Trivia:

This was the first Krofft Brothers show to be shot of film rather than videotape since "H.R. Pufnstuf" (1969), and the first Krofft show that was filmed on location.

Live-action Saturday morning program produced by Krofft Brothers - a lot of fun.

Unavailable now on television, this was a later entry for the Krofft company, and quite fun. The on-location filming was a big plus, and the stories, while of course far-fetched, were exciting for kids. A lot of innocent fun - something that's sadly lacking in today's kids entertainment market.
