I don't remember that at all, but it looks pretty good. I think I'd've remembered the lady with the purple hair!

I first encountered this about 10 years ago on Youtube.  Thought the purple haired girl in the miniskirt was groovy!

What are you doing?
Are you taking any medications?
Don't do that.

Does anybody else remember Range Rider?  I would be surprised if anybody else does remember it.

I looked it up in case it sparked a memory.  Nope.  It was apparently even before MY time, and before we had a TV.

I remember The Range Rider from '52 or '53 when the family got it's first TV.  I think that was a little before your time.

Not me either.  But I did watch The Cisco Kid in reruns.

I listened to the Cisco Kid on the radio and watched him on black and white tv.  I loved that in the mid '60's The Cisco Kid was the grand marshal of the Chico State Pioneer Day's parade!

I remember the show fondly; it was in syndication either on channel 20 or channel 50 (I don't recall which) in the mid-70s, and was a Gerry Anderson show -- the man responsible for Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, and later Space: 1999.

We 'new atheists' have a reputation for being militant, but make no mistake  we didn't start this war. If you want to place blame put it on the the religious zealots who have been poisoning the minds of the  young for a long long time."

The girls were really pretty, but I always liked Uncle Joe the best.

I sometimes wondered if that was the drinking water.

Yeah, me too! I always did think it was weird that they were bathing in their water tank. LOL

Just another attempt to feminize the population with their estrogen discharge ;-(

Hard to believe, but Scooby Doo is 50 this year.  I used to hate that show until I realized that beneath all the cheap animation and cheaper jokes... the answer was never the supernatural one.  There was always a rational explanation -- it was never a ghost, alien, or monster.  It was the janitor or groundskeeper or the owner of the amusement park.

Okay, yeah, well, there was a (semi-)talking dog.  I figure most of the show was from Shaggy's viewpoint, and Bob knows I've been wasted enough to have a conversation with a pet before.  And then the buzz wears off and the rational explanation comes along.
