock, exposing Congress' inefficiencies since 1975.
Why was I not informed about "Lost Saucer" with Jim Nabors, Ruth Buzzy, Gordon Jump, et al. in 1975 when I was 15? Is it an East Coast thing or was I too busy watching "Land of the Lost" on one of the other three grainy black-and-white channels? At least I saw this classic here before I died!
I remember eating that nasty alphabet cereal just for an Indiana license plate and still never got one 😒! If only life was still that simple with no worries but what cereal you wanted to get that week at the grocery 🤔.. ❤ your videos!
lol alpha bit cereal sho is nasty th-cam.com/video/kaUj55pO-rM/w-d-xo.html And yes, I loved the grocery shopping with moms to decide what cereal to get so I truly understand where you are coming from. No worries, no responsibility. Beautiful time
The sad thing about Uncle Crock's Bloc is that the live action segments are infinitely better than the meh cartoons that interrupt them. Such a shame most of those live action bits are lost media. That parody of 1950's style TV hosts was ahead of its time and unfortunately intended for the wrong audience.
@@tonycanabal1659 Pee Wee worked better because, while the original stage show was a loving parody of 50's era kid's shows, the actual series knew its target audience was children, and embraced that audience while appealing to adults who loved the surreal aspects. It didn't come off completely ironic or snarky, and had a childlike whimsy, not to mention that it felt contemporary, not like a sarcastic throwback. Uncle Crock was pure parody and had an ironic, sarcastic flair to it. It was very pop culture oriented in its day, even one of the cartoon segments was a send off of a popular nighttime sitcom. It was something far too ahead of its time, something more akin to a late 80's, early 90's style of pop culture parody humor. Unless the kiddos were avid readers of Mad Magazine at the time, there really wasn't anything out there like it. 70's television cartoons, at least as far as networks go, was incredibly safe and full of network heads pestering H-B and Filmation to just keep making the same shows, and parental groups still overreacting to the violent super hero movement of the late 60's. While the cartoon segments of Crock fit nicely into the inoffensive, non-violent category, the dysfunctional wild parody of the live action segments stood out too well.
Memories omg Hong Kong phooey My best friend Billy Nickorick he loved that Cartoon . Skat man kerothers Did the voice for hong Kong Phoney i miss you Billy Nickorick
Holy Shit!!! I didn't watch this show back in the day, but Ruth Buzzi,Jim Nabors and Gordon Jump (WKRP)!!??? It must of been a good payday for these actors...
My son tries to compare his cartoons to mine.😂😂😂 The only ones we have in common are Powerpuff Girls,Batman TAS,&;Family Guy! The only difference is that my generation wasn't a slave to today's technology.
How are you getting this? It makes no sense. Home recorders weren't even available till 1976. Plus this is in such decent quality, it astounds me. Keep it up but I am still baffled by your magic.
I never watched Uncle Croc's Block . I would like to see how it originally aired. This all just footage that already exists on TH-cam. I know for sure those aren't the original closing credits. Those credits were made and used for The Groovie Goolies and Friends syndication package.
@@albertwise6426 That's great! I would love to see it! I'm sure others would as well. I also just realized that when Uncle Croc's Block was downsized from 60 minutes to 30 that the opening theme song would have been slightly edited. By the way, which animated segment was retained for the 30 minute show. Wacky & Packy or M*U*S*H ? I've read conflicting reports online and in books. Any info would be great!
If you're struggling to think of a gift for someone calculate what year they were say...10 years old, look up the top selling toys for that year and get one of those. I did this for my grandpa before he died. It was an old tin dick tracy car. To see the joy on this old Korean War veterans face was priceless. He new exactly what it was and told me that he never had one because his family was really poor. He bought anything he wanted as an adult making him virtually ungiftable. What better gift for an old timer than giving them back their youth...you're welcome.

