I would not have watched the new version. <BR/><BR/>I enjoyed the original's<BR/>transparency as a rip-off of TV's Batman (with guest villians)<BR/><BR/>Then again most Krofft shows after "Land of the Lost" were lifted from whatever was big at the time circa 76-79.<BR/><BR/>"Kapt Kool & the Kongs" was<BR/>Fonzie meets Partridge Family;<BR/>"Magic Mongo" was Jeannie meets Three's Company trio; "Wonder Bug" was Herbie the Love Bug meets Scooby Doo/Speed Buggy; "Bigfoot and Wildboy" was a ripoff of TV's Bionic Bigfoot (complete with an inexplicable bionic sound effect when he ran/leaped!).<BR/><BR/>For years after Electra Woman, I would see actor Norman Alden and yell: FRANK! at the screen. He will always be the electra duo's trusty<BR/>IT guy to me.<BR/><BR/>Michael Constantine of Room 222 (who played electra villian : The Sorcerer) got a great late-in-career break when he played the windex-loving Dad in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding".<BR/><BR/>oh, Brian! Sticks Downey! ofcourse.<BR/>haha*Mark*https://www.blogger.com/profile/18346580085766354332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6134892074202905358.post-3573386851582631432008-03-13T11:17:00.000-04:002008-03-13T11:17:00.000-04:00We didn't have a TV in the house when I was young,...We didn't have a TV in the house when I was young, too expensive. My younger sister loved the show. I saw things at my cousin's and my grandmother's. (Every Sunday I would watch "Ultraman" with my dad!

Richie, Fonzie and the gang have to deal with racism as their friends won't come to a party that features Richie's band with a black drummer.<BR/><BR/>P.S.
