Okay, How does NOBODY remember this? It was the longest running show on the Disney channel and managed to be re-spawned in reruns back in the 90's. I'm honestly surprised seeing how the art community on the internet (especially DA) loves to take the most OBSCURE things and either fetishize or sexualize them, and yet THIS show was the one that was left on the bench. Which isn't to say that the show itself had any LANDMARK episodes or groundbreaking visuals to back it up, but there had to be at least one group of people out there that remembers this in some way shape or form. That being said, maybe it would have gotten a bigger fanbase if it was animated. I mean with Disney's recent reboot fetish, it would be interesting to see if they could do the reverse treatment for this show.

From left to right: Lionel (the carnival barker), Sebastian (ventriloquist) and Sly(his puppet), Q.T. Orangutan (Organ player), Lilly (trapeze artist), Barnaby (Clown), Fair Dinkum (Ringmaster)

    I thought I was the only one who DID remember this.

    I think this is the link you meant to post? (probably pasted it with the ellipsis?)

    Ah, childhood! Now here is the million dollar question: do you remember "Under the Umbrella Tree?"

    • Link

      Yes I do. I remember the theme song mostly and the creepy chipmunk/bear puppet.

        Awesome! Hmm, I always thought that Iggy the lizard puppet was creepy.
