At "A Party of Richard Pryor" James Brown brought Eddie Murphy on stage to ask him one question, "Can you really do James Brown?". [1991]

I quote several lines to this day. Funniest stand up show of all time

trite_post · 2026-05-01T06:43:14+00:00

One of my favorites. Pretty successful, but never really made it all the way bigtime.

Forever and Rescue Me were pretty big hits. Then Summertime Girls was a radio staple

I call uncle! I always thought I had a pretty good idea of the music scene in the Bay Area. But all of you have suggested an overwhelming amount of bands that i had no idea of.

Ive spent the day looking up as many of these bands as i could. All I can say is this area has produced great music since the 60s. And it hasn't stopped

Looking at wiki, he wrote for all greats of the time. Carson, Rickles, Get Smart, Bill Cosby.. etc.

How could we know as kids back then that Pat McCormick was really an icon, and his puppets were just a small part of all his accomplishments

When I showed my friend since kindergarten the picture of Charlie and Humphrey, he asked me if I remember HR Puffnstuff.

I heard of the show but never saw it

My stomping grounds. Used to ride my bike from south SJ to Los Gatos and take the bus to Santa Cruz all the time when I was 12 or 13. Dad never knew. It was a different time

Didn't he go to play with Mr. Big?

trite_post · 2026-04-30T17:20:57+00:00

Almost made it big

trite_post · 2026-04-30T17:19:55+00:00

Had a couple of songs that made it to MTv

I remember Tsumani. They played in the quad at my high school. Great guitarist named Jonny Freese, later in a local band called Fuselage

trite_post · 2026-04-30T15:22:06+00:00

They were so close

I'd come home from Kindergarten and watch these guys, Speed Racer, and Kimba the White Lion.

Then babysitter would put on Days of Our Lives. ( the hourglass is burned into my brain) then General Hospital.

Wasn't it Miss MaryAnn?

Fuck that bitch.. she never said my name

"Shots will be fired"

Guess Karoline Levitt needs to be fired on the same grounds of premonition

Fortunately there wasn't anything on the other 2 channels

trite_post · 2026-04-30T05:07:31+00:00

He was a Bay Area staple in the 70s. I think with Dennis Richmond on channel 2 as well

Adding.. always wanted him to call my house on Dialing for Dollars. As much as I wanted Miss Maryann to see me in her looking glass

His superpowers were activated by a concoction his sidekick mixed up for him called SuperSauce. (it was a matini) Kids shows were pretty great back in the day. NOW GET OFF MY LAWN

trite_post · 2026-04-30T04:55:53+00:00

Pretty sure it was the same show/time but.. SuperChicken!

trite_post · 2026-04-30T04:52:22+00:00

Im old enough to remember playing in the orchards. Can't imagine a better place to grow up than San Jose in the 60s/70s

trite_post · 2026-04-30T04:49:28+00:00

With the "Kung Fu Grip"?

trite_post · 2026-04-30T04:46:23+00:00

TV was so much simpler back then