The sad thing about Uncle Crock's Bloc is that the live action segments are infinitely better than the meh cartoons that interrupt them. Such a shame most of those live action bits are lost media. That parody of 1950's style TV hosts was ahead of its time and unfortunately intended for the wrong audience.
Pee Wee used similar concepts in his Playhouse show and was successful.
@@tonycanabal1659 Pee Wee worked better because, while the original stage show was a loving parody of 50's era kid's shows, the actual series knew its target audience was children, and embraced that audience while appealing to adults who loved the surreal aspects. It didn't come off completely ironic or snarky, and had a childlike whimsy, not to mention that it felt contemporary, not like a sarcastic throwback. Uncle Crock was pure parody and had an ironic, sarcastic flair to it. It was very pop culture oriented in its day, even one of the cartoon segments was a send off of a popular nighttime sitcom. It was something far too ahead of its time, something more akin to a late 80's, early 90's style of pop culture parody humor. Unless the kiddos were avid readers of Mad Magazine at the time, there really wasn't anything out there like it. 70's television cartoons, at least as far as networks go, was incredibly safe and full of network heads pestering H-B and Filmation to just keep making the same shows, and parental groups still overreacting to the violent super hero movement of the late 60's. While the cartoon segments of Crock fit nicely into the inoffensive, non-violent category, the dysfunctional wild parody of the live action segments stood out too well.
The Uncle Croc show reminds me of the King Koopa cartoon show lol.

You're doing the Lord's work... 😁
Holy Shit!!! I didn't watch this show back in the day, but Ruth Buzzi,Jim Nabors and Gordon Jump (WKRP)!!??? It must of been a good payday for these actors...
I still have a couple of those mini license plates.
dope
We weren’t hateful. My generation. Way back jack. BOY AND GIRL SCOUT STYLE
The Lost Saucer was Doctor Who before we Americans had ever heard of Doctor Who.
My son tries to compare his cartoons to mine.😂😂😂 The only ones we have in common are Powerpuff Girls,Batman TAS,&;Family Guy! The only difference is that my generation wasn't a slave to today's technology.
Wow where did you find a episode of Uncle Croc's Block love all the guest stars it had and the rest of all the shows.
deep research
How are you getting this? It makes no sense. Home recorders weren't even available till 1976. Plus this is in such decent quality, it astounds me.
Keep it up but I am still baffled by your magic.
In the Gilligan cartoon Gilligan was a little smarter and not so clumsy, maybe Bob Denver had sone input, or the educational consultants on the show.
And yes I just subscribed
Soap Shapers, the worst cereal box premium. I had a yellow one.
Good to see Mr Bookman the Superintendent from Good Times in the future. 😅
lol
The year I was born....👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I never watched Uncle Croc's Block . I would like to see how it originally aired. This all just footage that already exists on TH-cam. I know for sure those aren't the original closing credits. Those credits were made and used for The Groovie Goolies and Friends syndication package.
I have one original episode of Uncle Croc's Block on 16mm film with original ending.
@@albertwise6426 That's great! I would love to see it! I'm sure others would as well. I also just realized that when Uncle Croc's Block was downsized from 60 minutes to 30 that the opening theme song would have been slightly edited. By the way, which animated segment was retained for the 30 minute show. Wacky & Packy or M*U*S*H ? I've read conflicting reports online and in books. Any info would be great!
This one is really great. I think I had half of those toys. The clown bumpers are kind of creepy though : )
very creepy, 70s was creepy
@@MoneMedia We loved it.
Tom and Jerry Show! Hong Kong Fuwy! Took me back!!!!
Cool 😀
If you're struggling to think of a gift for someone calculate what year they were say...10 years old, look up the top selling toys for that year and get one of those. I did this for my grandpa before he died. It was an old tin dick tracy car. To see the joy on this old Korean War veterans face was priceless. He new exactly what it was and told me that he never had one because his family was really poor. He bought anything he wanted as an adult making him virtually ungiftable. What better gift for an old timer than giving them back their youth...you're welcome.
