Son of Svengoolie - "Dr. Rābbees & Transfusion Punch" (1982)

Views: 1532

Here's another classic Son of Sven bit which most likely aired during episode 129 featuring the movie "Tales of Terror" - Dr. Rābbees (Dr. Pepper parody) and Transfusion Punch (Hawaiian Punch parody).

These bits were recycled from an earlier show - anyone know when they appeared originally? Did they always get shown together back-to-back like that?

The backup singers during the Dr. Rabies skit are (from left) Gary Zeleny (WFLD Artist), Susan Uyeda (WFLD A...

Just unearthed some more vintage Sven - Here's the song and commercial break from Son of Svengoolie episode #122 showing the original "Dracula" on WFLD Channel 32. This is actually the earliest off-air recording yet found of a Son of Svengoolie episode. (There are earlier bits, but those are from studio masters, or are just promos - not from an off-air episode.) It's too bad more of this stuff hasn't turned up yet.

Unfortunately, the person who recorded the show did it in ...

Views: 920

Here's the ending for an episode of The Honeymooners on WFLD Channel 32.
