About 10 years ago, I saw one episode of show on the Science Channel and I loved it - it was done with marionettes and was set underwater and there was a mute character in it. (Something about a mute puppet...that really made me decide that the show kicked ass.) I was never able to find out the name of the show and have spent the last 10 years asking anybody I converse with if they know the name of the show. They either look at me like I'm nuts or just say no. I was wracking my brain the other night, trying to find it and all of my google searches were leading me nowhere but then I got the bright idea to drop Scotty Ice a line and ask him if he'd heard of it.
And angels cried happy tears for me when his guess of Thunderbirds led to the correct show: Stingray. A great big "Thanks, Scotty!" for helping me out with this. I thought I was gonna die without seeing this fantastic little show ever again.
Guess who has ordered the whole series for cheap cheap off of Amazon.com?
I am so pleased. I can't wait for it to get here.
All you had to do is ask your sweety 5 years ago and you would have cut your head banging in half. I guess we are two peas in one pod, that show kicks much ass.

Chiqui,
ReplyDeleteI used to watch that show a long, long
time ago. I must have been seven or eight
so that show is at least forty years old.
Your mention of it brings back a lot of
memories of my childhood.

OOLOTH - I'd began to wonder if I'd dreamt I'd watched the show since I wasn't finding anything about it!
ReplyDeleteScotty Ice - You're a good man, Charlie Brown :)
Titus - Okay, I know I didn't ask you about it because I figured since you were from "away" that you'd never have seen it. Maybe I should've asked, huh?
Mike - I'm hoping this show will be as interesting as I remembered. And if not, I'll just eBay the DVDs.
ReplyDeleteMute marionettes undrwatr ... Who was th creative genyus bhand that show ... Dr Timothy Leary?

ReplyDeleteYou shoulda asked me! I used to love Stingray when I was a kid.
ReplyDelete"Marina, Aqua Marina, What are these strange enchantments that start whenever you're near?"
Who am I kidding. I'm still in love with Marina!
ReplyDeleteAnaglyph - What a soothing song! It's okay that you love Marina - Joey Polanski has a thing for a cartoon, you know.
ReplyDeleteJoey Polanski - Your feeble human hands will offer no protection against my snapping jaws!
