Goodies

Summary: oh, FINALLY!!!
Review: So, ok, I haven't seen the Goodies since I was a small child, back in the mists of the early'70s. However, the show left its mark, as I can still sing the theme song (Goodies! Goody, goody, yum-yum, etc.) and remember laughing hysterically. Can't wait to see this show again.

Its about time!
(now lets see about getting more "Fools & Horses" and "Last of the Summer Wine" seasons out over here!)

Summary: Can't wait to see the Goodies again! Where's Marty?
Review: The Goodies aired on American public television along with episodes of the Marty Feldman show in the summer of 1973 and became an instant hit with my family. Unfortunately, they never aired again in this country. I was nine years old at the time and the humor struck me perfectly. I remember an episode where they were all trapped in a room playing an endless game of "I spy with my little eye something beginning with..." But the thing that really cracked me up was seeing one of them finally lose it and start shouting "I'm a teapot!" over and over again. In my family when things get out of control and really start to melt down we still say "I'm a teapot!"

I am also anxiously awaiting the release of the old Marty Feldman shows and hope that the BBC gets around to it soon. Frankly these two older BBC programs are much funnier than any of the more recent material they have released. Pythonesque humor from the Golden Age of British comedy!
