Rid, I remember Rockem, Sockem Robots! Along the lines of G.I. Joe, there was also Johnny West! How about change for a Buck @ McDonalds? Hamburger, fries and drink. That's what I call a Value menu!

There was another female smurfe close to the end of the programs run.... I can't remember her name though... I want to say swampette, but I think maybe that was a nickname for one of the girls who rode my bus... LOL... Anyway, who remembers Mr. Green Jeans, and Mr. Moose... oh, and Mr. Goodbody.

Also, do you remember THIS song...

Brush your teeth, round and round

Circle small gums and all.

A small soft toothbrush the round and round way,

Keeps your gums healthy and stops tooth decay,

so clean very carefully three times a day,

go round, and round.

Yep... I'm old.

Speed Racer has had at least 2 incarnations, and is back for a 3rd round, doing a commercial for Geico Insurance.

Trixie: "Speed, the bridge is out! but I have some good news, I can save a bundle by getting Geico!"
