CBC News: Prime Video to begin production on Mr. Dressup documentary.
Hells Ya !
I always heard he either didn't like kids or didn't like kid actors, which is why his costars were Casey and Finnegan. Interesting to see what the doc says.
Haven't seen that show for probably 40 years but two minutes thinking about it and I remember:
The wise owl
"to-whit to-wee, to-whit to-woo
I smoke weed every day,
You should too"
The Tickle Trunk. Who didn't want one as a kid?
While we're doing icons,
I bet every Canadian
(who long ago was a) kid knows the name of this rooster and giraffe and can probably do at least an approximation of the "and a rocking chair for those who like to rock" speech.
One more memory test for Canucks. Who knows what show ended with these lines:
"The castle lights are growing dim
There's no one left but me
and Him
When next we meet at Frankenstone
Don't come alone"
