There was a time when television was in black and white and there were far fewer channels than we have today, and return to the program for 1950 children was a popular variety band called Andy. Maybe some of you actually remember. For the rest of you could travel through time and the place where Jack Froggy reigned supreme and midnight would be happy to have on his fiddle with the mouse squeaks.

This show was afor the royal treatment on Saturday morning for most children. What's more, because it was not for all tastes. Froggy the Gremlin you see the most popular character the show was, I ruin things. Normally, a guest speaker at the show and Froggy then be invited to go to ruin his carefully prepared speech. With this seemingly evil intentions and the voice of Froggy gravel, some children who have some 'fear and even had nightmares. My theory is that children are very nice - l 'those who have never bad - Found Froggy catch a bit ', but children can sometimes obvious - the majority - the refusal of the authorities was refreshing ... and pleasure.

The show begins with a rendition of Buster Brown Shoes, the song of the sponsor. It 'was a mix of acrobatics live with host Andy Devine and the various puppet characters and movie adventures of a young Indian named Rham chase in the jungle.

Andy was quite Gangstrange and confused and amused children alike. Often, the series was real live animals, including lions and monkeys that ridiculous costumes. The real star of the show, however, was Froggy the Gremlin. He was a true rebel. Guests are presented (in fact they were generally live audience, it contains only images and sounds), a talk studio audience on a subject as serious as how to bake a cake or how to fish for Froggy wouldinterruptions and the words in the mouth of the host.

For example:

Comfort: Once the pudding mixture I. ...

Froggy ... put him in the head

Comfort: ... my ...

And, of course, the evaluation of the proposal do not know what he did. Froggy wins again!

Froggy the Gremlin wild-type sequence was loved by most children. Some have suggested, probably with a wink, that the generation of children who Froggy shot in the observedrebellious teenager in the late 60's and Froggy had a subliminal effect on them. One day we may see a thesis entitled 'Gremlin Froggy influence in history. "

One of the many strange events in the show, Andy Levine, the slogan has been used to Froggy would appear. "Plunk your magic Twang, Froggy" What takes Twang verb and noun, it is not clear, but has its roots in an earlier version of the band, Andy called Buster Brown GangEd McConnell presented find Froggy played guitar once.

If the adult children of today a bit 'confusing to find TV, just think that the bands 1950-Andy face .... Nothing will change cultivated thought!
