Am I the only one who remembers Fleagle, Snorky, Bingo and Drooper??

I remember it, but I didn't like it very much.

That theme song is now stuck in my head.

Flipping like a pancake, popping like a cork,
Fleagle, Bingo, Drooper and, Snork

I've always wanted a six wheeled atv because of that show.

Tra-la-la

La-la-la-la

Tra-la-la, la-la-la-la-la!

unfortunately, you're not...i wish i could forget it.

I remember it but I was more of an H.R. Puffinstuff fan.

He's your friend when things get rough.

It says a lot when someone tells you they prefer a show about a young boy and his magic flute.

OK, I admit that I loved this show when I was a kid. For whatever reason, I watched it every time I could. (It was definitely better than, for example, "The New Zoo Revue." )

The Splits also had a series called "Danger Island" which starred a young Jan Michael Vincent and a character named "Chongo" who swung from vines and yelled, "Uh-oh, Chauuuun-go!!"

You're beginning to remind me of Colonel Frank Fitts.

Like all Chris Cooper characters, Col. Fitts lived by a code. In this case, not a particularly consistent code, but a code, nonetheless.

Right on Damn.

For whatever it is worth the humor of puffnstuff to me was not the fruity overtones of the flute and boy but the thinly veiled stoner references, much like Scooby Doo:

Also the fact that McDonald's ripped off most of the characters for its 70's children's ad campaigns with Mayor McBurger, Grimis the Hamburgler etc.

Four bananas,
three bananas,
two bananas,
one,
All the banana Splits in the hot hot sun,
Flippin' like a pancake,
poppin like a cork,
Fleagle, Bingo, Drooper and Snork...


(Bingo was always my favorite)

I never watched it, but some friends and I discovered it about two years ago on boomerang. We'd been drinking, and I don't think I've ever laughed that hard.

Bill Brasky hunted down and killed every member of The Banana Splits.

They all begged for their lives except Fleagle

try watching that on mushrooms....makes it even better.
