 Like No Other!, 2008-05-18
Lidsville is a little-known treasure from the early 1970s! The title song has stuck with me for over 36 years and I still LOVE it! This is a little, wacky show with the talents of Billie Hayes (Witchiepoo), Butch Patrick(Eddie Munster) and the ever-flambouyant, late Charles Nelson Reilly. A teenager named Mark (Butch Patrick), sneaks back into an area where a magician was performing his show at an amusement park. Mark falls into the magician's hat. When he hits bottom, he is in the zany land of Lidsville, surrounded by the good "Hat People". These "Hat People", in the shapes of a helmet, chef's hat, safari hat, party hat, etc., befriend him and join forces against HooDoo, the mad magician who lives in the "Top Hat" on the hill with his bumbling henchmen. HooDoo flies his real top hat that converts into a "Hattamaran"! HooDoo constantly abuses/over-taxes the good Hat People and foils Mark's (Butch Patrick) attepts to get back into his own world. Aided by HooDoo's bumbling former Genie, "Weenie the Genie" (Billie Hayes), who lives in a ring on Mark's finger, Mark makes attempts at getting skyward on a magic carpet and even in HooDoo's Hattamaran! There is plenty of word-play for adult enjoyment (the "Weather Bureau" is a chest of drawers-- a bureau-- whose drawers HooDoo can "zap" and create select weather conditions). I always sang the song to my children as they grew and, one fateful day in an electronics store, I found Lidsville! I bought it, brough it home and my kids love it, too! Silly, now, but they still love it. Mostly, Mom loves this silly little show that brings back wonderful memories of a 10 year old eager for Saturday mornings and the wonderful Lidsville to air! I only lament that the show lasted only one season. Okay, the set was wobbly and soooo obviously fake, but folks, this is a must-have for you and the youngsters in your life. I have two: one for myself to keep and one for my kids (since the 'bad' thing could happen to the disc). It's a nutty show that will make you smile, marvel in the creativity that only Sid and Marty Kroft could create! Enjoy!
